Subject: [PATCH v2] rapidio: mport_cdev: fix use-after-free in dma_req_free()
Date: Mon, 15 Jun 2026 16:05:30 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260615070530.371640-1-james010kim@gmail.com> (raw)
dma_req_free() drops the mapping reference under buf_mutex and then
dereferences req->map again to unlock the mutex.
If kref_put() drops the last reference, mport_release_mapping() frees
the mapping, and the subsequent mutex_unlock() dereferences a freed
object. This is a use-after-free.
Fix this by caching map and md before kref_put() and using the cached
md for mutex unlocking.
Fixes: 4b0986a36 ("rapidio: add mport character device support")
