Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Use After Free via the igmp_send function. An attacker can cause undefined behavior, including sporadic crashes or corruption of statistics, by sending specially crafted IPv4 IGMP membership queries to 224.0.0.1 or by triggering local multicast join, leave, or rejoin operations. A controllable write may be possible if the asynchronous TX path is used concurrently with slab reuse.
