In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: libertas tf: fix UAF in lbtf free adapter()
lbtf free adapter() calls lbtf free cmd buffer() to free the command
buffers before calling timer delete sync() to wait for the command
timer callback. If the timer callback (command timer fn) is already
running when lbtf free cmd buffer() frees the command array, the
callback dereferences priv->cur cmd->cmdbuf which points to freed
memory.
Swap the order so that timer delete sync() runs first, ensuring any
in-flight callback has completed before the command buffers are freed.
