Threats tagged 'ghsa-wjw6-9w8q-rvjv'

A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's network scheduler (net/sched) related to the handling of RTM_NEWQDISC requests has been resolved. The flaw involves improper freeing of queueing disciplines (qdiscs) after failed creation when an invalid TCA_RATE causes estimator setup to fail. This can lead to a use-after-free condition where a qdisc is freed while still potentially in use by tc_run().
