commit594b27e677upstream. Nothing prevents the following: pvclock_gtod_notify() queue_work(system_long_wq, &pvclock_gtod_work); ... remove_module(kvm); ... work_queue_run() pvclock_gtod_work() <- UAF Ditto for any other operation on that workqueue list head which touches pvclock_gtod_work after module removal. Cancel the work in kvm_arch_exit() to prevent that.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
