[PATCH 2/5] USB: ftdi_sio: fix use after free in TIOCMIWAIT

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Make sure to check the serial disconnected flag before accessing port
private data after waking up.

This fixes a use after free in the ftdi_sio introduced by commit
876ae50d94b ("USB: ftdi_sio: fix race condition in TIOCMIWAIT, and abort
of TIOCMIWAIT when the device is removed").

When switching to tty ports, some lifetime assumptions where changed.
Specifically, close can now be called before the final tty reference is
dropped as part of hangup at device disconnect. Even with the ftdi
private-data refcounting this means that the port private data can be
freed while a process is sleeping on modem-status changes and thus
cannot be relied on to detect disconnects when woken up.
