Subject: [PATCH] net/9p/usbg: fix descriptor cleanup use-after-free
Date: Fri, 31 Jul 2026 23:04:14 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260731150414.3135662-1-nicoyip.dev@gmail.com> (raw)
usb9pfs_free_func() frees the f_usb9pfs object before calling
usb_free_all_descriptors(). The usb_function passed to the latter is
embedded in the freed object, so removing the function from a gadget
dereferences freed memory.
The failing teardown sequence is:
configfs unlink
usb9pfs_free_func()
kfree(usb9pfs)
usb_free_all_descriptors(f)
dereference the embedded usb_function
KASAN reported:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in usb_free_all_descriptors+0x138/0x190
Read of size 8 at addr ffff888106a73088 by task poc/95
Call Trace:
usb_free_all_descriptors+0x138/0x190
config_usb_cfg_unlink+0x1f0/0x2f0
configfs_unlink+0x321/0x6f0
Free the descriptors before freeing their containing object.
