Exploitability: 1.8 / Impact: 3.6
Source: NVD
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
genirq/irqdesc: Prevent use-after-free in irq_find_at_or_after()
irq_find_at_or_after() dereferences the interrupt descriptor which is
returned by mt_find() while neither holding sparse_irq_lock nor RCU read
lock, which means the descriptor can be freed between mt_find() and the
dereference:
CPU0 CPU1
desc = mt_find()
delayed_free_desc(desc)
irq_desc_get_irq(desc)
The use-after-free is reported by KASAN:
Call trace:
irq_get_next_irq+0x58/0x84
show_stat+0x638/0x824
seq_read_iter+0x158/0x4ec

Guard the access with a RCU read lock section.
