CVE-2022-50259

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)

Description A race condition exists in the sock map free() function within the kernel's bpf and sockmap implementation. Specifically, sock map free() calls release sock(sk) without holding a reference to the socket, potentially leading to a use-after-free condition. This issue was identified through testing and is similar to a previously addressed problem in sock hash free().

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
