Details

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

tipc: re-fetch skb cb after tipcmsgvalidate

As the call trace shows, the original skb was freed in tipcmsgvalidate(), and dereferencing the old skb cb would cause an use-after-free crash.

BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in tipccryptorcvcomplete+0x1835/0x2240 [tipc] Call Trace: <IRQ> tipccryptorcvcomplete+0x1835/0x2240 [tipc] tipccryptorcv+0xd32/0x1ec0 [tipc] tipcrcv+0x744/0x1150 [tipc] ...

This patch fixes it by re-fetching the skb cb from the new allocated skb after calling tipcmsgvalidate().
