3.16.83-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Shuah Khan <shuahkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 6f0dd24a084a17f9984dd49dffbf7055bf123993 upstream. Media devnode open/ioctl could be in progress when media device unregister is initiated. System calls and ioctls check media device registered status at the beginning, however, there is a window where unregister could be in progress without changing the media devnode status to unregistered. process 1 process 2 fd = open(/dev/media0) media_devnode_is_registered() (returns true here) media_device_unregister() (unregister is in progress and devnode isn't unregistered yet) ... ioctl(fd, ...) __media_ioctl() media_devnode_is_registered() (returns true here) ... media_devnode_unregister() ... (driver releases the media device memory) media_device_ioctl() (By this point devnode->media_dev does not point to allocated memory. use-after free in in mutex_lock_nested) BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in mutex_lock_nested+0x79c/0x800 at addr ffff8801ebe914f0 Fix it by clearing register bit when unregister starts to avoid the race. process 1 process 2 fd = open(/dev/media0) media_devnode_is_registered() (could return true here) media_device_unregister() (clear the register bit, then start unregister.) ... ioctl(fd, ...) __media_ioctl() media_devnode_is_registered() (return false here, ioctl returns I/O error, and will not access media device memory) ... media_devnode_unregister() ...
