Vulnerability Summary

It exists that a memory leak existed in the IPv6 implementation of the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (memory exhaustion). (CVE-2022-3524) ATTENTION: Due to an unavoidable ABI change the kernel updates have been given a new version number, which requires you to recompile and reinstall all third party kernel modules you might have installed. Unless you manually uninstalled the standard kernel metapackages (e.g. linux-generic, linux-generic-lts-RELEASE, linux-virtual, linux-powerpc), a standard system upgrade will automatically perform this as well.

memory leak in ipv6_renew_options() when one thread is converting an IPv6 socket into IPv4 with IPV6_ADDRFORM while another thread calls do_ipv6_setsockopt() and allocates memory to inet6_sk(sk)->XXX after conversion because the converted sk with (tcp|udp)_prot never frees the IPv6 resources, which inet6_destroy_sock() should have cleaned up ...
