Threats tagged 'ghsa-5cw4-rfp6-xjfx'

A use-after-free vulnerability in the ALSA pcm linked stream runtime in the Linux kernel was fixed. The issue involved accessing freed memory after releasing a stream lock in snd_pcm_drain(), potentially leading to memory corruption. The fix caches needed runtime fields before releasing the lock to prevent use-after-free. This vulnerability affects specific Linux kernel versions and has a high severity score.
