Description

A flaw was found in the `batman-adv` module of the Linux kernel. During the shutdown process of the `tp_meter` sender, an atomic counter can underflow due to multiple decrements. This can cause the sender kernel thread to loop indefinitely, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability if the associated network interface is removed. This issue could result in system instability or a denial of service.
