In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vsock/virtio: flush works in dependency order
virtio_vsock_remove() stops the virtqueues and then flushes each work
item before freeing the enclosing virtio_vsock. The current order does
not account for dependencies between those items: tx_work may queue
send_pkt_work, and send_pkt_work may queue rx_work.
In particular, send_pkt_work can set restart_rx and release tx_lock.
The remove path can then stop the queues and flush rx_work before
send_pkt_work queues it. Although the later send_pkt_work flush waits
for that producer to finish, nothing waits for the newly queued rx_work,
so kfree(vsock) can race with it.
KASAN reported:

Flush the works in producer-to-consumer order. virtio_vsock_vqs_del()
has already disabled the queue callbacks and cleared the run flags, so
after tx_work and send_pkt_work are drained, no source remains that can
queue rx_work after its flush.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel, specifically within the vsock/virtio component. An incorrect order of flushing work items during the removal of a virtio_vsock object can lead to a use-after-free condition. This vulnerability allows a race condition where memory can be freed while still in use, potentially resulting in memory corruption and system instability or a denial of service.
