Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-05-01 15:05:14 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: sched: Fix use after free in red_enqueue()

We can't use "skb" again after passing it to qdisc_enqueue().  This is
basically identical to commit 2f09707d0c97 ("sch_sfb: Also store skb
len before calling child enqueue").
