Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
A use-after-free issue in the Linux kernel has been identified, specifically in the virtio-blk component. The issue occurs when the
hctx->user data is set to vq in virtblk init hctx(), but vq is freed on suspend and reallocated on resume, resulting in hctx->user data becoming invalid after resume. This can cause a kernel crash. The issue is related to the virtqueue add split function and can be triggered by accessing the invalid hctx->user data.Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
