In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
padata: Fix refcnt handling in padata_free_shell()
In a high-load arm64 environment, the pcrypt_aead01 test in LTP can lead to system UAF (Use-After-Free) issues. Due to the lengthy analysis of the pcrypt_aead01 function call, I'll describe the problem scenario using a simplified model:
Suppose there's a user of padata named user_function that adheres to
the padata requirement of calling padata_free_shell after serial()
has been invoked, as demonstrated in the following code:

In the corresponding padata.c file, there's the following code:
Because of the high system load and the accumulation of unexecuted
softirq at this moment, local_bh_enable() in padata takes longer
to execute than usual. Subsequently, when accessing pd->refcnt,
pd has already been released by padata_free_shell(), resulting
in a UAF issue with pd->refcnt.
The fix is straightforward: add refcount_dec_and_test before calling
padata_free_pd in padata_free_shell.
