CVE-2022-50259
Estado: ModificadaMedia (4.7)—
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf, sockmap: fix race in sock_map_free()
sock_map_free() calls release_sock(sk) without owning a reference on the socket. This can cause use-after-free as syzbot found [1]
Jakub Sitnicki already took care of a similar issue in sock_hash_free() in commit 75e68e5bf2c7 ("bpf, sockhash: Synchronize delete from bucket list on map free")
