In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: atm: ueagle-atm: wait for pre-firmware load in .disconnect() ueagle-atm uses the asynchronous request_firmware_nowait() in .probe(), but does not wait for its completion, not even in .disconnect(); so, if the device is unplugged meanwhile, its teardown runs concurrently with that. Even though this inconsistency is worth addressing on its own, it has also triggered several bug reports in syzbot over the years (some auto-closed) where the firmware sysfs fallback mechanism (CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER) creates a firmware subdirectory in the device directory during its removal, which might hit unexpected conditions in kernfs, apparently, depending at which point the add and remove operations raced. (See links.)
