In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm: input: hold netns during deferred transport reinjection
Transport-mode reinjection stores a struct net pointer in skb->cb and
uses it later from xfrm_trans_reinject(). That pointer must stay valid
until the deferred callback runs.
Take a netns reference when queueing deferred reinjection work and drop
it after the callback completes. Use maybe_get_net() so the queueing
path does not revive a namespace that is already being torn down.
This keeps the existing workqueue design and fixes the netns lifetime
handling in one place for all users of xfrm_trans_queue_net().
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's xfrm input component. The transport-mode reinjection process, which handles network packet re-injection, stores a network namespace pointer that must remain valid until a deferred callback completes. However, a missing reference count for the network namespace during this deferred operation could lead to a use-after-free vulnerability. This could allow an attacker to potentially cause a system crash or other unpredictable behavior if the network namespace is deallocated prematurely.
