      <title>CVE-2024-38583 — nilfs2: fix use-after-free of timer for log writer thread</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2024-38583</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;nilfs2: fix use-after-free of timer for log writer thread&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Patch series &amp;#34;nilfs2: fix log writer related issues&amp;#34;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This bug fix series covers three nilfs2 log writer-related issues,
including a timer use-after-free issue and potential deadlock issue on
unmount, and a potential freeze issue in event synchronization found
during their analysis.  Details are described in each commit log.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This patch (of 3):&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A use-after-free issue has been reported regarding the timer sc_timer on
the nilfs_sc_info structure.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The problem is that even though it is used to wake up a sleeping log
writer thread, sc_timer is not shut down until the nilfs_sc_info structure
is about to be freed, and is used regardless of the thread&amp;#39;s lifetime.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fix this issue by limiting the use of sc_timer only while the log writer
thread is alive.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
