CVE-2024-50039
Summary

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

net/sched: accept TCA_STAB only for root qdisc

Most qdiscs maintain their backlog using qdisc_pkt_len(skb)
on the assumption it is invariant between the enqueue()
and dequeue() handlers.

Unfortunately syzbot can crash a host rather easily using
a TBF + SFQ combination, with an STAB on SFQ [1]

We can't support TCA_STAB on arbitrary level, this would
require to maintain per-qdisc storage.
