Subject: [PATCH] media: mceusb: fix race between device disconnection and urb callback
Date: Fri, 14 Nov 2025 18:14:31 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251114101432.2566-1-vulab@iscas.ac.cn> (raw)

The mceusb_disconnect() function calls rc_unregister_device() before
usb_kill_urb(), creating a race condition similar to the one fixed in
commit 'f656cfbc7a29'. If rc_unregister_device() executes while the URB
callback mceusb_dev_recv() is still running, mceusb_process_ir_data()
may call ir_raw_event_store_with_filter() or ir_raw_event_handle() with
a freed ir->rc->raw pointer, leading to a NULL pointer dereference.

Call usb_kill_urb() before rc_unregister_device() to ensure all URB
callbacks complete before freeing device resources.

Fixes: d8b4b5822f51 ("[media] ir-core: make struct rc_dev the primary interface")
