Subject: [PATCH net] nfc: llcp: use timer_shutdown_sync to prevent timer rearm
Date: Fri, 23 Oct 2026 19:54:09 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261023195409.3532540-1-tristmd@gmail.com> (raw)

From: Tristan Madani <tristan@talencesecurity.com>

local_cleanup() uses timer_delete_sync() on link_timer and
sdreq_timer, followed by cancel_work_sync() on their associated
work items.  However, tx_work unconditionally re-arms link_timer
via mod_timer() when it runs, and sdreq_timeout_work conditionally
re-arms sdreq_timer.  If a work callback executes during
cancel_work_sync and re-arms the timer, the timer fires after
kfree(local), producing a crash via schedule_work on freed memory.

Use timer_shutdown_sync() instead, which prevents subsequent
mod_timer() calls from re-arming the timers.

Fixes: d646960f7986 ("NFC: Initial LLCP support")
