Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
eventpoll: defer struct eventpoll free to RCU grace period
In certain situations, ep_free() in eventpoll.c will kfree the epi->ep
eventpoll struct while it still being used by another concurrent thread.
Defer the kfree() to an RCU callback to prevent UAF.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's eventpoll component. In certain situations, the ep_free() function in eventpoll.c can prematurely free the eventpoll data structure while it is still being used by another concurrent thread. This use-after-free (UAF) vulnerability could allow a local attacker to cause a denial of service or potentially escalate privileges.
