Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
A potential use-after-free issue has been identified in the Linux kernel, specifically in the slab debugfs fops function. This occurs when sysfs slab add fails, and subsequently, debugfs slab add() is called for 's', which will be freed soon, leading to a use-after-free situation when slab debugfs fops uses 's' later.
Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
