From: Pavel Skripkin <paskripkin@xxxxxxxxx> commit 0ac4827f78c7ffe8eef074bc010e7e34bc22f533 upstream. Syzbot reported use-after-free Read in ath9k_hif_usb_rx_cb() [0]. The problem was in incorrect htc_handle->drv_priv initialization. Probable call trace which can trigger use-after-free: ath9k_htc_probe_device() /* htc_handle->drv_priv = priv; */ ath9k_htc_wait_for_target() <--- Failed ieee80211_free_hw() <--- priv pointer is freed <IRQ> ... ath9k_hif_usb_rx_cb() ath9k_hif_usb_rx_stream() RX_STAT_INC() <--- htc_handle->drv_priv access In order to not add fancy protection for drv_priv we can move htc_handle->drv_priv initialization at the end of the ath9k_htc_probe_device() and add helper macro to make all *_STAT_* macros NULL safe, since syzbot has reported related NULL deref in that macros [1] Link: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=6ead44e37afb6866ac0c7dd121b4ce07cb665f60 [0] Link: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=b8101ffcec107c0567a0cd8acbbacec91e9ee8de [1] Fixes: fb9987d0f748 ("ath9k_htc: Support for AR9271 chipset.")
