Description
An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 5.18.14. xfrm_expand_policies in net/xfrm/xfrm_policy.c can cause a refcount to be dropped twice.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s IP framework for transforming packets (XFRM subsystem). An error while resolving policies in xfrm_bundle_lookup causes the refcount to drop twice, leading to a possible crash and a denial of service.
