Detailed vulnerability description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the tipc_buf_append() function in net/tipc/msg.c when processing fragmented TIPC messages. A remote attacker can send specially crafted packets to the system, trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system in the context of the kernel.
