Whenthe timer handler is running, the ax25_ds_del_timer() thatcalls del_timer() in it will return directly. As a result,the use-after-free bugs could happen, one of the scenariosis shown below: (Thread 1) | (Thread 2) | ax25_ds_timeout()ax25_dev_device_down() | ax25_ds_del_timer() | del_timer() | ax25_dev_put() //FREE | | ax25_dev-> //USEIn order to mitigate bugs, when the device is detaching, usetimer_shutdown_sync() to stop the timer. ### POC #### Reference No PoCs from references. #### Github - https://github.com/bygregonline/devsec-fastapi-report
