CVE-2023-53373

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

Description The Linux kernel contains an issue where the seqiv function does not correctly handle the EBUSY return value when the caller specifies MAY BACKLOG. This can lead to a use-after-free condition triggered by backlogged requests. The seqiv function is designed to handle the EINPROGERSS return value, but fails to treat EBUSY similarly, resulting in memory being freed prematurely.

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