Summary
Zheng Wang discovered that the Broadcom FullMAC WLAN driver in the Linux
kernel contained a race condition during device removal, leading to a use-
after-free vulnerability. A physically proximate attacker could possibly
use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2023-47233)
Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel.
An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.
This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems:
- Block layer subsystem;
- Userspace I/O drivers;
- Ceph distributed file system;
- Ext4 file system;
- JFS file system;
- NILFS2 file system;
- Bluetooth subsystem;
- Networking core;
- IPv4 networking;
- IPv6 networking;
- Logical Link layer;
- MAC80211 subsystem;
- Netlink;
- NFC subsystem;
- Tomoyo security module;
