CVE-2024-56658
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: defer final 'struct net' free in netns dismantle

Ilya reported a slab-use-after-free in dst_destroy [1]

Issue is in xfrm6_net_init() and xfrm4_net_init() :

They copy xfrm[46]_dst_ops_template into net->xfrm.xfrm[46]_dst_ops.

But net structure might be freed before all the dst callbacks are
called. So when dst_destroy() calls later :

if (dst->ops->destroy)
    dst->ops->destroy(dst);

dst->ops points to the old net->xfrm.xfrm[46]_dst_ops, which has been freed.

See a relevant issue fixed in :

ac888d58869b ("net: do not delay dst_entries_add() in dst_release()")

A fix is to queue the 'struct net' to be freed after one
another cleanup_net() round (and existing rcu_barrier())
