In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
libceph: fix potential use-after-free in have_mon_and_osd_map()
The wait loop in __ceph_open_session() can race with the client receiving a new monmap or osdmap shortly after the initial map is received. Both ceph_monc_handle_map() and handle_one_map() install a new map immediately after freeing the old one
kfree(monc->monmap);
monc->monmap = monmap;
ceph_osdmap_destroy(osdc->osdmap);
osdc->osdmap = newmap;
under client->monc.mutex and client->osdc.lock respectively, but because neither is taken in have_mon_and_osd_map() it's possible for client->monc.monmap->epoch and client->osdc.osdmap->epoch arms in
client->monc.monmap && client->monc.monmap->epoch &&
client->osdc.osdmap && client->osdc.osdmap->epoch;
condition to dereference an already freed map. This happens to be reproducible with generic/395 and generic/397 with KASAN enabled:
