Subject: [patch 27/28] USB: fix DoS in pwc USB video driver
Date: Thu, 23 Aug 2007 15:27:57 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070823222757.GA18559@kroah.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20070823221811.GA18559@kroah.com>

[-- Attachment #1: usb-fix-dos-in-pwc-usb-video-driver.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 3832 bytes --]

-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Oliver Neukum <oneukum@suse.de>

the pwc driver has a disconnect method that waits for user space to
close the device. This opens up an opportunity for a DoS attack,
blocking the USB subsystem and making khubd's task busy wait in
kernel space. This patch shifts freeing resources to close if an opened
device is disconnected.
