In the em23xx module init function, we need to unregister video device in some error case. There is a concurrent scenario as shown below: CPU0 CPU1 em28xx_v4l2_init mutex_lock(&dev->lock)) video_register_device --register vdev v4l2_open em28xx_v4l2_open v4l2_mc_create_media_graph --failed to create media graph kref_put free v4l2 ptr mutex_unlock(&dev->lock)) mutex_lock(&dev->lock)) em28xx_resolution_set access v4l2 ptr trigger a UAF problem Fix the bug by add register status check after grab the mutex in v4l2_fh_open. general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000383: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN KASAN: probably user-memory-access in range [0x0000000000001c18-0x0000000000001c1f] CPU: 3 PID: 11033 Comm: v4l_id Tainted: G B W 6.1.0-rc2-00062-ga970174d7a10-dirty #10 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.15.0-0-g2dd4b9b3f840-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:em28xx_resolution_set.isra.0+0xe8/0x730 Code: 0f 85 cf 05 00 00 44 0f b6 a5 3c 01 00 00 48 8d bb 18 1c 00 00 48 b8 00 00 00 00 00 fc ff df 48 89 fa 48 c1 ea 03 41 83 e4 10 <80> 3c 02 00 0f 85 1b 06 00 00 48 8b 83 18 1c 00 00 31 ff 44 89 e6 RSP: 0018:ffffc9001c817818 EFLAGS: 00010246 RAX: dffffc0000000000 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: 0000000000000000 RDX: 0000000000000383 RSI: ffffffff863b628d RDI: 0000000000001c18 RBP: ffff8880536d8000 R08: 0000000000000005 R09: 0000000000000002 R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000001 R12: 0000000000000000 R13: ffff8880536d8000 R14: ffff8880536d813c R15: 0000000000000000 FS: 00007f0809077700(0000) GS:ffff888135d00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 00007f79d74a3d78 CR3: 00000000413c3000 CR4: 00000000001526e0 Call Trace: <TASK> em28xx_v4l2_open+0x455/0x570 v4l2_open+0x21c/0x3f0 chrdev_open+0x266/0x770 do_dentry_open+0x67f/0x13c0 path_openat+0x1bad/0x27c0 do_filp_open+0x1c5/0x410 do_sys_openat2+0x16d/0x4c0 __x64_sys_open+0x119/0x1c0 do_syscall_64+0x35/0x80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0xcd RIP: 0033:0x7f0808baf650 Code: 64 48 8b 14 25 00 00 00 00 c7 04 02 02 00 00 00 83 c8 ff e9 fa fe ff ff 66 90 83 3d ad e2 2a 00 00 75 10 b8 02 00 00 00 0f 05 <48> 3d 01 f0 ff ff 73 31 c3 48 83 ec 08 e8 1e a8 01 00 48 89 04 24 RSP: 002b:00007ffc9ad7ba88 EFLAGS: 00000246 ORIG_RAX: 0000000000000002 RAX: ffffffffffffffda RBX: 00007ffc9ad7bc48 RCX: 00007f0808baf650 RDX: 0000000000000002 RSI: 0000000000000000 RDI: 00007ffc9ad7cf17 RBP: 0000000000000000 R08: 00007f0808c1c889 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 00007ffc9ad7b860 R11: 0000000000000246 R12: 0000000000400700 R13: 00007ffc9ad7bc40 R14: 0000000000000000 R15: 0000000000000000 </TASK> Modules linked in: ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]--- RIP: 0010:em28xx_resolution_set.isra.0+0xe8/0x730 Code: 0f 85 cf 05 00 00 44 0f b6 a5 3c 01 00 00 48 8d bb 18 1c 00 00 48 b8 00 00 00 00 00 fc ff df 48 89 fa 48 c1 ea 03 41 83 e4 10 <80> 3c 02 00 0f 85 1b 06 00 00 48 8b 83 18 1c 00 00 31 ff 44 89 e6 RSP: 0018:ffffc9001c817818 EFLAGS: 00010246 RAX: dffffc0000000000 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: 0000000000000000 RDX: 0000000000000383 RSI: ffffffff863b628d RDI: 0000000000001c18 RBP: ffff8880536d8000 R08: 0000000000000005 R09: 0000000000000002 R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000001 R12: 0000000000000000 R13: ffff8880536d8000 R14: ffff8880536d813c R15: 0000000000000000 FS: 00007f0809077700(0000) GS:ffff888135d00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 00007f79d7482d78 CR3: 00000000413c3000 CR4: 00000000001526e0 ---------------- Code disassembly (best guess): 0: 0f 85 cf 05 00 00 jne 0x5d5 6: 44 0f b6 a5 3c 01 00 movzbl 0x13c(%rbp),%r12d d: 00 e: 48 8d bb 18 1c 00 00 lea 0x1c18(%rbx),%rdi 15: 48 b8 00 00 00 00 00 movabs $0xdffffc0000000000,%rax 1c: fc ff df 1f: 48 89 fa mov %rdi,%rdx 22: 48 c1 ea 03 shr $0x3,%rdx 26: 41 83 e4 10 and $0x10,%r12d * 2a: 80 3c 02 00 cmpb $0x0,(%rdx,%rax,1) <-- trapping instruction 2e: 0f 85 1b 06 00 00 jne 0x64f 34: 48 8b 83 18 1c 00 00 mov 0x1c18(%rbx),%rax 3b: 31 ff xor %edi,%edi 3d: 44 89 e6 mov %r12d,%esi Signed-off-by: Lihong Kou <koulihong@xxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/media/usb/em28xx/em28xx-video.c | 9 +++++++++ 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/media/usb/em28xx/em28xx-video.c b/drivers/media/usb/em28xx/em28xx-video.c index 25e0620deff1..b8ab42e46c9b 100644 --- a/drivers/media/usb/em28xx/em28xx-video.c +++ b/drivers/media/usb/em28xx/em28xx-video.c @@ -2150,6 +2150,15 @@ static int em28xx_v4l2_open(struct file *filp) if (mutex_lock_interruptible(&dev->lock)) return -ERESTARTSYS; + if (!video_is_registered(vdev)) { + ret = -ENODEV; + dev_err(&dev->intf->dev, + "%s: v4l2_fh_open() returned error %d\n", + __func__, ret); + mutex_unlock(&dev->lock); + return ret; + } + ret = v4l2_fh_open(filp); if (ret) { dev_err(&dev->intf->dev, -- 2.31.1
