Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2025-12-24 11:15 - Updated: 2025-12-29 15:58
Severity ?
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mrp: introduce active flags to prevent UAF when applicant uninit
The caller of del_timer_sync must prevent restarting of the timer, If
we have no this synchronization, there is a small probability that the
cancellation will not be successful.
And syzbot report the fellowing crash:

To fix it, we can introduce a new active flags to make sure the timer will
not restart.
