CVE-2023-52795

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

vhost-vdpa: fix use after free in vhost_vdpa_probe()

The put_device() calls vhost_vdpa_release_dev() which calls
ida_simple_remove() and frees "v".  So this call to
ida_simple_remove() is a use after free and a double free.

CWE-415 Double Free

The product calls free() twice on the same memory address, potentially leading to modification of unexpected memory locations.

CWE-416 Use After Free

The product reuses or references memory after it has been freed. At some point afterward, the memory may be allocated again and saved in another pointer, while the original pointer references a location somewhere within the new allocation. Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory "belongs" to the code that operates on the new pointer.
