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

ASoC: SOF: Intel: hda: Fix UAF when reloading module

hda_generic_machine_select() appends -idisp to the tplg filename by allocating a new string with devm_kasprintf(), then stores the string right back into the global variable snd_soc_acpi_intel_hda_machines. When the module is unloaded, this memory is freed, resulting in a global variable pointing to freed memory. Reloading the module then triggers a use-after-free:
