CVE-2024-47732
MEDIUMLinux Kernel 6.8-6.10.12, 6.11.0-6.11.1, 6.12 - Use-After-Free in IAA Compression Mode Cleanup
Title source: llmDescription
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: crypto: iaa - Fix potential use after free bug The free_device_compression_mode(iaa_device, device_mode) function frees "device_mode" but it iss passed to iaa_compression_modes[i]->free() a few lines later resulting in a use after free. The good news is that, so far as I can tell, nothing implements the ->free() function and the use after free happens in dead code. But, with this fix, when something does implement it, we'll be ready. :)
