Subject: [PATCH v4 2/3] scsi: ufs: rpmb: Decouple device lifecycle from devres to avoid UAF
Date: Sun, 13 Sep 2026 11:36:32 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260913033633.3159296-3-stanleyjhu@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260913033633.3159296-1-stanleyjhu@google.com>
struct ufs_rpmb_dev embeds a struct device but is allocated with
devm_kzalloc() against the host controller. devres frees that memory
when the host driver detaches, regardless of the device reference count,
and probe takes no reference on the RPMB well known LU either. An
in-flight request then runs on a freed scsi_device:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in scsi_execute_cmd+0x998/0xab0
Read of size 8 at addr fff00000c82d4008 by task rpmb_hold/100

scsi_remove_host+0xc0/0x258
ufshcd_remove+0x1c0/0x22c
The release callback cannot clean this up, because it never runs.
rpmb_dev_register() makes the rpmb_dev a child of ufs_rpmb->dev, so
device_add() holds a reference on the parent. ufs_rpmb_remove() only
calls device_unregister() on that parent, whose count therefore never
reaches zero, and ufs_rpmb_device_release() is the only caller of
rpmb_dev_unregister().
Tie the memory to the reference count instead:
- allocate with kzalloc_obj() and free with kfree() in
ufs_rpmb_device_release()
- pin the SCSI WLUN with scsi_device_get() in probe and release it with
scsi_device_put() in the release callback
- call rpmb_dev_unregister() from ufs_rpmb_remove() and from the probe
error unwind, before device_unregister(), so the cycle is broken
- reject requests once the WLUN is offline, rather than submitting to a
device that SCSI has already removed
On its own this patch changes nothing observable: device_register()
still fails because the ufs_rpmb bus is never registered, so no RPMB
device exists. The next patch removes that bus, and the trace above was
taken with both applied. The ordering is deliberate: no commit in this
series enables RPMB registration before the lifetime handling is
correct.
Fixes: b06b8c421485 ("scsi: ufs: core: Add OP-TEE based RPMB driver for UFS devices")
