Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: dsa: mxl862xx: fix use-after-free of DSA ports in crc_err_work Upon an MDIO CRC error mxl862xx_crc_err_work_fn() walks the DSA ports and closes the CPU port conduits: dsa_switch_for_each_cpu_port(dp, priv->ds) dev_close(dp->conduit); mxl862xx_remove() unregisters the switch before cancelling this work: set_bit(MXL862XX_FLAG_WORK_STOPPED, &priv->flags); cancel_delayed_work_sync(&priv->stats_work); dsa_unregister_switch(ds); mxl862xx_host_shutdown(priv); dsa_unregister_switch() frees the dsa_port objects. If a CRC error schedules the work during teardown it can run after the ports have been freed and derefere
