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 Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory "belongs" to the code that operates on the new pointer.

9821 vulnerabilities reference this CWE, most recent first.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-13 01:01 – Updated: 2022-05-13 01:01
VLAI
Details

An exploitable use-after-free vulnerability exists in the JavaScript engine of Foxit Software's Foxit PDF Reader version 8.3.2.25013. A specially crafted PDF document can trigger a previously freed object in memory to be reused, resulting in arbitrary code execution. An attacker needs to trick the user to open the malicious file to trigger this vulnerability. If the browser plugin extension is enabled, visiting a malicious site can also trigger the vulnerability.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-08-21 09:31 – Updated: 2024-09-12 18:31

Details

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

nfc: pn533: Wait for out_urb's completion in pn533_usb_send_frame()

Fix a use-after-free that occurs in hcd when in_urb sent from pn533_usb_send_frame() is completed earlier than out_urb. Its callback frees the skb data in pn533_send_async_complete() that is used as a transfer buffer of out_urb. Wait before sending in_urb until the callback of out_urb is called. To modify the callback of out_urb alone, separate the complete function of out_urb and ack_urb.

Found by a modified version of syzkaller.

GHSA-HM6Q-HPRH-4F22

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-08-16 12:30 – Updated: 2026-01-07 18:30
VLAI
Details

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

smb: client: fix use-after-free in cifs_oplock_break

A race condition can occur in cifs_oplock_break() leading to a use-after-free of the cinode structure when unmounting:

cifs_oplock_break() _cifsFileInfo_put(cfile) cifsFileInfo_put_final() cifs_sb_deactive() [last ref, start releasing sb] kill_sb() kill_anon_super() generic_shutdown_super() evict_inodes() dispose_list() evict() destroy_inode() call_rcu(&inode->i_rcu, i_callback) spin_lock(&cinode->open_file_lock) <- OK [later] i_callback() cifs_free_inode() kmem_cache_free(cinode) spin_unlock(&cinode->open_file_lock) <- UAF cifs_done_oplock_break(cinode) <- UAF

The issue occurs when umount has already released its reference to the superblock. When _cifsFileInfo_put() calls cifs_sb_deactive(), this releases the last reference, triggering the immediate cleanup of all inodes under RCU. However, cifs_oplock_break() continues to access the cinode after this point, resulting in use-after-free.

Fix this by holding an extra reference to the superblock during the entire oplock break operation. This ensures that the superblock and its inodes remain valid until the oplock break completes.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-01-23 18:31 – Updated: 2026-02-26 18:31
VLAI
Details

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

ublk: fix use-after-free in ublk_partition_scan_work

A race condition exists between the async partition scan work and device teardown that can lead to a use-after-free of ub->ub_disk:

  1. ublk_ctrl_start_dev() schedules partition_scan_work after add_disk()
  2. ublk_stop_dev() calls ublk_stop_dev_unlocked() which does:
  3. del_gendisk(ub->ub_disk)
  4. ublk_detach_disk() sets ub->ub_disk = NULL
  5. put_disk() which may free the disk
  6. The worker ublk_partition_scan_work() then dereferences ub->ub_disk leading to UAF

Fix this by using ublk_get_disk()/ublk_put_disk() in the worker to hold a reference to the disk during the partition scan. The spinlock in ublk_get_disk() synchronizes with ublk_detach_disk() ensuring the worker either gets a valid reference or sees NULL and exits early.

Also change flush_work() to cancel_work_sync() to avoid running the partition scan work unnecessarily when the disk is already detached.

VLAI
Details

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

jfs: fix uaf in jfs_evict_inode

When the execution of diMount(ipimap) fails, the object ipimap that has been released may be accessed in diFreeSpecial(). Asynchronous ipimap release occurs when rcu_core() calls jfs_free_node().

Therefore, when diMount(ipimap) fails, sbi->ipimap should not be initialized as ipimap.

GHSA-HM8V-8C3V-CXFQ

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-10-03 12:33 – Updated: 2026-06-01 06:30
VLAI
Details

A flaw was found in QEMU. If the QIOChannelWebsock object is freed while it is waiting to complete a handshake, a GSource is leaked. This can lead to the callback firing later on and triggering a use-after-free in the use of the channel. This can be abused by a malicious client with network access to the VNC WebSocket port to cause a denial of service during the WebSocket handshake prior to the VNC client authentication.

Severity
7.5 (High)

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.
