Description

drivers/block/floppy.c in the Linux kernel before 5.17.6 is vulnerable to a denial of service, because of a concurrency use-after-free flaw after deallocating raw_cmd in the raw_cmd_ioctl function.
A use-after-free flaw was found in drivers/block/floppy.c in floppy drive in the Linux Kernel. This issue could allow a local attacker to crash the system due to a race problem between raw_cmd_ioctl and seek_interrupt, which can lead to a kernel information leak.
