Title
firewire: net: fix use after free in fwnet_finish_incoming_packet()
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: firewire: net: fix use after free in fwnet_finish_incoming_packet() The netif_rx() function frees the skb so we can't dereference it to save the skb->len.
