| Subject: CVE-2022-48782: mctp: fix use after free |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| mctp: fix use after free |
| |
| Clang static analysis reports this problem |
| route.c:425:4: warning: Use of memory after it is freed |
| trace_mctp_key_acquire(key); |
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
| When mctp_key_add() fails, key is freed but then is later |
| used in trace_mctp_key_acquire(). Add an else statement |
| to use the key only when mctp_key_add() is successful. |

| 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: |
