| Subject: CVE-2021-47017: ath10k: Fix a use after free in ath10k_htc_send_bundle |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| ath10k: Fix a use after free in ath10k_htc_send_bundle |
| |
| In ath10k_htc_send_bundle, the bundle_skb could be freed by |
| dev_kfree_skb_any(bundle_skb). But the bundle_skb is used later |
| by bundle_skb->len. |
| |
| As skb_len = bundle_skb->len, my patch replaces bundle_skb->len to |
| skb_len after the bundle_skb was freed. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2021-47017 to this issue. |

| Mitigation |
| ========== |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest |
| stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual |
| changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel |
| release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or |
| supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to |
| the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this |
| issue can be found at these commits: |
