CVE-2025-21759

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ipv6: mcast: extend RCU protection in igmp6_send()

igmp6_send() can be called without RTNL or RCU being held.

Extend RCU protection so that we can safely fetch the net pointer
and avoid a potential UAF.

Note that we no longer can use sock_alloc_send_skb() because
ipv6.igmp_sk uses GFP_KERNEL allocations which can sleep.

Instead use alloc_skb() and charge the net->ipv6.igmp_sk
socket under RCU protection.

CWE-416 Use After Free

The product reuses or references memory after it has been freed. At some point afterward, the memory may be allocated again and saved in another pointer, while the original pointer references a location somewhere within the new allocation. Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory "belongs" to the code that operates on the new pointer.
