Linux kernel is vulnerable to use-after-free attacks. This is because the way the Linux kernel’s KVM hypervisor implements its device control API While creating a device via kvm_ioctl_create_device(). An attacker could use this flaw to crash the guest VM resulting in a denial of service issue or potentially gain privileged access to a system.
