CVE-2024-46763

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Generic Receive Offload (GRO) handling for the encapsulation over User Datagram Protocol (FOU) feature. During the shutdown or teardown of a network tunnel, a race condition can occur where the fou_gro_receive() function attempts to access a pointer that has already been set to NULL. This null-pointer dereference can lead to a system crash, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).
