      <title>CVE-2023-4623 — Use-after-free in Linux kernel's net/sched: sch_hfsc (HFSC qdisc traffic control) component</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2023-4623</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux Kernel&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel&amp;#39;s net/sched: sch_hfsc (HFSC qdisc traffic control) component can be exploited to achieve local privilege escalation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If a class with a link-sharing curve (i.e. with the HFSC_FSC flag set) has a parent without a link-sharing curve, then init_vf() will call vttree_insert() on the parent, but vttree_remove() will be skipped in update_vf(). This leaves a dangling pointer that can cause a use-after-free.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We recommend upgrading past commit b3d26c5702c7d6c45456326e56d2ccf3f103e60f.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
