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 Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory "belongs" to the code that operates on the new pointer.
10206 vulnerabilities reference this CWE, most recent first.

GHSA-CM35-F8G3-R786
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-05-21 15:31 – Updated: 2024-07-03 18:42In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
watchdog: sc520_wdt: Fix possible use-after-free in wdt_turnoff()
This module's remove path calls del_timer(). However, that function does not wait until the timer handler finishes. This means that the timer handler may still be running after the driver's remove function has finished, which would result in a use-after-free.
Fix by calling del_timer_sync(), which makes sure the timer handler has finished, and unable to re-schedule itself.

GHSA-CM7X-4MVP-C2JF
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-12-27 15:31 – Updated: 2025-01-06 18:31In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/vt-d: Remove cache tags before disabling ATS
The current implementation removes cache tags after disabling ATS, leading to potential memory leaks and kernel crashes. Specifically, CACHE_TAG_DEVTLB type cache tags may still remain in the list even after the domain is freed, causing a use-after-free condition.
This issue really shows up when multiple VFs from different PFs passed through to a single user-space process via vfio-pci. In such cases, the kernel may crash with kernel messages like:

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.
