Description
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rtase: fix double free of multi-frag skb on DMA map failure
In rtase_start_xmit(), when the head buffer DMA mapping fails after
rtase_xmit_frags() has mapped all fragments, the error path clears
the fragment descriptors with rtase_tx_clear_range(), which frees
the skb through the last-frag slot and accounts tx_dropped. Control
then falls through to the common error label, which frees the same
skb a second time and counts it again.
Return right after clearing the fragments when the skb owns frags;
the no-frag case still drops through and frees the head skb once.
