Kernel crash via freed FSM completion object
Published Jan 15, 2025 · Updated Aug 5, 2026
Use-after-free in the Linux kernel t7xx WWAN driver allows local users to crash the kernel during an FSM command timeout. The FSM worker calls complete_all after the waiting main thread times out and releases its stack-based completion object. Exploitation requires low-privileged local access and a t7xx device state transition that outlasts the command timeout; the resulting page fault interrupts service.
