Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mlxsw: spectrum_acl_tcam: Fix possible use-after-free during activity update

The rule activity update delayed work periodically traverses the list of
configured rules and queries their activity from the device.

As part of this task it accesses the entry pointed by 'ventry->entry',
but this entry can be changed concurrently by the rehash delayed work,
leading to a use-after-free [1].

Fix by closing the race and perform the activity query under the
'vregion->lock' mutex.

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: mlxsw: spectrum_acl_tcam: corrige posible use after free durante la actualización de la actividad. El trabajo retrasado de la actualización de la actividad de la regla recorre periódicamente la lista de reglas configuradas y consulta su actividad desde el dispositivo. Como parte de esta tarea, accede a la entrada señalada por 'ventry->entry', pero esta entrada puede cambiarse simultáneamente mediante el trabajo retrasado del rehash, lo que lleva a un use after free [1]. Para solucionarlo, cierre la ejecución y realice la consulta de actividad en el mutex 'vregion->lock'.
