Summary

In the Linux kernel, the net/dibs module has a double-free and use-after-free (UAF) issue with dmb_clientid_arr. An interrupt handler can be active after dibs_dev_del() and still access the array. In case of failure in dibs_dev_add(), the array is freed twice.

Risk Assessment

The risk includes system crashes or unauthorized memory access, potentially leading to system integrity compromise.

Recommendation

It is recommended to apply the kernel patch that moves the freeing of dmb_clientid_arr to dibs_dev_release() after the last reference.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/dibs: Correct freeing of dmb_clientid_arr A dibs device interrupt handler can be active after dibs_dev_del() and may still access dmb_clientid_arr. (UAF) In case of a failure in dibs_dev_add() being called by dibs_lo_dev_probe() dmb_clientid_arr is freed twice (double free). Free dmb_clientid_arr in dibs_dev_release() after last reference is gone. Note that allocating in dibs_dev_add() instead of dibs_dev_alloc() is ok for now, because no dmbs can be registered before dibs_dev_add().
