| Sažetak |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: airoha: Fix potential use-after-free in airoha_ppe_deinit()
airoha_ppe_deinit() replaces the NPU pointer with NULL via
rcu_replace_pointer() but does not wait for existing RCU readers
to exit before calling ppe_deinit() and airoha_npu_put(). This can
cause a use-after-free if a reader in an RCU read-side critical
section still holds a reference to the NPU when it is freed.
The init path (airoha_ppe_init) already calls synchronize_rcu()
after rcu_assign_pointer(), but the deinit path introduced in
commit 6abcf751bc08 ("net: airoha: Fix schedule while atomic in
airoha_ppe_deinit()") omitted the matching barrier when switching
from rcu_read_lock()/rcu_dereference() to rcu_replace_pointer().
Add synchronize_rcu() before ppe_deinit() to ensure all existing
RCU readers have completed before the NPU resources are released. |
