Subject: [PATCH 3.18 05/25] ALSA: seq: Dont allow resizing pool in use
Date: Fri, 16 Mar 2018 16:22:52 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180316152232.980168335@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180316152232.750180431@linuxfoundation.org>

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

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

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>

commit d85739367c6d56e475c281945c68fdb05ca74b4c upstream.

This is a fix for a (sort of) fallout in the recent commit
d15d662e89fc ("ALSA: seq: Fix racy pool initializations") for
CVE-2018-1000004.
As the pool resize deletes the existing cells, it may lead to a race
when another thread is writing concurrently, eventually resulting a
UAF.

A simple workaround is not to allow the pool resizing when the pool is
in use.  It's an invalid behavior in anyway.

Fixes: d15d662e89fc ("ALSA: seq: Fix racy pool initializations")
