Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: rose: fix invalid array index in rose_kill_by_device() rose_kill_by_device() collects sockets into a local array[] and then
iterates over them to disconnect sockets bound to a device being brought
down. The loop mistakenly indexes array[cnt] instead of array[i]. For cnt <
ARRAY_SIZE(array), this reads an uninitialized entry; for cnt ==
ARRAY_SIZE(array), it is an out-of-bounds read. Either case can lead to
an invalid socket pointer dereference and also leaks references taken
via sock_hold(). Fix the index to use i.

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information leaks. For the oldstable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed in version 6.1.162-1.
