area_cache_get() is used to distribute cache->area and set cache->id, and if cache->id is not 0 and cache->area->kref refcount is 0, it will release the cache->area by nfp_cpp_area_release(). area_cache_get() set cache->id before cpp->op->area_init() and nfp_cpp_area_acquire(). But if area_init() or nfp_cpp_area_acquire() fails, the cache->id is is already set but the refcount is not increased as expected. At this time, calling the nfp_cpp_area_release() will cause use-after-free. To avoid the use-after-free, set cache->id after area_init() and nfp_cpp_area_acquire() complete successfully. Note: This vulnerability is triggerable by providing emulated device equipped with specified configuration.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
