Subject: [PATCH v6 0/2] firmware_loader: fix uaf in firmware_fallback_sysfs
Date: Thu, 22 Jul 2021 18:02:27 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210722123229.8731-1-mail@anirudhrb.com> (raw)
This series fixes the use after free in firmware_fallback_sysfs reported
by syzbot at:
https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=de271708674e2093097b
The first patch does some cleanup of the error codes and documents
them properly. The second patch goes on to actually fix the bug.
Changes in v6:
1. v5 didn't actually remove -EAGAIN. So, fixed that.
Changes in v5:
1. Split the patch into two patches as discussed here:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210715232105.am4wsxfclj2ufjdw@garbanzo/
Changes in v4:
Documented the reasons behind the error codes returned from
fw_sysfs_wait_timeout() as suggested by Luis Chamberlain.
Changes in v3:
Modified the patch to incorporate suggestions by Luis Chamberlain in
order to fix the root cause instead of applying a "band-aid" kind of
fix.

Changes in v2:
1. Fixed 1 error and 1 warning (in the commit message) reported by
checkpatch.pl. The error was regarding the format for referring to
another commit "commit <sha> ("oneline")". The warning was for line
longer than 75 chars.
Anirudh Rayabharam (2):
firmware_loader: use -ETIMEDOUT instead of -EAGAIN in
fw_load_sysfs_fallback
firmware_loader: fix use-after-free in firmware_fallback_sysfs
