Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tipc: re-fetch skb cb after tipc_msg_validate As the call trace shows, the original skb was freed in tipc_msg_validate(), and dereferencing the old skb cb would cause an use-after-free crash. BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in tipc_crypto_rcv_complete+0x1835/0x2240 [tipc] Call Trace: <IRQ> tipc_crypto_rcv_complete+0x1835/0x2240 [tipc] tipc_crypto_rcv+0xd32/0x1ec0 [tipc] tipc_rcv+0x744/0x1150 [tipc] ...
