In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing/synthetic: Fix races on freeing last_cmd
Currently, the "last_cmd" variable can be accessed by multiple processes asynchronously when multiple users manipulate synthetic_events node at the same time, it could lead to use-after-free or double-free.
This patch add "lastcmd_mutex" to prevent "last_cmd" from being accessed asynchronously.
================================================================
It's easy to reproduce in the KASAN environment by running the two scripts below in different shells.
script 1: while : do echo -n -e '\x88' > /sys/kernel/tracing/synthetic_events done
script 2: while : do echo -n -e '\xb0' > /sys/kernel/tracing/synthetic_events done
