LIN1022-6127 : Security Advisory - linux - CVE-2023-6270

Created: Jan 4, 2024 Updated: Jan 6, 2026

Resolved Date: Jun 24, 2024

Found In Version: 10.22.33.1

Severity: Standard

Applicable for: Wind River Linux LTS 22

Component/s: Kernel

Description

A flaw was found in the ATA over Ethernet (AoE) driver in the Linux kernel. The aoecmd_cfg_pkts() function improperly updates the refcnt on `struct net_device`, and a use-after-free can be triggered by racing between the free on the struct and the access through the `skbtxq` global queue. This could lead to a denial of service condition or potential code execution.
