Description

Use After Free vulnerability in Arm Ltd Arm 5th Gen GPU Architecture Kernel Driver allows a local non-privileged user to make improper GPU memory processing operations. If the system’s memory is carefully prepared by the user, then this in turn could give them access to already freed memory. This issue affects Arm 5th Gen GPU Architecture Kernel Driver: from r41p0 through r47p0.

• CWE-416Use After FreeThe 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 Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory "belongs" to the code that operates on the new pointer.
