Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-09-23 07:01:19 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

hsr: hold rcu and dev lock for hsr_get_port_ndev

hsr_get_port_ndev calls hsr_for_each_port, which need to hold rcu lock.
On the other hand, before return the port device, we need to hold the
device reference to avoid UaF in the caller function.
