In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: amt: fix use-after-free in AMT delayed works When an AMT device is removed, pending delayed works can still access the freed amt_dev structure, which may result in kernel crashes or memory corruption. amt_dev_stop() cancels req_wq and discovery_wq with cancel_delayed_work_sync(), but these works can be scheduled again from event_wq after the cancellation. This allows delayed works to access the freed amt_dev structure after the netdev has been released. The following is a simple race scenario: CPU0 CPU1 amt_dev_stop() cancel_delayed_work_sync() amt_event_work() mod_delayed_work(req_wq) free netdev req_wq acc
