In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: usb: rtl8150: fix use-after-free in rtl8150_start_xmit() syzbot reported a KASAN slab-use-after-free read in rtl8150_start_xmit() when accessing skb->len for tx statistics after usb_submit_urb() has been called: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in rtl8150_start_xmit+0x71f/0x760 drivers/net/usb/rtl8150.c:712 Read of size 4 at addr ffff88810eb7a930 by task kworker/0:4/5226 The URB completion handler write_bulk_callback() frees the skb via dev_kfree_skb_irq(dev->tx_skb). The URB may complete on another CPU in softirq context before usb_submit_urb() returns in the submitter, so by the time the submitter reads skb->len the skb has already been queued to the per-CPU completion_queue and freed by net_tx_action(): CPU A (xmit) CPU B (USB completion softirq)

|-------> write_bulk_callback()
| dev_kfree_skb_irq(dev->tx_skb)
| net_tx_action()
| napi_skb_cache_put() <-- free
netdev->stats.tx_bytes |
+= skb->len; <-- UAF read
Fix it by caching skb->len before submitting the URB and using the
cached value when updating the tx_bytes counter.
The pre-existing tx_bytes semantics are preserved: the counter tracks
the original frame length (skb->len), not the ETH_ZLEN/USB-alignment
padded "count" value that is handed to the device. Changing that
would be a user-visible accounting change and is out of scope for
this UAF fix.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's USB network driver for Realtek RTL8150 devices. A race condition exists in the rtl8150_start_xmit() function, where a network packet's data buffer can be released prematurely. This can lead to a 'use-after-free' vulnerability, allowing the system to attempt to read from memory that has already been freed. Such an issue can result in system instability, crashes, or potentially the disclosure of sensitive information.
