[PATCH v2] Input: powermate - fix use-after-free in powermate_config_complete

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



syzbot has found a use-after-free bug [1] in the powermate driver. This
happens when the device is disconnected, which leads to a memory free
from the powermate_device struct.
When an asynchronous control message completes after the kfree and its
callback is invoked, the lock does not exist anymore and hence the bug.

Use usb_kill_urb() on pm->config to cancel any in-progress requests upon
device disconnection. Given that this action is already done on pm->irq,
reorder the code to have both calls after the call to
input_unregister_device(), which is the most common approach.
