A memory leak flaw with use-after-free capability was found in the Linux kernel. The VMA mm/rmap.c functionality in the is_mergeable_anon_vma() function continuously forks, using memory operations to trigger an incorrect reuse of leaf anon_vma. This issue allows a local attacker to crash the system.
