CVE-2010-1188: Use After Free
First published: Wed Mar 31 2010(Updated: )
Use-after-free vulnerability in net/ipv4/tcp_input.c in the Linux kernel 2.6 before 2.6.20, when IPV6_RECVPKTINFO is set on a listening socket, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (kernel panic) via a SYN packet while the socket is in a listening (TCP_LISTEN) state, which is not properly handled and causes the skb structure to be freed.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the severity of CVE-2010-1188?
CVE-2010-1188 is classified as a high severity vulnerability due to its potential to cause a kernel panic, leading to denial of service.
How do I fix CVE-2010-1188?
To fix CVE-2010-1188, upgrade your Linux kernel to version 2.6.20 or later, where the vulnerability has been patched.
What systems are affected by CVE-2010-1188?
CVE-2010-1188 affects Linux kernel versions before 2.6.20, specifically those with IPV6_RECVPKTINFO set on a listening socket.
What type of attack can exploit CVE-2010-1188?
CVE-2010-1188 can be exploited by remote attackers sending a SYN packet to the vulnerable system while its socket is in a TCP_LISTEN state.
Is CVE-2010-1188 still a concern today?
While CVE-2010-1188 is not a concern for systems running updated kernels, it remains an issue for legacy systems still using vulnerable versions.
