      <title>CVE-2026-52971 — net: ena: PHC: Fix potential use-after-free in get_timestamp</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-52971</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;net: ena: PHC: Fix potential use-after-free in get_timestamp&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Move the phc-&amp;gt;active check and resp pointer assignment to after
acquiring the spinlock. Previously, phc-&amp;gt;active was checked without
holding the lock, and resp was cached from ena_dev-&amp;gt;phc.virt_addr
before the lock was acquired.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If ena_com_phc_destroy() runs between the lockless active check and
the lock acquisition, it sets active=false, releases the lock, frees
the DMA memory, and sets virt_addr=NULL. The get_timestamp path would
then read a NULL virt_addr and dereference it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;With both the active check and the pointer read under the lock,
destroy cannot free the memory while get_timestamp is using it.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
