How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:9 kernel-zfcpdump-core.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-zfcpdump-core package and not the kernel-zfcpdump-core package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

hso_free_net_device in drivers/net/usb/hso.c in the Linux kernel through 5.13.4 calls unregister_netdev without checking for the NETREG_REGISTERED state, leading to a use-after-free and a double free.
