usb: phy: fsl-usb: Fix use-after-free in delayed work during device removal
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: phy: fsl-usb: Fix use-after-free in delayed work during device removal
The delayed work item otg_event is initialized in fsl_otg_conf() and
scheduled under two conditions:
1. When a host controller binds to the OTG controller.
2. When the USB ID pin state changes (cable insertion/removal).
A race condition occurs when the device is removed via fsl_otg_remove():
the fsl_otg instance may be freed while the delayed work is still pending
or executing. This leads to use-after-free when the work function
fsl_otg_event() accesses the already freed memory.
The problematic scenario:
(detach thread) | (delayed work)
fsl_otg_remove() |
kfree(fsl_otg_dev) //FREE| fsl_otg_event()
| og = container_of(...) //USE
| og-> //USE
Fix this by calling disable_delayed_work_sync() in fsl_otg_remove()
before deallocating the fsl_otg structure. This ensures the delayed work
is properly canceled and completes execution prior to memory deallocation.
This bug was identified through static analysis.
