Description

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Controller Area Network (CAN) ISO-TP (isotp) module. This vulnerability, known as a use-after-free, occurs when the system attempts to free a memory region while it is still being used. A local attacker could trigger this condition by sending a signal that interrupts a specific waiting process during a close operation. This can lead to memory corruption, potentially causing the system to crash (denial of service) or behave unpredictably.
