(In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: n ...)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/sched: sch_teql: restore skb->dev on the slave failure path teql_master_xmit() sets skb->dev = slave before calling the slave's ndo_start_xmit(), but never restores it when that transmit fails. The skb then walks on to the next slave still pointing at the previous one. If a later slave has no resolved neighbour, teql_resolve() hands the skb to neigh_event_send(), which queues it on that neighbour's arp_queue with the stale skb->dev. skb->dev holds no reference, so deleting the previous slave frees the net_device while the skb is still queued. Whatever runs next on that skb - arp_error_report() on timeout, or neigh_direct_output() -> dev_queue_xmit() once the neighbour resolves - causes a UAF like the one below: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in __icmp_send (net/ipv4/icmp.c:914 (discriminator 2)) Read of size 4 at addr ffff888106e100b0 by task flood_packet/527 CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 527 Comm: flood_packet Not taint
