Subject: [PATCH RFC v3 03/15] rust: miscdevice: fix use after free because missing .owner
Date: Sat, 10 Jan 2026 17:08:01 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260110-this_module_fix-v3-3-97a3d9c14e8b@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260110-this_module_fix-v3-0-97a3d9c14e8b@gmail.com>

Currently if miscdevice driver is compiled as module it can cause use
after free when unloading. To reproduce problem with Rust sample driver
we can do:

    tail -f /dev/rust-misc-device
    # And same time as device is open
    sudo rmmod rust_misc_device_module

This will crash system. Fix is to have .owner field filled with module
information. We pass this owner information through vtable.

Reported-by: Youseok Yang <ileixe@gmail.com>
Closes: https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux/issues/1182
Fixes: f893691e7426 ("rust: miscdevice: add base miscdevice abstraction")
