Common Weakness Enumeration

CWE-416

Allowed

Use After Free

Abstraction: Variant · Status: Stable

API response cwe.mitre.org

The product reuses or references memory after it has been freed. At some point afterward, the memory may be allocated again and saved in another pointer, while the original pointer references a location somewhere within the new allocation. Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory "belongs" to the code that operates on the new pointer.

11113 vulnerabilities reference this CWE, most recent first.

Details

A use after free in the TextBox field Validate action in IReader_ContentProvider can occur for specially crafted PDF files in Foxit Reader SDK (ActiveX) Professional 5.4.0.1031. An attacker can leverage this to gain remote code execution. Relative to CVE-2018-19452, this has a different free location and requires different JavaScript code for exploitation.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-06-17 18:35 – Updated: 2026-07-16 12:32
VLAI
Details

NGINX Open Source has a vulnerability in the ngx_http_v3_module module. When NGINX Open Source is configured to use the HTTP/3 QUIC module, a remote unauthenticated attacker along with conditions beyond their control can use a specially crafted HTTP/3 session to reopen a QPACK encoder stream. This may cause a Use-after-Free in the NGINX worker process leading to a restart. Additionally, attackers can execute code on systems with Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) disabled or when the attacker can bypass ASLR.

Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-02-27 18:31 – Updated: 2025-02-27 18:31
VLAI
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

driver: base: fix UAF when driver_attach failed

When driver_attach(drv); failed, the driver_private will be freed. But it has been added to the bus, which caused a UAF.

To fix it, we need to delete it from the bus when failed.

Implementation

Strategy: Attack Surface Reduction

When freeing pointers, be sure to set them to NULL once they are freed. However, the utilization of multiple or complex data structures may lower the usefulness of this strategy.
