Subject: [PATCH 3.4 11/13] KVM: VMX: fix use after free of vmx->loaded_vmcs
Date: Fri, 28 Mar 2014 10:32:01 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140328173054.566787119@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20140328173053.049244535@linuxfoundation.org>

3.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>

commit 26a865f4aa8e66a6d94958de7656f7f1b03c6c56 upstream.

After free_loaded_vmcs executes, the "loaded_vmcs" structure
is kfreed, and now vmx->loaded_vmcs points to a kfreed area.
Subsequent free_loaded_vmcs then attempts to manipulate
vmx->loaded_vmcs.

Switch the order to avoid the problem.
