In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ena: PHC: Fix potential use-after-free in get_timestamp
Move the phc->active check and resp pointer assignment to after
acquiring the spinlock. Previously, phc->active was checked without
holding the lock, and resp was cached from ena_dev->phc.virt_addr
before the lock was acquired.
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.
With both the active check and the pointer read under the lock,
destroy cannot free the memory while get_timestamp is using it.
