Once the timer is\nstarted, there is a risk of a race condition if the module or device\nis removed, triggering the ether3_remove function to perform cleanup.\nThe sequence of operations that may lead to a UAF bug is as follows:\n\nCPU0                                    CPU1\n\n                      |  ether3_ledoff\nether3_remove         |\n  free_netdev(dev);   |\n  put_devic           |\n  kfree(dev);         |\n |  ether3_outw(priv(dev)->regs.config2 |= CFG2_CTRLO, REG_CONFIG2);\n                      | // use dev\n\nFix it by ensuring that the timer is canceled before proceeding with\nthe cleanup in ether3_remove.","published":"2024-10-21T13:15:05.000Z","lastModified":"2026-10-15T01:18:58.000Z","status":"Modified","sourceIdentifier":"416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":7,"severity":"HIGH","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},"cwe":["CWE-416"],"affected":["linux/linux kernel"],"epss":{"score":0.00227,"percentile":0.13295,"date":"2026-10-26","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"high","text":"High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.23%).
