*** This bug is a security vulnerability ***
Public security bug reported:
A flaw was found in the CXGB3 kernel driver when the network was
considered congested. The kernel would incorrectly misinterpret the
congestion as an error condition and incorrectly free/clean up the skb.
When the device would then send the skb's queued, these structures would
be referenced and may panic the system or allow an attacker to escalate
privileges in a use-after-free scenario.
