Subject: [PATCH for-4.11 1/2] brcmfmac: use local iftype avoiding use-after-free of virtual interface
Date: Tue, 28 Mar 2017 09:11:30 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1490688691-20100-2-git-send-email-arend.vanspriel@broadcom.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1490688691-20100-1-git-send-email-arend.vanspriel@broadcom.com>

A use-after-free was found using KASAN. In brcmf_p2p_del_if() the virtual
interface is removed using call to brcmf_remove_interface(). After that
the virtual interface instance has been freed and should not be referenced.
Solve this by storing the nl80211 iftype in local variable, which is used
in a couple of places anyway.
