PoC Exploit Released for Use-After-Free Vulnerability in Linux Kernel POSIX CPU Timers

Post by Shane1145 »

A critical race condition vulnerability in the Linux kernel’s POSIX CPU timers has been exposed through a detailed proof-of-concept, one of the most sophisticated kernel exploits targeting Android devices.

CVE-2025-38352 represents a use-after-free (UAF) vulnerability in the Linux kernel’s POSIX CPU timers implementation.

The flaw was previously reported under limited, targeted exploitation in real-world Android environments.

Now, security researchers have released a fully functional proof of concept demonstrating the vulnerability’s mechanics.
