Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux Kernel versions prior to v5.17.15

Description The issue concerns the tipc module, where the length of the bearer name attribute is not properly checked. This is an automated identification of a potential security issue, and its actual impact and plausibility of attack have not been proven yet.
