In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
SUNRPC: Fix UAF in svc_tcp_listen_data_ready()
After the listener svc_sock is freed, and before invoking svc_tcp_accept() for the established child sock, there is a window that the newsock retaining a freed listener svc_sock in sk_user_data which cloning from parent. In the race window, if data is received on the newsock, we will observe use-after-free report in svc_tcp_listen_data_ready().
Reproduce by two tasks:
