LIN1023-7067 : Security Advisory - linux - CVE-2024-40937

Created: Jul 13, 2024    Updated: Jul 17, 2024
Resolved Date: Jul 14, 2024
Found In Version: 10.23.30.1
Fix Version: 10.23.30.12
Severity: Standard
Applicable for: Wind River Linux LTS 23
Component/s: Kernel

Description

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

gve: Clear napi->skb before dev_kfree_skb_any()

gve_rx_free_skb incorrectly leaves napi->skb referencing an skb after it
is freed with dev_kfree_skb_any(). This can result in a subsequent call
to napi_get_frags returning a dangling pointer.

Fix this by clearing napi->skb before the skb is freed.
