Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.
1) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-43232)
CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to use-after-free in the FarSync WAN driver tasklet handlers when detaching a FarSync T-series card while scheduled tasklets are still running or pending. A local user can trigger device removal during tasklet processing to cause a denial of service.
The issue is caused by a race condition between cleanup in fst_remove_one() and the fst_tx_task or fst_int_task tasklets accessing fst_card_info in fst_process_tx_work_q() or fst_process_int_work_q().
