Summary

CVE-2022-49588 is a vulnerability affecting the Linux kernel. This issue involved a data race in the tcp subsystem, specifically with the sysctl_tcp_migrate_req. Since the data could be altered while being read, the Linux kernel has been updated to include the READ_ONCE() function to protect against concurrent changes to the sysctl_tcp_migrate_req variable. This vulnerability could potentially lead to unintended behavior or system instability, making the kernel patch an essential security update.
