Description

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's networking scheduler. A race condition, which is a problem that occurs when multiple operations try to access the same resource at the same time, exists when network filter operations are run concurrently. This can lead to a Use-After-Free (UAF) vulnerability, where the system attempts to use memory that has already been released. This could potentially allow an attacker to cause system instability or execute arbitrary code.
