Описание
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.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ALSA (Advanced Linux Sound Architecture) aloop driver. This Use-After-Free (UAF) vulnerability occurs when loopback_check_format() stops the capture side during a format change, while a concurrent close operation detaches or frees the runtime. An attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a system crash or achieve arbitrary code execution.
