A use after free vulnerability was found in the Linux Kernel. Failure propagates back to pci_msi_setup_msi_irqs() in msi_capability_init(), which accesses the descriptor for unmasking in the error exit path, leading to a loss of confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI/MSI: Fix UAF in msi_capability_init

That failure propagates back to pci_msi_setup_msi_irqs() in
msi_capability_init() which accesses the descriptor for unmasking in the
error exit path.
Cure it by copying the descriptor and using the copy for the error exit path
unmask operation.
