[PATCH 6.2 637/663] clk: microchip: fix potential UAF in auxdev release callback

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

 



From: Conor Dooley <conor.dooley@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 7455b7007b9e93bcc2bc9c1c6c73a228e3152069 upstream.

Similar to commit 1c11289b34ab ("peci: cpu: Fix use-after-free in
adev_release()"), the auxiliary device is not torn down in the correct
order. If auxiliary_device_add() fails, the release callback will be
called twice, resulting in a UAF. Due to timing, the auxdev code in this
driver "took inspiration" from the aforementioned commit, and thus its
bugs too!

Moving auxiliary_device_uninit() to the unregister callback instead
avoids the issue.
