If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 50aea31c68501b7b8db1ac437f36aa2ac884034c Author: Zheng Wang <zyytlz.wz@xxxxxxx> Date: Sat Mar 18 16:50:23 2023 +0800 media: saa7134: fix use after free bug in saa7134_finidev due to race condition [ Upstream commit 30cf57da176cca80f11df0d9b7f71581fe601389 ] In saa7134_initdev, it will call saa7134_hwinit1. There are three function invoking here: saa7134_video_init1, saa7134_ts_init1 and saa7134_vbi_init1. All of them will init a timer with same function. Take saa7134_video_init1 as an example. It'll bound &dev->video_q.timeout with saa7134_buffer_timeout. In buffer_activate, the timer funtcion is started. If we remove the module or device which will call saa7134_finidev 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 timer works accordingly before cleanup in saa7134_finidev.
