In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

genirq/irqdesc: Prevent use-after-free in irq_find_at_or_after()

irq_find_at_or_after() dereferences the interrupt descriptor which is
returned by mt_find() while neither holding sparse_irq_lock nor RCU read
lock, which means the descriptor can be freed between mt_find() and the
dereference:

CPU0                            CPU1
desc = mt_find()
                                delayed_free_desc(desc)
irq_desc_get_irq(desc)

The use-after-free is reported by KASAN:

Guard the access with a RCU read lock section.
