Subject: [PATCH 6.6 03/28] media: tuner: xc5000: Fix use-after-free in xc5000_release
Date: Fri, 10 Oct 2025 15:16:21 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251010131330.486049284@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251010131330.355311487@linuxfoundation.org>
6.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Duoming Zhou <duoming@zju.edu.cn>
[ Upstream commit 40b7a19f321e65789612ebaca966472055dab48c ]
The original code uses cancel_delayed_work() in xc5000_release(), which
does not guarantee that the delayed work item timer_sleep has fully
completed if it was already running. This leads to use-after-free scenarios
where xc5000_release() may free the xc5000_priv while timer_sleep is still
active and attempts to dereference the xc5000_priv.
A typical race condition is illustrated below:
CPU 0 (release thread) | CPU 1 (delayed work callback)
xc5000_release() | xc5000_do_timer_sleep()
cancel_delayed_work() |
hybrid_tuner_release_state(priv) |
kfree(priv) |
| priv = container_of() // UAF
Replace cancel_delayed_work() with cancel_delayed_work_sync() to ensure
that the timer_sleep is properly canceled before the xc5000_priv memory
is deallocated.
A deadlock concern was considered: xc5000_release() is called in a process
context and is not holding any locks that the timer_sleep work item might
also need. Therefore, the use of the _sync() variant is safe here.
This bug was initially identified through static analysis.
