Description (CNA)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: gro: don't merge zcopy skbs skb_gro_receive() can currently copy frags between the source and GRO skb, without checking the zerocopy status, and in particular the SKBFL_MANAGED_FRAG_REFS flag. When SKBFL_MANAGED_FRAG_REFS is set, the skb doesn't hold a reference on the pages in shinfo->frags. Appending those frags to another skb's frags without fixing up the page refcount can lead to UAF. When either the last skb in the GRO chain (the one we would append frags to) or the source skb is zerocopy, don't merge the skbs.

ADP enrichment
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Generic Receive Offload (GRO) networking subsystem. This vulnerability occurs when `skb_gro_receive()` attempts to merge zerocopy socket buffers (skbs) without properly managing page reference counts, specifically when the `SKBFL_MANAGED_FRAG_REFS` flag is set. An attacker could potentially exploit this to trigger a Use-After-Free (UAF) condition, which is a memory corruption vulnerability that can lead to system instability or potentially arbitrary code execution.
