![]() One scenario that could lead to UAF is two threads writing simultaneously to the "tx99" debug file. One of them would set the "start" value to true and follow to ath9k_tx99_init(). Inside the function it would set the sc->tx99_state to true after allocating sc->tx99skb. Then, the other thread would execute write_file_tx99() and call ath9k_tx99_deinit(). sc->tx99_state would be freed. After that, the first thread would continue inside ath9k_tx99_init() and call r = ath9k_tx99_send(sc, sc->tx99_skb, &txctl); that would make use of the freed sc->tx99_skb memory.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
