This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled USB: c67x00: fix use after free in c67x00_giveback_urb 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-linus 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 hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From 211f08347355cba1f769bbf3355816a12b3ddd55 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Rix <trix@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 8 Jul 2020 06:12:43 -0700 Subject: USB: c67x00: fix use after free in c67x00_giveback_urb clang static analysis flags this error c67x00-sched.c:489:55: warning: Use of memory after it is freed [unix.Malloc] usb_hcd_giveback_urb(c67x00_hcd_to_hcd(c67x00), urb, urbp->status); ^~~~~~~~~~~~ Problem happens in this block of code c67x00_release_urb(c67x00, urb); usb_hcd_unlink_urb_from_ep(c67x00_hcd_to_hcd(c67x00), urb); spin_unlock(&c67x00->lock); usb_hcd_giveback_urb(c67x00_hcd_to_hcd(c67x00), urb, urbp->status); In the call to c67x00_release_urb has this freeing of urbp urbp = urb->hcpriv; urb->hcpriv = NULL; list_del(&urbp->hep_node); kfree(urbp); And so urbp is freed before usb_hcd_giveback_urb uses it as its 3rd parameter.
