NetBSD prior to commit ec8451e contains a race condition vulnerability in cryptodev_op() within the opencrypto subsystem that allows local attackers to trigger a double-free condition by concurrently issuing CIOCCRYPT operations on the same session identifier on SMP systems. Attackers can exploit mutable per-operation state embedded in the csession struct to corrupt kernel heap memory.

No affected version ranges are stored yet. Use the vendor advisory before you decide this record does not apply.
