CVE-2024-49876

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

drm/xe: fix UAF around queue destruction

We currently do stuff like queuing the final destruction step on a
random system wq, which will outlive the driver instance. With bad
timing we can teardown the driver with one or more work workqueue still
being alive leading to various UAF splats. Add a fini step to ensure
user queues are properly torn down. At this point GuC should already be
nuked so queue itself should no longer be referenced from hw pov.

v2 (Matt B)
 - Looks much safer to use a waitqueue and then just wait for the
   xa_array to become empty before triggering the drain.

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 Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory "belongs" to the code that operates on the new pointer.
