Common Weakness Enumeration

CWE-416

Allowed

Use After Free

Abstraction: Variant · Status: Stable

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 Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory "belongs" to the code that operates on the new pointer.

11150 vulnerabilities reference this CWE, most recent first.

GHSA-3QFG-XVM7-P66X

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-05-28 12:30 – Updated: 2026-06-01 18:31
VLAI
Details

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

batman-adv: bla: prevent use-after-free when deleting claims

When batadv_bla_del_backbone_claims() removes all claims for a backbone, it does this by dropping the link entry in the hash list. This list entry itself was one of the references which need to be dropped at the same time via batadv_claim_put().

But the batadv_claim_put() must not be done before the last access to the claim object in this function. Otherwise the claim might be freed already by the batadv_claim_release() function before the list entry was dropped.

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.
