In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: brcmsmac: fix UAF in brcms_free_timer()
brcms_free_timer() calls brcms_del_timer() which uses the non-synchronous
cancel_delayed_work() to cancel the timer's underlying delayed work. If
the work callback (_brcms_timer) is already running, cancel_delayed_work()
returns false without waiting, and brcms_free_timer() proceeds to kfree(t)
while the callback still accesses t through container_of().
Add an explicit cancel_delayed_work_sync() after brcms_del_timer() to
guarantee that any in-flight callback has completed before the timer
structure is freed.
BOD 26-04 (CISA's remediation timeline, Table 1)14 days if the affected system is publicly exposed; Fix on system upgrade if it is not.
In CISA KEV no (CISA's KEV catalog) · Automatable no (CISA's BOD 26-04 default) · Technical impact total (CISA's BOD 26-04 default). Where an input reads “CISA's BOD 26-04 default”, no one has published it for this CVE, and CISA's implementation guidance says: “If “Automatable” and “Technical Impact” information items about a CVE ID are not available and the CVE ID is not in the KEV Catalog, CISA will treat its values as “no” and “total,” respectively, until CISA or a third party provides metadata about the CVE ID. CISA will always provide the Vulnrichment data for a CVE ID listed in the KEV Catalog.” Whether your system is publicly exposed is yours to answer. BOD 26-04 binds US Federal Civilian Executive Branch agencies; for anyone else it is CISA's published timeline, a reference rather than an obligation. The directive · how EchelonGraph applies it
