[PATCH] memstick: r592: Fix UAF bug in r592_remove due to race condition

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

 



In r592_probe, dev->detect_timer was bound with r592_detect_timer.
In r592_irq function, the timer function will be invoked by mod_timer.

If we remove the module which will call hantro_release to make cleanup,
there may be a unfinished work. The possible sequence is as follows,
which will cause a typical UAF bug.

Fix it by canceling the work before cleanup in r592_remove.

                    |r592_detect_timer
r592_remove         |
  memstick_free_host|
  put_device;       |
  kfree(host);      |
                    |
                    | queue_work
                    |   &host->media_checker //use
