Subject: [2.6.20.21 review 14/35] USB: fix DoS in pwc USB video driver
Date: Sat, 13 Oct 2007 17:28:36 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20071013143453.%N@1wt.eu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20071013142822.%N@1wt.eu

[-- Attachment #1: 0047-USB-fix-DoS-in-pwc-USB-video-driver.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 3929 bytes --]

the pwc driver has a disconnect method that waits for user space to
close the device. This opens up an opportunity for a DoS attack,
blocking the USB subsystem and making khubd's task busy wait in
kernel space. This patch shifts freeing resources to close if an opened
device is disconnected.
