Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2025-12-06 22:15 - Updated: 2026-07-30 06:24
Severity

Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tipc: Fix use-after-free in tipc_mon_reinit_self(). syzbot reported use-after-free of tipc_net(net)->monitors[] in tipc_mon_reinit_self(). [0] The array is protected by RTNL, but tipc_mon_reinit_self() iterates over it without RTNL. tipc_mon_reinit_self() is called from tipc_net_finalize(), which is always under RTNL except for tipc_net_finalize_work(). Let's hold RTNL in tipc_net_finalize_work().

Drag nodes to arrange them. Double-click a related vulnerability to open it, or a source to visit its link. The Physics button on the left tunes the layout and the simulation; the legend at the bottom left hides or shows nodes by kind and by sighting type.

Forecast uses a logistic model when the trend is rising, or an exponential decay model when the trend is falling. Fitted via linearized least squares.
