CVE-2022-39188 is a use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel before 5.19 affecting TLB invalidation handling in include/asm-generic/tlb.h. A race between unmap_mapping_range() and munmap() for VM_PFNMAP virtual memory areas can permit a device driver to free a page while stale TLB translations still reference it.
