In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tipc: restrict socket queue dumps in enqueue tracepoints
tipc_sk_enqueue() runs with sk->sk_lock.slock held while the socket is
owned by user context. The spinlock protects the backlog queue in this
path, but it does not serialize against the socket owner consuming or
purging sk_receive_queue.

The TIPC_DUMP_ALL tracepoints in tipc_sk_enqueue() also dump
sk_receive_queue and can therefore dereference skbs that the socket
owner has already dequeued or freed. Restrict these dumps to
TIPC_DUMP_SK_BKLGQ, which matches the queue protected by the held
spinlock.
Keep the change limited to the enqueue path, where the unsafe queue dump
is reachable while the socket is owned by user context.
What the EG score is made of (scorer v4.0: the three questions the 0–10 score mixes, published apart · methodology)
The EG score (9.8): severity, escalated by confirmed exploitation. This CVE's 9.8 is its impact severity (EG Severity), not escalated.

A fix is available. Apply it within your standard update timelines at low or medium mission impact and sooner than that at high.
Exploitation none (CISA Vulnrichment) · Automatable yes (CISA Vulnrichment) · Technical impact total (CISA Vulnrichment). All three are CISA's SSVC values (Vulnrichment). EchelonGraph applied CISA's decision table to them; CISA publishes SSVC inputs and the table, not a decision for each CVE. Mission impact is CISA's Mission & Well-being decision point, and only you can judge it. CISA's table makes it high when Mission Prevalence is Essential — the vulnerable component "directly provides capabilities that constitute at least one MEF for at least one entity" (MEF: mission essential function) — or when Public Well-Being Impact is Irreversible: "multiple fatalities are likely", the cyber-physical system "is likely lost or destroyed", "extreme or serious externalities" are imposed on other parties, or social systems such as elections or the financial grid "are destabilized and potentially collapse".

In CISA KEV no (CISA's KEV catalog) · Automatable yes (CISA Vulnrichment) · Technical impact total (CISA Vulnrichment). Whether your system is publicly exposed is yours to answer.
