CVE-2022-2526
Last modified
CVE-2022-2526 is a critical-severity vulnerability rated 9.8/10 on the CVSS scale. A use-after-free vulnerability was found in systemd. This issue occurs due to the on_stream_io() function and dns_stream_complete() function in 'resolved-dns-stream.c' not incrementing the reference counting for the DnsStream object. EPSS estimates a 1.05% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
Description
A use-after-free vulnerability was found in systemd. This issue occurs due to the on_stream_io() function and dns_stream_complete() function in 'resolved-dns-stream.c' not incrementing the reference counting for the DnsStream object. Therefore, other functions and callbacks called can dereference the DNSStream object, causing the use-after-free when the reference is still used later.
