Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> batman-adv: bla: prevent use-after-free when deleting claims<br /> <br /> When batadv_bla_del_backbone_claims() removes all claims for a backbone, it<br /> does this by dropping the link entry in the hash list. This list entry<br /> itself was one of the references which need to be dropped at the same time<br /> via batadv_claim_put().<br /> <br /> But the batadv_claim_put() must not be done before the last access to the<br /> claim object in this function. Otherwise the claim might be freed already<br /> by the batadv_claim_release() function before the list entry was dropped.
