"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: qat - Fix ADF_DEV_RESET_SYNC memory leak Using
completion_done to determine whether the caller has gone away only
works after a complete call. Furthermore it's still possible that the
caller has not yet called wait_for_completion, resulting in another
potential UAF. Fix this by making the caller use cancel_work_sync and
then freeing the memory safely.
This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
