[PATCH net] net: atm: fix use after free in lec_send()

From: Dan Carpenter <hidden>
Date: 2025-03-14 10:11:02
Also in: kernel-janitors, lkml
Subsystem: atm, networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Chas Williams, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

The ->send() operation frees skb so save the length before calling
->send() to avoid a use after free.

Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <redacted>
