Vulnerability description

DayBreach CVE AI Research

CVE-2026-43232 has vendor, distribution, patch and security-source records on file. We can compare them and prepare an explanation linked to the evidence.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: wan: farsync: Fix use-after-free bugs caused by unfinished tasklets When the FarSync T-series card is being detached, the fst_card_info is deallocated in fst_remove_one(). However, the fst_tx_task or fst_int_task may still be running or pending, leading to use-after-free bugs when the already freed fst_card_info is accessed in fst_process_tx_work_q() or fst_process_int_work_q(). A typical race condition is depicted below: CPU 0 (cleanup) | CPU 1 (tasklet) | fst_start_xmit() fst_remove_one() | tasklet_schedule() unregister_hdlc_device()| | fst_process_tx_work_q() //handler kfree(card) //free | do_bottom_half_tx() | card-> //use The following KASAN trace was captured: ================================================================== BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in do_bottom_half_tx+0xb88/0xd00 Read of size 4 at addr ffff88800aad101c by task ksoftirqd/3/32 ...
