  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ntls: Fix race condition in tls_sw_cancel_work_tx()\n\nThis issue was discovered during a code audit.\n\nAfter cancel_delayed_work_sync() is called from tls_sk_proto_close(),\ntx_work_handler() can still be scheduled from paths such as the\nDelayed ACK handler or ksoftirqd.\nAs a result, the tx_work_handler() worker may dereference a freed\nTLS object.\n\nThe following is a simple race scenario:\n\n          cpu0                         cpu1\n\ntls_sk_proto_close()\n  tls_sw_cancel_work_tx()\n                                 tls_write_space()\n                                   tls_sw_write_space()\n                                     if (!test_and_set_bit(BIT_TX_SCHEDULED, &tx_ctx->tx_bitmask))\n    set_bit(BIT_TX_SCHEDULED, &ctx->tx_bitmask);\n    cancel_delayed_work_sync(&ctx->tx_work.work);\n                                     schedule_delayed_work(&tx_ctx->tx_work.work, 0);\n\nTo prevent this race condition, cancel_delayed_work_sync() is\nreplaced with disable_delayed_work_sync().",
