A flaw was found in the Linux kernel code where a list element is deleted twice from a linked list due to redundant list_del() calls. This issue leads to list corruption or kernel crashes and occurs when list_del() is invoked in a helper function and again in the main function. With CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST enabled, this triggers a warning; otherwise, it causes a kernel error due to NULL pointer dereference.

Mitigation

No mitigation is currently available for this vulnerability. Make sure to perform the updates as they become available.
