Описание
Use-after-free vulnerability in drivers/net/ppp/ppp_generic.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5.2 allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash, or spinlock) or possibly have unspecified other impact by removing a network namespace, related to the ppp_register_net_channel and ppp_unregister_channel functions.
A use after free vulnerability was found in ppp_unregister_channel function. This is triggered when network namespace is removed while ppp_async channel is still registered in it and ppp_unregister_channel() tries to access its per-netns data in the defunct namespace. An attacker controlling this data could potentially denial of service the system.
Отчет
This issue affects the Linux kernels as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, 7 realtime and MRG-2 kernels and does not plan to be addressed in a future update
