CVE-2021-47598

Disclosure Date: June 19, 2024
Add MITRE ATT&CK tactics and techniques that apply to this CVE.

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

sch_cake: do not call cake_destroy() from cake_init()

qdiscs are not supposed to call their own destroy() method
from init(), because core stack already does that.

syzbot was able to trigger use after free:
