This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled ALSA: 6fire: Release resources at card release to the 5.4-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: alsa-6fire-release-resources-at-card-release.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 081b5a04e02e0a353ff1d24df48427d15f524fb9 Author: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx> Date: Wed Nov 13 12:10:39 2024 +0100 ALSA: 6fire: Release resources at card release [ Upstream commit a0810c3d6dd2d29a9b92604d682eacd2902ce947 ] The current 6fire code tries to release the resources right after the call of usb6fire_chip_abort(). But at this moment, the card object might be still in use (as we're calling snd_card_free_when_closed()). For avoid potential UAFs, move the release of resources to the card's private_free instead of the manual call of usb6fire_chip_destroy() at the USB disconnect callback.
