If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From bfb007aebe6bff451f7f3a4be19f4f286d0d5d9c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Fedor Pchelkin <pchelkin@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 25 Jan 2024 12:53:09 +0300 Subject: nfc: nci: free rx_data_reassembly skb on NCI device cleanup From: Fedor Pchelkin <pchelkin@xxxxxxxxx> commit bfb007aebe6bff451f7f3a4be19f4f286d0d5d9c upstream. rx_data_reassembly skb is stored during NCI data exchange for processing fragmented packets. It is dropped only when the last fragment is processed or when an NTF packet with NCI_OP_RF_DEACTIVATE_NTF opcode is received. However, the NCI device may be deallocated before that which leads to skb leak. As by design the rx_data_reassembly skb is bound to the NCI device and nothing prevents the device to be freed before the skb is processed in some way and cleaned, free it on the NCI device cleanup.
