Common Weakness Enumeration

CWE-416

Allowed

Use 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 Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory "belongs" to the code that operates on the new pointer.

9874 vulnerabilities reference this CWE, most recent first.

GHSA-F7JR-76RM-F753

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-07-16 12:30 – Updated: 2024-08-07 21:31
VLAI
Details

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

usb: f_fs: Fix use-after-free for epfile

Consider a case where ffs_func_eps_disable is called from ffs_func_disable as part of composition switch and at the same time ffs_epfile_release get called from userspace. ffs_epfile_release will free up the read buffer and call ffs_data_closed which in turn destroys ffs->epfiles and mark it as NULL. While this was happening the driver has already initialized the local epfile in ffs_func_eps_disable which is now freed and waiting to acquire the spinlock. Once spinlock is acquired the driver proceeds with the stale value of epfile and tries to free the already freed read buffer causing use-after-free.

Following is the illustration of the race:

  CPU1                                  CPU2

ffs_func_eps_disable epfiles (local copy) ffs_epfile_release ffs_data_closed if (last file closed) ffs_data_reset ffs_data_clear ffs_epfiles_destroy spin_lock dereference epfiles

Fix this races by taking epfiles local copy & assigning it under spinlock and if epfiles(local) is null then update it in ffs->epfiles then finally destroy it. Extending the scope further from the race, protecting the ep related structures, and concurrent accesses.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-08-19 18:31 – Updated: 2025-11-26 21:31
VLAI
Details

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

ext4: fix inode use after free in ext4_end_io_rsv_work()

In ext4_io_end_defer_completion(), check if io_end->list_vec is empty to avoid adding an io_end that requires no conversion to the i_rsv_conversion_list, which in turn prevents starting an unnecessary worker. An ext4_emergency_state() check is also added to avoid attempting to abort the journal in an emergency state.

Additionally, ext4_put_io_end_defer() is refactored to call ext4_io_end_defer_completion() directly instead of being open-coded. This also prevents starting an unnecessary worker when EXT4_IO_END_FAILED is set but data_err=abort is not enabled.

This ensures that the check in ext4_put_io_end_defer() is consistent with the check in ext4_end_bio(). Otherwise, we might add an io_end to the i_rsv_conversion_list and then call ext4_finish_bio(), after which the inode could be freed before ext4_end_io_rsv_work() is called, triggering a use-after-free issue.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-05-23 09:30 – Updated: 2026-07-24 15:31
VLAI
Details

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

Bluetooth: L2CAP: Fix slab-use-after-free in l2cap_connect()

Extend a critical section to prevent chan from early freeing. Also make the l2cap_connect() return type void. Nothing is using the returned value but it is ugly to return a potentially freed pointer. Making it void will help with backports because earlier kernels did use the return value. Now the compile will break for kernels where this patch is not a complete fix.

Call stack summary:

[use] l2cap_bredr_sig_cmd l2cap_connect ┌ mutex_lock(&conn->chan_lock); │ chan = pchan->ops->new_connection(pchan); <- alloc chan │ __l2cap_chan_add(conn, chan); │ l2cap_chan_hold(chan); │ list_add(&chan->list, &conn->chan_l); ... (1) └ mutex_unlock(&conn->chan_lock); chan->conf_state ... (4) <- use after free

[free] l2cap_conn_del ┌ mutex_lock(&conn->chan_lock); │ foreach chan in conn->chan_l: ... (2) │ l2cap_chan_put(chan); │ l2cap_chan_destroy │ kfree(chan) ... (3) <- chan freed └ mutex_unlock(&conn->chan_lock);

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.
