The vulnerability exists due to a race condition within the inet6_stream_ops() and inet6_dgram_ops() functions. A local user can exploit the race and escalate privileges on the system.


2) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3649)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the nilfs2 filesystem driver in nilfs_new_inode() function in fs/nilfs2/inode.c in Linux kernel. A remote attacker can trick the victim into mounting a specially crafted image, trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.


3) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3586)

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
