Doc Text:
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's inside-secure/eip93 cryptographic driver. This vulnerability occurs during the driver detachment process, where a programming error leads to the same hash algorithm being unregistered multiple times. This issue can cause a kernel panic, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS) for the system. A local user or process could potentially trigger this flaw.
