The SLES security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for SLES:15.4.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-default-livepatch package and not the kernel-default-livepatch package as distributed by SLES.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: atm: fix /proc/net/atm/lec handling
/proc/net/atm/lec must ensure safety against dev_lec[] changes.
It appears it had dev_put() calls without prior dev_hold(), leading to imbalance and UAF.
