CVE-2024-26739
HIGHLinux Kernel 4.19-5.10.238 5.11-5.15.182 5.16-6.1.136 6.2-6.6.19 6.7-6.7.7 - Use-After-Free in act_mirred Redirect
Title source: llmDescription
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/sched: act_mirred: don't override retval if we already lost the skb If we're redirecting the skb, and haven't called tcf_mirred_forward(), yet, we need to tell the core to drop the skb by setting the retcode to SHOT. If we have called tcf_mirred_forward(), however, the skb is out of our hands and returning SHOT will lead to UaF. Move the retval override to the error path which actually need it.
