Subject: [PATCH] net/txgbe: fix use-after-free in flow destroy
Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2026 21:39:41 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260910133941.77565-1-zhtfdev@gmail.com> (raw)

TAILQ_FOREACH advances via the current node's next pointer. Removing
and freeing that node inside the loop reads freed memory on the next
iteration.

Find the matching entry first, then remove it after the loop.

Fixes: e342da2d438f ("net/txgbe: support destroying consistent filter")
