Input: cyttsp4_core - change del_timer_sync() to timer_shutdown_sync()
The watchdog_timer can schedule tx_timeout_task and watchdog_work can also arm watchdog_timer. The process is shown below: ----------- timer schedules work ------------ cyttsp4_watchdog_timer() //timer handler schedule_work(&cd->watchdog_work) ----------- work arms timer ------------ cyttsp4_watchdog_work() //workqueue callback function cyttsp4_start_wd_timer() mod_timer(&cd->watchdog_timer, ...) Although del_timer_sync() and cancel_work_sync() are called in cyttsp4_remove(), the timer and workqueue could still be rearmed. As a result, the possible use after free bugs could happen. The process is shown below: (cleanup routine) | (timer and workqueue routine) cyttsp4_remove() | cyttsp4_watchdog_timer() //timer cyttsp4_stop_wd_timer() | schedule_work() del_timer_sync() | | cyttsp4_watchdog_work() //worker | cyttsp4_start_wd_timer() | mod_timer() cancel_work_sync() | | cyttsp4_watchdog_timer() //timer | schedule_work() del_timer_sync() | kfree(cd) //FREE | | cyttsp4_watchdog_work() // reschedule! | cd-> //USE This patch changes del_timer_sync() to timer_shutdown_sync(), which could prevent rearming of the timer from the workqueue.
