Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pfcp: fix socket lifetime on netdevice registration failure
pfcp_newlink() creates the UDP socket before register_netdevice().
If registration fails after pfcp_dev_init() succeeds, the core calls
pfcp_dev_uninit(), which releases the socket and clears pfcp->sk.
The newlink error path then releases it again, causing a NULL pointer
dereference. This was observed with failslab fault injection:
FAULT_INJECTION: forcing a failure.
kobject: kobject_add_internal failed for pfcp0 (error: -12 parent: net)
BUG: KASAN: null-ptr-deref in udp_tunnel_sock_release+0x1c/0x50
Read of size 8 at addr 0000000000000120 by task ip/1037

Return from pfcp_del_sock() if pfcp->sk is NULL.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Packet Forwarding Control Protocol (PFCP) driver. When creating a PFCP network interface, a failure during device registration triggers error handling that attempts to release an internal network socket twice. This improper cleanup results in a null pointer dereference, allowing a local user with network administration privileges to crash the system and cause a Denial of Service (DoS).
