      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\novpn: fix possible use-after-free in ovpn_net_xmit\n\nWhen building the skb_list in ovpn_net_xmit, skb_share_check will free\nthe original skb if it is shared. The current implementation continues\nto use the stale skb pointer for subsequent operations:\n- peer lookup,\n- skb_dst_drop (even though all segments produced by skb_gso_segment\n  will have a dst attached),\n- ovpn_peer_stats_increment_tx.\n\nFix this by moving the peer lookup and skb_dst_drop before segmentation\nso that the original skb is still valid when used. Return early if all\nsegments fail skb_share_check and the list ends up empty.\nAlso switch ovpn_peer_stats_increment_tx to use skb_list.next; the next\npatch fixes the stats logic.",
