In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pds_core: remove write-after-free of client_id
A use-after-free error popped up in stress testing:
[Mon Apr 21 21:21:33 2025] BUG: KFENCE: use-after-free write in pdsc_auxbus_dev_del+0xef/0x160 [pds_core]
[Mon Apr 21 21:21:33 2025] Use-after-free write at 0x000000007013ecd1 (in kfence-#47):

[Mon Apr 21 21:21:33 2025] pci_unregister_driver+0x1a/0x80
The actual device uninit usually happens on a separate thread
scheduled after this code runs, but there is no guarantee of order
of thread execution, so this could be a problem. There's no
actual need to clear the client_id at this point, so simply
remove the offending code.
