          This module exploits CVE-2019-2215, which is a use-after-free in Binder in the
          Android kernel. The bug is a local privilege escalation vulnerability that
          allows for a full compromise of a vulnerable device. If chained with a browser
          renderer exploit, this bug could fully compromise a device through a malicious
          website.
          The freed memory is replaced with an iovec structure in order to leak a pointer
          to the task_struct. Finally the bug is triggered again in order to overwrite
          the addr_limit, making all memory (including kernel memory) accessible as part
          of the user-space memory range in our process and allowing arbitrary reading
          and writing of kernel memory.
