From 875979368eb4cfecff9f0e97625b90cc6009269d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ming Lei Date: Sat, 15 Jun 2013 16:36:38 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] firmware loader: fix use-after-free by double abort fw_priv->buf is accessed in both request_firmware_load() and writing to sysfs file of 'loading' context, but not protected by 'fw_lock' entirely. The patch makes sure that access on 'fw_priv->buf' is protected by the lock. So fixes the double abort problem reported by nirinA raseliarison: http://lkml.org/lkml/2013/6/14/188 Reported-and-tested-by: nirinA raseliarison Cc: Guenter Roeck Cc: Bjorn Helgaas Cc: stable # 3.9 Signed-off-by: Ming Lei Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman --- drivers/base/firmware_class.c | 27 ++++++++++++++++++--------- 1 file changed, 18 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/base/firmware_class.c b/drivers/base/firmware_class.c index 4b1f926..01e2103 100644 --- a/drivers/base/firmware_class.c +++ b/drivers/base/firmware_class.c @@ -450,8 +450,18 @@ static void fw_load_abort(struct firmware_priv *fw_priv) { struct firmware_buf *buf = fw_priv->buf; + /* + * There is a small window in which user can write to 'loading' + * between loading done and disappearance of 'loading' + */ + if (test_bit(FW_STATUS_DONE, &buf->status)) + return; + set_bit(FW_STATUS_ABORT, &buf->status); complete_all(&buf->completion); + + /* avoid user action after loading abort */ + fw_priv->buf = NULL; } #define is_fw_load_aborted(buf) \ @@ -528,7 +538,12 @@ static ssize_t firmware_loading_show(struct device *dev, struct device_attribute *attr, char *buf) { struct firmware_priv *fw_priv = to_firmware_priv(dev); - int loading = test_bit(FW_STATUS_LOADING, &fw_priv->buf->status); + int loading = 0; + + mutex_lock(&fw_lock); + if (fw_priv->buf) + loading = test_bit(FW_STATUS_LOADING, &fw_priv->buf->status); + mutex_unlock(&fw_lock); return sprintf(buf, "%d\n", loading); } @@ -570,12 +585,12 @@ static ssize_t firmware_loading_store(struct device *dev, const char *buf, size_t count) { struct firmware_priv *fw_priv = to_firmware_priv(dev); - struct firmware_buf *fw_buf = fw_priv->buf; + struct firmware_buf *fw_buf; int loading = simple_strtol(buf, NULL, 10); int i; mutex_lock(&fw_lock); - + fw_buf = fw_priv->buf; if (!fw_buf) goto out; @@ -777,10 +792,6 @@ static void firmware_class_timeout_work(struct work_struct *work) struct firmware_priv, timeout_work.work); mutex_lock(&fw_lock); - if (test_bit(FW_STATUS_DONE, &(fw_priv->buf->status))) { - mutex_unlock(&fw_lock); - return; - } fw_load_abort(fw_priv); mutex_unlock(&fw_lock); } @@ -861,8 +872,6 @@ static int _request_firmware_load(struct firmware_priv *fw_priv, bool uevent, cancel_delayed_work_sync(&fw_priv->timeout_work); - fw_priv->buf = NULL; - device_remove_file(f_dev, &dev_attr_loading); err_del_bin_attr: device_remove_bin_file(f_dev, &firmware_attr_data); -- 2.7.4
