In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usbip: vudc: Fix use after free bug in vudc_remove due to race condition
This patch follows up Zheng Wang's 2023 report of a use-after-free in
vudc_remove(). The original thread stalled on Shuah Khan's request for
runtime testing of the unplug/unbind path. This patch supplies that
testing and keeps Zheng's original fix shape.
In vudc_probe(), v_init_timer() binds udc->tr_timer.timer to v_timer().
usbip_sockfd_store() starts the timer via v_start_timer()/v_kick_timer().
vudc_remove() can then free the containing struct vudc while the timer is
still pending or executing.
KASAN confirms the race on an unpatched x86_64 QEMU guest with
CONFIG_KASAN=y, CONFIG_USBIP_VUDC=y, CONFIG_USB_ZERO=y, and a tight loop
that repeatedly writes a socket fd to usbip_sockfd, closes the socket
pair, and unbinds/rebinds usbip-vudc.0:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in __run_timer_base.part.0+0x8ba/0x8e0
Write of size 8 at addr ffff888001b80740 by task trigger_and_unb/239
Allocated by task 239:
vudc_probe+0x4d/0xaa0
Freed by task 239:
kfree+0x18f/0x520
device_release_driver_internal+0x388/0x540
unbind_store+0xd9/0x100
This lands in the timer core rather than v_timer() itself because the
embedded timer_list is being walked after its containing struct vudc has
already been freed. The underlying lifetime bug is the same one Zheng
reported.
With v_stop_timer() called from vudc_remove() and the timer deleted
synchronously, the same harness completed 5000 bind/unbind iterations
with no KASAN report.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's USB/IP Virtual USB Device Controller (vudc) component. A race condition exists in the vudc_remove() function, which can lead to a use-after-free vulnerability. This occurs when the system attempts to free a data structure while a timer within it is still active or pending. A local attacker could exploit this by repeatedly manipulating USB/IP devices, potentially causing memory corruption and system instability.
