In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
llc: fix skb UAF and leaks on llc_mac_hdr_init() failure
In llc_conn_ac_resend_i_xxx_x_set_0_or_send_rr(), if llc_mac_hdr_init()
fails, kfree_skb(skb) is called instead of kfree_skb(nskb). This leaks
the newly allocated nskb, reads from the freed skb via LLC_I_GET_NR(pdu),
and double-frees skb when llc_conn_state_process() drops its reference.
In llc_sap_action_send_xid_r() and llc_sap_action_send_test_r(), nskb is
leaked if llc_mac_hdr_init() returns an error.
Free nskb in all three error paths.
