[PATCH 0/4] mmc: vub300: fix NULL-deref and UAF on disconnect

[Johan Hovold]

This series fixes lifetime issues that can lead to NULL pointer
dereferences and use-after-free.

Included are also two related cleanups.

[PATCH 1/4] mmc: vub300: fix NULL-deref on disconnect

[Johan Hovold]

Make sure to deregister the controller before dropping the reference to
the driver data on disconnect to avoid NULL-pointer dereferences or
use-after-free.

While this seems like a step in the right direction, I don't see why
calling usb_set_intfdata(interface, NULL) and assigning
vub300->interface = NULL is safe.

For example, some of the workqueues might be running a work that uses
the vub300->interface, isn't that a problem too?

The interface data is only used in the USB bus callbacks and is not
needed after disconnect().

The driver uses this pointer to indicate that the device has been
disconnected. That doesn't mean that the implementation is correct (e.g.
the check in vub300_pollwork_thread() should use some locking) but that
would be pre-existing issues.

Right, that was my thinking as well.

Out of curiosity, are you planning on fixing these issues too or is
that left for later?

No, sorry, this was just something I stumbled over when addressing USB
devres issues tree wide.

[PATCH 2/4] mmc: vub300: fix use-after-free on disconnect

[Johan Hovold]

The vub300 driver maintains an explicit reference count for the
controller and its driver data and the last reference can in theory be
dropped after the driver has been unbound.

This specifically means that the controller allocation must not be
device managed as that can lead to use-after-free.

Note that the lifetime is currently also incorrectly tied the parent USB
device rather than interface, which can lead to memory leaks if the
driver is unbound without its device being physically disconnected (e.g.
on probe deferral).

Fix both issues by reverting to non-managed allocation of the controller.

Huh, sounds like a real mess, but thanks for the detailed description.

I will defer applying until we finalize the discussion on patch1, but
otherwise this looks good to me.

[PATCH 4/4] mmc: vub300: clean up module init

[Johan Hovold]

Clean up module init by dropping redundant error messages (e.g.
allocation and USB driver registration failure will already have been
logged) and naming error labels after what they do.
