In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
binder: fix UAF in binder_netlink_report()
Oneway transactions sent to frozen targets via binder_proc_transaction()
return a BR_TRANSACTION_PENDING_FROZEN error but they are still treated
as successful since the target is expected to thaw at some point. It is
then not safe to access 't' after BR_TRANSACTION_PENDING_FROZEN errors
as the transaction could have been consumed by the now thawed target.
This is the case for binder_netlink_report() which derreferences 't'
after a pending frozen error, as pointed out by the following KASAN
report:

Instead, make a transaction copy so the data can be safely accessed by
binder_netlink_report() after a pending frozen error. While here, add a
comment about not using t->buffer in binder_netlink_report().
