NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-tools package and not the kernel-tools package as distributed by RHEL.

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

icmp: Fix a data-race around sysctl_icmp_errors_use_inbound_ifaddr.

While reading sysctl_icmp_errors_use_inbound_ifaddr, it can be changed concurrently. Thus, we need to add READ_ONCE() to its reader.
