In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
forcedeth: fix UAF of txrx_stats in nv_remove
nv_remove() frees the per-CPU txrx_stats before unregister_netdev().
Until unregister completes, ndo_get_stats64, the NAPI/xmit data path,
and nv_close()/drain may still access txrx_stats, leading to a
use-after-free.
Free the stats only after unregister_netdev().
A flaw was found in the forcedeth component of the Linux kernel. The nv_remove() function frees the per-CPU txrx_stats before unregister_netdev() completes. This timing issue allows other functions, such as ndo_get_stats64, the NAPI/xmit data path, and nv_close()/drain, to access the freed memory, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. This could potentially lead to system instability or denial of service.
