del`); while a remote client can populate the FTP-bound IPVS connections through the load balancer, the free-and-use sequence itself is driven locally.\nAC:L - The bad ordering is deterministic \u2014 pernet exit callbacks always run in reverse registration order, so `__ip_vs_ftp_exit()` always precedes the connection flush \u2014 and the attacker controls both the connection creation and the netns destruction, with ordinary heap grooming sufficing to reclaim the freed `ip_vs_app` objects.\nPR:L - Configuring the IPVS FTP virtual service needs CAP_NET_ADMIN, but `do_ip_vs_set_ctl()` checks `ns_capable(net->user_ns, CAP_NET_ADMIN)` and IPVS was explicitly made usable in non-init user namespaces, so an unprivileged local user obtains it with `unshare -Urn`.\nUI:N - The attacker performs the entire sequence \u2014 namespace creation, IPVS service setup, connection establishment and namespace teardown \u2014 with no action from any other user.\nS:U - The corruption and any resulting privilege escalation stay within the kernel's own security authority; no VM, IOMMU, or other trust boundary is crossed.\nC:H - `ip_vs_unbind_app()` dereferences the freed `inc` and the already-kfree()'d `inc->app`, so reclaiming those slab objects lets an attacker read and leak kernel heap contents and pointers.\nI:H - The use-after-free yields a write primitive (`atomic_dec(&inc->usecnt)` and `module_put()` through a dangling `inc->app` pointer) plus an indirect call through the freed `inc->done_conn`/`unbind_conn` function pointers, which is a control-flow hijack primitive after heap spraying.\nA:H - Even unexploited, the use-after-free calls a function pointer from reclaimed memory and corrupts refcounts during netns cleanup, reliably producing a
