CVE-2026-23098

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

netrom: fix double-free in nr_route_frame()

In nr_route_frame(), old_skb is immediately freed without checking if nr_neigh->ax25 pointer is NULL. Therefore, if nr_neigh->ax25 is NULL, the caller function will free old_skb again, causing a double-free bug.

Therefore, to prevent this, we need to modify it to check whether nr_neigh->ax25 is NULL before freeing old_skb.
