This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled i3c: master: cdns: Fix use after free vulnerability in cdns_i3c_master Driver Due to Race Condition to the 6.11-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: i3c-master-cdns-fix-use-after-free-vulnerability-in-.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.11 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 70c88bde74457e4b5ea16bbd007c62833260b880 Author: Kaixin Wang <kxwang23@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Sep 11 23:35:44 2024 +0800 i3c: master: cdns: Fix use after free vulnerability in cdns_i3c_master Driver Due to Race Condition [ Upstream commit 609366e7a06d035990df78f1562291c3bf0d4a12 ] In the cdns_i3c_master_probe function, &master->hj_work is bound with cdns_i3c_master_hj. And cdns_i3c_master_interrupt can call cnds_i3c_master_demux_ibis function to start the work. If we remove the module which will call cdns_i3c_master_remove to make cleanup, it will free master->base through i3c_master_unregister while the work mentioned above will be used. The sequence of operations that may lead to a UAF bug is as follows: CPU0 CPU1 | cdns_i3c_master_hj cdns_i3c_master_remove | i3c_master_unregister(&master->base) | device_unregister(&master->dev) | device_release | //free master->base | | i3c_master_do_daa(&master->base) | //use master->base Fix it by ensuring that the work is canceled before proceeding with the cleanup in cdns_i3c_master_remove.
