Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> net: tun: unlink NAPI from device on destruction<br /> <br /> Syzbot found a race between tun file and device destruction.<br /> NAPIs live in struct tun_file which can get destroyed before<br /> the netdev so we have to del them explicitly. The current<br /> code is missing deleting the NAPI if the queue was detached<br /> first.
