From: Oliver Neukum <oneukum@xxxxxxxx> commit 91feb01596e5efc0cc922cc73f5583114dccf4d2 upstream. The work item can operate on 1. stale memory left over from the last transfer the actual length of the data transfered needs to be checked 2. memory already freed the error handling in appledisplay_probe() needs to cancel the work in that case Reported-and-tested-by: syzbot+495dab1f175edc9c2f13@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Oliver Neukum <oneukum@xxxxxxxx> Cc: stable <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20191106124902.7765-1-oneukum@xxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/usb/misc/appledisplay.c | 8 +++++++- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) --- a/drivers/usb/misc/appledisplay.c +++ b/drivers/usb/misc/appledisplay.c @@ -164,7 +164,12 @@ static int appledisplay_bl_get_brightnes 0, pdata->msgdata, 2, ACD_USB_TIMEOUT); - brightness = pdata->msgdata[1]; + if (retval < 2) { + if (retval >= 0) + retval = -EMSGSIZE; + } else { + brightness = pdata->msgdata[1]; + } mutex_unlock(&pdata->sysfslock); if (retval < 0) @@ -299,6 +304,7 @@ error: if (pdata) { if (pdata->urb) { usb_kill_urb(pdata->urb); + cancel_delayed_work_sync(&pdata->work); if (pdata->urbdata) usb_free_coherent(pdata->udev, ACD_URB_BUFFER_LEN, pdata->urbdata, pdata->urb->transfer_dma);
