Description:
 In pppol2tp_connect, there is possible memory corruption due to a use after
 free. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with System
 execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for
 exploitation. Product: Android. Versions: Android kernel. Android ID:
 A-38159931.
