This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled USB: gadget: f_midi: fixing a possible double-free in f_midi to my usb git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git in the usb-testing branch. The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.) The patch will be merged to the usb-next branch sometime soon, after it passes testing, and the merge window is open. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From 7fafcfdf6377b18b2a726ea554d6e593ba44349f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Yavuz, Tuba" <tuba@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 23 Mar 2018 17:00:38 +0000 Subject: USB: gadget: f_midi: fixing a possible double-free in f_midi It looks like there is a possibility of a double-free vulnerability on an error path of the f_midi_set_alt function in the f_midi driver. If the path is feasible then free_ep_req gets called twice: req->complete = f_midi_complete; err = usb_ep_queue(midi->out_ep, req, GFP_ATOMIC); => ... usb_gadget_giveback_request => f_midi_complete (CALLBACK) (inside f_midi_complete, for various cases of status) free_ep_req(ep, req); // first kfree if (err) { ERROR(midi, "%s: couldn't enqueue request: %d\n", midi->out_ep->name, err); free_ep_req(midi->out_ep, req); // second kfree return err; } The double-free possibility was introduced with commit ad0d1a058eac ("usb: gadget: f_midi: fix leak on failed to enqueue out requests").
