In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf, sockmap: Fix memleak in sk_psock_queue_msg
If tcp_bpf_sendmsg is running during a tear down operation we may enqueue
data on the ingress msg queue while tear down is trying to free it.
sk1 (redirect sk2) sk2
------------------- ---------------
tcp_bpf_sendmsg()
tcp_bpf_send_verdict()
tcp_bpf_sendmsg_redir()
bpf_tcp_ingress()
sock_map_close()
lock_sock()
lock_sock() ... blocking
sk_psock_stop
sk_psock_clear_state(psock, SK_PSOCK_TX_ENABLED);
release_sock(sk);
lock_sock()
sk_mem_charge()
get_page()
sk_psock_queue_msg()
sk_psock_test_state(psock, SK_PSOCK_TX_ENABLED);
drop_sk_msg()
release_sock()
While drop_sk_msg(), the msg has charged memory form sk by sk_mem_charge
and has sg pages need to put. To fix we use sk_msg_free() and then kfee()
msg.

What the EG score is made of (scorer v4.0: the three questions the 0–10 score mixes, published apart · methodology)
The EG score (5.5): severity, escalated by confirmed exploitation. This CVE's 5.5 is its impact severity (EG Severity), not escalated.

SSVC (CISA's decision table, applied by EchelonGraph)Track at every mission impact level.
A fix is available. Apply it within your standard update timelines.
Exploitation none (CISA Vulnrichment) · Automatable no (CISA Vulnrichment) · Technical impact partial (CISA Vulnrichment). All three are CISA's SSVC values (Vulnrichment). EchelonGraph applied CISA's decision table to them; CISA publishes SSVC inputs and the table, not a decision for each CVE. Mission impact is CISA's Mission & Well-being decision point, and only you can judge it. CISA's table makes it high when Mission Prevalence is Essential — the vulnerable component "directly provides capabilities that constitute at least one MEF for at least one entity" (MEF: mission essential function) — or when Public Well-Being Impact is Irreversible: "multiple fatalities are likely", the cyber-physical system "is likely lost or destroyed", "extreme or serious externalities" are imposed on other parties, or social systems such as elections or the financial grid "are destabilized and potentially collapse".

BOD 26-04 (CISA's remediation timeline, Table 1)60 days if the affected system is publicly exposed; Fix on system upgrade if it is not.
The score's inputs: In CISA KEV no (CISA's KEV catalog) · Automatable no (CISA Vulnrichment) · Technical impact partial (CISA Vulnrichment). 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
