CVE-2024-50168

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: net/sun3_82586: corrige una posible pérdida de memoria en sun3_82586_send_packet(). sun3_82586_send_packet() devuelve NETDEV_TX_OK sin liberar skb en caso de que skb->len sea demasiado largo, agrega dev_kfree_skb() para solucionarlo.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/sun3_82586: fix potential memory leak in sun3_82586_send_packet() The sun3_82586_send_packet() returns NETDEV_TX_OK without freeing skb in case of skb->len being too long, add dev_kfree_skb() to fix it.

Ye Zhang and Nicolas Wu discovered that the io_uring subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly handle locking for rings with IOPOLL, leading to a double-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.
