Description OSIDB Bzimport 2024-10-21 21:01:59 UTC 
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+0xd32/0x1ec0 [tipc]
   tipc_rcv+0x744/0x1150 [tipc]

This patch fixes it by re-fetching the skb cb from the new allocated skb
after calling tipc_msg_validate().
