  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  staging: nvec: fix use-after-free in nvec_rx_completed()  In nvec_rx_completed(), when an incomplete RX transfer is detected, nvec_msg_free() is called to return the message back to the pool by clearing its 'used' atomic flag. Immediately after this, the code accesses nvec-\u003erx-\u003edata[0] to check the message type.  Since nvec_msg_free() marks the pool slot as available via atomic_set(), any concurrent or subsequent call to nvec_msg_alloc() could claim that same slot and overwrite its data[] array. Reading nvec-\u003erx-\u003edata[0] after freeing the message is therefore a use-after-free.  Fix this by saving the message type byte before calling nvec_msg_free(), then using the saved value for the battery quirk check.",
