In the function call related to CAM_REQ_MGR_RELEASE_BUF there is no check if the buffer is being used. So when a function called cam_mem_get_cpu_buf to get the kernel va to use, another thread can call CAM_REQ_MGR_RELEASE_BUF to unmap the kernel va which cause UAF of the kernel address.

Weakness

The product reuses or references memory after it has been freed. At some point afterward, the memory may be allocated again and saved in another pointer, while the original pointer references a location somewhere within the new allocation. Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory “belongs” to the code that operates on the new pointer.
