This CVE record has been updated after NVD enrichment efforts were completed. Enrichment data supplied by the NVD may require amendment due to these changes.
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rtnetlink: make sure to refresh master_dev/m_ops in __rtnl_newlink()
While looking at one unrelated syzbot bug, I found the replay logic
in __rtnl_newlink() to potentially trigger use-after-free.
It is better to clear master_dev and m_ops inside the loop,
in case we have to replay it.
