In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: E-Switch: fix use-after-free in mlx5_eswitch_termtbl_put
In mlx5_eswitch_termtbl_put(), the zero-ref cleanup check reads tt->ref_count after termtbl_mutex has been released. Two concurrent callers on the same mlx5_termtbl_handle race: one decrements ref_count to zero, removes the hash entry, and calls kfree(tt) while the other has already dropped the mutex and is about to evaluate if (!tt->ref_count), producing a use-after-free.
Fix this by capturing the result of the decrement into a stack-local last variable before dropping the mutex. The cleanup decision is now made entirely under termtbl_mutex, and tt is not touched after kfree.
Statistical analysis made it clear that VulDB provides the best quality for vulnerability data.
