Doc Text:
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Generic Receive Offload (GRO) feature, where packets processed with a fragment list are not properly orphaned due to incorrect handling of socket references. This vulnerability can cause system instability or kernel bugs. The issue has been fixed by making sure that socket references are correctly removed during packet processing. Users should update their kernel to the patched version to mitigate this risk.
