Title
ALSA: aloop: Fix peer runtime UAF during format-change stop
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: aloop: Fix peer runtime UAF during format-change stop
loopback_check_format() may stop the capture side when playback starts
with parameters that no longer match a running capture stream. Commit
826af7fa62e3 ("ALSA: aloop: Fix racy access at PCM trigger") moved
the peer lookup under cable->lock, but the actual snd_pcm_stop() still
runs after dropping that lock.
A concurrent close can clear the capture entry from cable->streams[] and
detach or free its runtime while the playback trigger path still holds a
stale peer substream pointer.
Keep a per-cable count of in-flight peer stops before dropping
cable->lock, and make free_cable() wait for those stops before
detaching the runtime. This preserves the existing behavior while
making the peer runtime lifetime explicit.

Commit\n826af7fa62e3 (\"ALSA: aloop: Fix racy access at PCM trigger\") moved\nthe peer lookup under cable-\u003elock, but the actual snd_pcm_stop() still\nruns after dropping that lock.\n\nA concurrent close can clear the capture entry from cable-\u003estreams[] and\ndetach or free its runtime while the playback trigger path still holds a\nstale peer substream pointer.\n\nKeep a per-cable count of in-flight peer stops before dropping\ncable-\u003elock, and make free_cable() wait for those stops before\ndetaching the runtime. This preserves the existing behavior while\nmaking the peer runtime lifetime explicit."

Commit\n826af7fa62e3 (\"ALSA: aloop: Fix racy access at PCM trigger\") moved\nthe peer lookup under cable-\u003elock, but the actual snd_pcm_stop() still\nruns after dropping that lock.\n\nA concurrent close can clear the capture entry from cable-\u003estreams[] and\ndetach or free its runtime while the playback trigger path still holds a\nstale peer substream pointer.\n\nKeep a per-cable count of in-flight peer stops before dropping\ncable-\u003elock, and make free_cable() wait for those stops before\ndetaching the runtime. This preserves the existing behavior while\nmaking the peer runtime lifetime explicit."

"value": "AV:L - The vulnerable code is reached only through local ALSA PCM device files (/dev/snd/pcmC*D*) via open/ioctl syscalls; there is no remote or network-facing path to the aloop trigger callback.\nAC:L - The attacker controls both sides of the race by opening both loopback substreams and repeatedly triggering playback START while concurrently closing the capture stream; syzbot reproduces it readily, so no condition is outside attacker control.\nPR:L - Exploitation requires only access to /dev/snd PCM nodes, which an unprivileged local user obtains via the audio group or udev session ACLs on systems where snd-aloop is loaded; no real root is needed.\nUI:N - The attacker performs all open/trigger/close operations themselves; no victim action is required.\nS:U - The use-after-free and its impact are confined within the kernel\u0027s own security authority; there is no crossing of a VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary.\nC:H - The UAF on the freed snd_pcm_runtime heap object lets an attacker reclaim it via heap spraying and read attacker-influenced/adjacent kernel memory, yielding high confidentiality impact.\nI:H - Re-entering snd_pcm_stop()/the trigger op on a freed, attacker-reclaimable object enables a write/control-flow primitive via heap spraying, giving high integrity impact.\nA:H - The use-after-free dereferences freed kernel memory, reliably causing an oops/kernel panic and thus high availability impact."

Drag nodes to arrange them. Double-click a related vulnerability to open it, or a source to visit its link. The Physics button on the left tunes the layout and the simulation; the legend at the bottom left hides or shows nodes by kind and by sighting type.
Experimental. This forecast is provided for visualization only and may change without notice. Do not use it for operational decisions.
Forecast uses a logistic model when the trend is rising, or an exponential decay model when the trend is falling. Fitted via linearized least squares.

Nomenclature
- Seen: The vulnerability was mentioned, discussed, or observed by the user.
- Confirmed: The vulnerability has been validated from an analyst's perspective.
- Published Proof of Concept: A public proof of concept is available for this vulnerability.
- Exploited: The vulnerability was observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
- Patched: The vulnerability was observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.
- Not exploited: The vulnerability was not observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
- Not confirmed: The user expressed doubt about the validity of the vulnerability.
- Not patched: The vulnerability was not observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.
Vulnerability timeline
Sightings and recorded dates, grouped by day · UTC
How durations are calculated
Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.
Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the
vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base
model, served locally by ML-Gateway.
They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
