Memory leak in Linux kernel - CVE-2022-48757

Vulnerability identifier: #VU92886

CSH Severity: Low

CVSS v4: 6.8 [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]

CVE-ID: CVE-2022-48757

CWE-ID: CWE-401

Exploitation vector: Local access

Exploit availability: No public exploit available

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

The vulnerability exists due to memory leak within the fanout_add() and packet_create() functions in net/packet/af_packet.c, within the ptype_seq_show() function in net/core/net-procfs.c. A local user can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
