CVE-2021-47669

Estado: AnalizadaAlta (7.8)—

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

can: vxcan: vxcan_xmit: fix use after free bug

After calling netif_rx_ni(skb), dereferencing skb is unsafe. Especially, the canfd_frame cfd which aliases skb memory is accessed after the netif_rx_ni().
