Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mrp: introduce active flags to prevent UAF when applicant uninit The caller of del_timer_sync must prevent restarting of the timer, If we have no this synchronization, there is a small probability that the cancellation will not be successful.
