In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:bonding: alb: fix UAF in rlb_arp_recv during bond up/downThe ALB RX path may access rx_hashtbl concurrently with bond
teardown. During rapid bond up/down cycles, rlb_deinitialize()
frees rx_hashtbl while RX handlers are still running, leading
to a null pointer dereference detected by KASAN.However, the root cause is that rlb_arp_recv() can still be accessed
after setting recv_probe to NULL, which is actually a use-after-free
(UAF) issue. That is the reason for using the referenced commit in the
Fixes tag.[  214.174138] Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc000000001d: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN PTI

[  214.439830]  </IRQ>The issue is reproducible by repeatedly running
ip link set bond0 up/down while receiving ARP messages, where
rlb_arp_recv() can race with rlb_deinitialize() and dereference
a freed rx_hashtbl entry.Fix this by setting recv_probe to NULL and then calling
synchronize_net() to wait for any concurrent RX processing to finish.
This ensures that no RX handler can access rx_hashtbl after it is freed
in bond_alb_deinitialize().
