Subject: [PATCH 6.6.y 2/2] bus: fsl-mc: fix use-after-free in driver_override_show()
Date: Fri, 13 Feb 2026 11:22:29 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260213162229.3559221-2-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260213162229.3559221-1-sashal@kernel.org>

From: Gui-Dong Han <hanguidong02@gmail.com>

[ Upstream commit 148891e95014b5dc5878acefa57f1940c281c431 ]

The driver_override_show() function reads the driver_override string
without holding the device_lock. However, driver_override_store() uses
driver_set_override(), which modifies and frees the string while holding
the device_lock.

This can result in a concurrent use-after-free if the string is freed
by the store function while being read by the show function.

Fix this by holding the device_lock around the read operation.

Fixes: 1f86a00c1159 ("bus/fsl-mc: add support for 'driver_override' in the mc-bus")
