Subject: [PATCH] usb: core: fix a double free in the usb driver
Date: Fri, 27 May 2016 01:38:18 +0000 (GMT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1060192669.191661464313093233.JavaMail.weblogic@epmlwas08d> (raw)

There is a double free problem in the usb driver.
This is caused by delayed deregister for scsi device.
<*> at Insert USB Storage
    -  USB bus #1 register
     usb_create_hcd (primary-kref==1)
     * primary-bandwidth_mutex(alloc))
usb_get_hcd    (primary-kref==2)
    -  USB bus #2 register
usb_create_hcd (second-kref==1)
     * second-bandwidth_mutex==primary-bandwidth_mutex
     usb_get_hcd    (second-kref==2)
    -  scsi_device_get
usb_get_hcd    (second-kref==3)

<*> at remove USB Storage (Normal)
    -  scsi_device_put
usb_put_hcd    (second-kref==2)
    -  USB bus #2 deregister
     usb_release_dev(second-kref==1)
usb_release_dev(second-kref==0)  -> hcd_release()
    -  USB bus #1 deregister
     usb_release_dev(primary-kref==1)
     usb_release_dev(primary-kref==0) -> hcd_release()
*(primary-bandwidth_mutex free)

at remove USB Storage 
    -  USB bus #2 deregister
     usb_release_dev(second-kref==2)
usb_release_dev(second-kref==1)
    -  USB bus #1 deregister
     usb_release_dev(primary-kref==1)
     usb_release_dev(primary-kref==0) -> hcd_release()
     *(primary-bandwidth_mutex free)
    -  scsi_device_put
     usb_put_hcd    (second-kref==0)  -> hcd_release(*)
     * at this, second->primary==0 therefore try to
free the primary-bandwidth_mutex.(already freed)

    To fix this problem kfree(hcd->bandwidth_mutex);
    should be executed at only (hcd->primary_hcd==hcd).
