Submit #624722: PX4 PX4-Autopilot main and v1.15.4 Race Condition in File Accessinfo

TitelPX4 PX4-Autopilot main and v1.15.4 Race Condition in File Access
BeschreibungThe issue stems from unsynchronized access to the _mavlink_shell pointer shared between: MavlinkReceiver::handle_message_serial_control() — which may call get_shell() and close_shell(), and Mavlink::task_main() — which periodically checks _mavlink_shell->available() to send serial output back via MAVLink. When one thread deletes the _mavlink_shell instance via close_shell() (on receiving a SERIAL_CONTROL without the RESPOND flag), the other thread may still dereference the freed pointer during its polling loop. This results in a classic use-after-free triggered under specific timing conditions.
