CVSS 3.1
8.8 highCVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:HCVE-2021-47668
High (8.8) in linux linux kernel. EPSS 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: dev: can_restart: fix use after free bug
After calling netif_rx_ni(skb), dereferencing skb is unsafe.
Especially, the can_frame cf which aliases skb memory is accessed
after the netif_rx_ni() in:
stats->rx_bytes += cf->len;
Reordering the lines solves the issue.
