Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: enetc: avoid buffer leaks on xdp_do_redirect() failure Before enetc_clean_rx_ring_xdp() calls xdp_do_redirect(), each software BD in the RX ring between index orig_i and i can have one of 2 refcount values on its page. We are the owner of the current buffer that is being processed, so the refcount will be at least 1. If the current owner of the buffer at the diametrically opposed index in the RX ring (i.o.w, the other half of this page) has not yet called kfree(), this page's refcount could even be 2. enetc_page_reusable() in enetc_flip_rx_buff() tests for the page refcount against 1, and [ if it's 2 ] does not attempt to reuse it. But if enetc_flip_rx_buff() is put after the xdp_do_redirect() call, the page ref
