CVE-2021-28038 (GCVE-0-2021-28038)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2021-03-05 00:00 – Updated: 2024-08-03 21:33
VLAI
Summary
An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.11.3, as used with Xen PV. A certain part of the netback driver lacks necessary treatment of errors such as failed memory allocations (as a result of changes to the handling of grant mapping errors). A host OS denial of service may occur during misbehavior of a networking frontend driver. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2021-26931.
