CWE-416
AllowedUse After Free
Abstraction: Variant · Status: Stable
The product reuses or references memory after it has been freed. At some point afterward, the memory may be allocated again and saved in another pointer, while the original pointer references a location somewhere within the new allocation. Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory "belongs" to the code that operates on the new pointer.
9820 vulnerabilities reference this CWE, most recent first.

GHSA-24X4-6QMH-88QG
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-02-09 23:57 – Updated: 2024-11-07 22:28Impact
A malicious user can cause a use after free behavior when decoding PNG images:
if (/* ... error conditions ... */) {
png::CommonFreeDecode(&decode);
OP_REQUIRES(context, false,
errors::InvalidArgument("PNG size too large for int: ",
decode.width, " by ", decode.height));
}
After png::CommonFreeDecode(&decode) gets called, the values of decode.width and decode.height are in an unspecified state.
Patches
We have patched the issue in GitHub commit e746adbfcfee15e9cfdb391ff746c765b99bdf9b.
The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.8.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.7.1, TensorFlow 2.6.3, and TensorFlow 2.5.3, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
For more information
Please consult our security guide for more information regarding the security model and how to contact us with issues and questions.

GHSA-24XP-GRCX-7GV9
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-04-24 15:32 – Updated: 2026-04-27 15:30In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: lan966x: fix use-after-free and leak in lan966x_fdma_reload()
When lan966x_fdma_reload() fails to allocate new RX buffers, the restore path restarts DMA using old descriptors whose pages were already freed via lan966x_fdma_rx_free_pages(). Since page_pool_put_full_page() can release pages back to the buddy allocator, the hardware may DMA into memory now owned by other kernel subsystems.
Additionally, on the restore path, the newly created page pool (if allocation partially succeeded) is overwritten without being destroyed, leaking it.
Fix both issues by deferring the release of old pages until after the new allocation succeeds. Save the old page array before the allocation so old pages can be freed on the success path. On the failure path, the old descriptors, pages and page pool are all still valid, making the restore safe. Also ensure the restore path re-enables NAPI and wakes the netdev, matching the success path.

GHSA-255P-HFC6-WHJX
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-24 19:09 – Updated: 2022-05-24 19:09This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Foxit PDF Reader 11.0.0.49893. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the handling of Annotation objects. The issue results from the lack of validating the existence of an object prior to performing operations on the object. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process. Was ZDI-CAN-14021.

Mitigation
Strategy: Language Selection
Choose a language that provides automatic memory management.
Mitigation
Strategy: Attack Surface Reduction
When freeing pointers, be sure to set them to NULL once they are freed. However, the utilization of multiple or complex data structures may lower the usefulness of this strategy.
