Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: gpio: sloppy-logic-analyzer: fix use-after-free via debugfs trigger on unbind The "trigger" debugfs file has a hand-rolled ->write handler (trigger_write()) that dereferences the per-device gpio_la_poll_priv. The file is created with debugfs_create_file_unsafe(), and the handler never takes a debugfs reference. Nothing keeps the object alive while the handler runs. priv is allocated with devm_kzalloc(). devres frees it when the platform device is unbound. debugfs_create_file_unsafe() installs no full_proxy wrapper, so debugfs_remove_recursive() in gpio_la_poll_remove() does not wait for an in-flight trigger_write(). The blob_lock taken there does not help, because trigger_write() never takes it. A write that races an unbind therefore writes into freed memory: trigger_write() gpio_la_poll_remove() priv = m->private buf = memdup_user() [may sleep] mutex_lock(&priv->blob_lock) debugfs_remove_recursive() [no wait] mutex_unlock(&priv->blob_lock) (remove returns; devres frees priv) priv->trig_data = buf <-- use-after-free write priv->trig_len = count The race is reachable by root via /sys/bus/platform/drivers/gpio-sloppy-logic-analyzer/unbind. Create "trigger" with debugfs_create_file() instead. Its full_proxy wrapper makes debugfs_remove_recursive() drain any in-flight ->write before it returns. The use-after-free is confirmed under KASAN with a minimal reproducer of the same debugfs_create_file_unsafe() plus devm_kzalloc() pattern (available on request); it produces a slab-use-after-free write in the handler.

Nothing keeps the object alive while the\nhandler runs.\n\npriv is allocated with devm_kzalloc(). devres frees it when the platform\ndevice is unbound. debugfs_create_file_unsafe() installs no full_proxy\nwrapper, so debugfs_remove_recursive() in gpio_la_poll_remove() does not\nwait for an in-flight trigger_write(). The blob_lock taken there does not\nhelp, because trigger_write() never takes it. A write that races an unbind\ntherefore writes into freed memory:\n\n  trigger_write()                  gpio_la_poll_remove()\n    priv = m-\u003eprivate\n    buf = memdup_user()  [may sleep]\n                                     mutex_lock(\u0026priv-\u003eblob_lock)\n                                     debugfs_remove_recursive()  [no wait]\n                                     mutex_unlock(\u0026priv-\u003eblob_lock)\n                                   (remove returns; devres frees priv)\n    priv-\u003etrig_data = buf   \u003c-- use-after-free write\n    priv-\u003etrig_len  = count\n\nThe race is reachable by root via\n/sys/bus/platform/drivers/gpio-sloppy-logic-analyzer/unbind.\n\nCreate \"trigger\" with debugfs_create_file() instead. Its full_proxy\nwrapper makes debugfs_remove_recursive() drain any in-flight -\u003ewrite\nbefore it returns.\n\nThe use-after-free is confirmed under KASAN with a minimal reproducer of\nthe same debugfs_create_file_unsafe() plus devm_kzalloc() pattern\n(available on request); it produces a slab-use-after-free write in the\nhandler."
