The ppp->channels list can change between list_empty() and\n list_first_entry(), as ppp_lock() is not held. If the only channel\n is deleted in ppp_disconnect_channel(), list_first_entry() may\n access an empty head or a freed entry, and trigger a panic.\n\n2. pch->chan can be NULL. When ppp_unregister_channel() is called,\n pch->chan is set to NULL before pch is removed from ppp->channels.\n\nFix these by using a lockless RCU approach:\n- Use list_first_or_null_rcu() to safely test and access the first list\n entry.\n- Convert list modifications on ppp->channels to their RCU variants and\n add synchronize_net() after removal.\n- Check for a NULL pch->chan before dereferencing it." } ], "metrics": [ { "cvssV3_1": { "version": "3.1", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H", "baseScore": 9.8, "baseSeverity": "CRITICAL" } } ], "affected": [
