      "value": "OP-TEE OS through 4.10.0, fixed in commit 8794043, contains a use-after-free vulnerability in the Trusted Application loader that allows attackers with the ability to load a signed Trusted Application to corrupt secure-world kernel memory by setting the TA_FLAG_CONCURRENT flag in a user TA signed header. Attackers can cause two concurrent sessions to operate on the same shared context without locking, corrupting the uctx->vm_info.regions list during memref parameter mapping and unmapping to free vm_region nodes still in use, resulting in a use-after-free in S-EL1 secure-world kernel memory."

Los atacantes pueden causar que dos sesiones concurrentes operen en el mismo contexto compartido sin bloqueo, corrompiendo la lista uctx  -mayor que  vm_info.regions durante el mapeo y desmapeo de parámetros memref para liberar nodos vm_region aún en uso, resultando en un uso después de liberación en la memoria del kernel del mundo seguro S-EL1."
