In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tipc: hold a reference to nodes found by link name
tipc_node_find_by_name() returns a node after dropping its RCU read lock
without taking a reference. The LINK_SET, LINK_GET and LINK_RESET_STATS
handlers then lock and access the node, racing with timer-driven cleanup of
a down peer. Generic netlink serialization does not exclude the node
timer.
The following interleaving can leave a handler using a freed node:
CPU 0: find the node under RCU and release the node read lock
CPU 1: tipc_node_timeout() clears the links and unlinks the down node
CPU 1: drop the list and timer references, queuing tipc_node_free()
CPU 0: leave the RCU read-side critical section
CPU 1: complete the grace period and free the node
CPU 0: acquire the node lock through the stale pointer
LINK_SET also uses the node's media address after releasing the node lock,
when passing queued packets to tipc_bearer_xmit().
KASAN on v7.3-rc5 reported:

Acquire a reference to the selected node with kref_get_unless_zero() before
leaving RCU, returning NULL if the node has already been released. Release
that reference on every caller exit after the last node access, including
transmission in LINK_SET. Keep the existing link lookup order and locking
so concurrent link removal still takes the existing error paths.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Transparent Inter-Process Communication (TIPC) subsystem. This flaw allows a local user to cause a denial of service (DoS) or potentially escalate privileges on the system. The issue occurs because link configuration handlers release read locks without properly incrementing the node reference counter during node lookups. Consequently, a race condition with background cleanup routines can lead to a use-after-free condition when accessing stale node pointers.
