"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet: ethernet: mtk_eth_soc: Fix use-after-free in metadata dst teardown\n\nmtk_free_dev() calls metadata_dst_free() which frees the metadata_dst\nwith kfree() immediately, bypassing the RCU grace period.\nIn the RX path, skb_dst_set_noref() sets a non-refcounted pointer from\nthe skb to the metadata_dst. This function requires RCU read-side\nprotection and the dst must remain valid until all RCU readers complete.\nSince metadata_dst_free() calls kfree() directly, a use-after-free can\noccur if any skb still holds a noref pointer to the dst when the driver\ntears it down.\nReplace metadata_dst_free() with dst_release() which properly goes\nthrough the refcount path: when the refcount drops to zero, it schedules\nthe actual free via call_rcu_hurry(), ensuring all RCU readers have\ncompleted before the memory is freed."

"value": "AV:N - Packets received on the affected MediaTek Ethernet/DSA data path can cause skbs to carry the vulnerable non-refcounted metadata dst. In a severe reasonable deployment, this is reachable by an unauthenticated network peer sending traffic to an exposed Ethernet interface.\nAC:L - The RX path reliably assigns the metadata dst under the DSA hardware untagging conditions, and the bug is a straightforward lifetime violation during teardown. Given the requirement to choose higher severity when uncertain, the teardown timing does not justify AC:H.\nPR:N - The attacker needs no credentials to send packets that enter the affected RX path and populate skbs with the stale metadata pointer. Administrative teardown is a device lifecycle condition, not an attacker privilege requirement.\nUI:N - No victim user must open a file or perform a protocol-level action for malicious packets to enter the vulnerable path. The vulnerable condition can occur during normal device teardown or cleanup.\nS:U - The corruption occurs within the same kernel security authority as the affected network driver and networking stack. There is no guest-to-host, IOMMU, or separate-scope boundary crossing.\nC:H - This is a kernel use-after-free of a metadata_dst object referenced from skbs. Such memory corruption can plausibly be shaped into kernel memory disclosure.\nI:H - A kernel use-after-free can plausibly be exploited through heap reuse to corrupt controlled kernel objects or hijack control/data flow. Under the required higher-severity rule, integrity impact is High.\nA:H - The stale dst pointer can be dereferenced by GRO/DSA/network stack processing after immediate kfree. Even without full exploitation, this can cause kernel oops or panic."
