Description Mauro Matteo Cascella 2023-12-22 18:42:28 UTC 
A use-after-free vulnerability was discovered within the netfilter subsystem of the Linux kernel. If the catchall element is garbage-collected when the pipapo set is removed, the element can be deactivated twice. This causes a use-after-free on an NFT_CHAIN object or NFT_OBJECT object. A local unprivileged user could use this vulnerability to escalate their privileges on the system.
