Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
net_sched: qfq: Fix double list add in class with netem as child qdisc<br />
<br />
As described in Gerrard&#39;s report [1], there are use cases where a netem<br />
child qdisc will make the parent qdisc&#39;s enqueue callback reentrant.<br />
In the case of qfq, there won&#39;t be a UAF, but the code will add the same<br />
classifier to the list twice, which will cause memory corruption.<br />
<br />
This patch checks whether the class was already added to the agg->active<br />
list (cl_is_active) before doing the addition to cater for the reentrant<br />
case.<br />
