Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
xsk: Fix fragment node deletion to prevent buffer leak<br />
<br />
After commit b692bf9a7543 ("xsk: Get rid of xdp_buff_xsk::xskb_list_node"),<br />
the list_node field is reused for both the xskb pool list and the buffer<br />
free list, this causes a buffer leak as described below.<br />
<br />
xp_free() checks if a buffer is already on the free list using<br />
list_empty(&xskb->list_node). When list_del() is used to remove a node<br />
from the xskb pool list, it doesn&#39;t reinitialize the node pointers.<br />
This means list_empty() will return false even after the node has been<br />
removed, causing xp_free() to incorrectly skip adding the buffer to the<br />
free list.<br />
<br />
Fix this by using list_del_init() instead of list_del() in all fragment<br />
handling paths, this ensures the list node is reinitialized after removal,<br />
allowing the list_empty() to work correctly.
