Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: pvrusb2: fix use after free on context disconnection Upon module load, a kthread is created targeting the pvr2_context_thread_func function, which may call pvr2_context_destroy and thus call kfree() on the context object. However, that might happen before the usb hub_event handler is able to notify the driver. This patch adds a sanity check before the invalid read reported by syzbot, within the context disconnection call stack.

Affected configurations

• linux linux kernel (< 4.19.306) • linux linux kernel (>= 4.20 < 5.4.268) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.5.0 < 5.10.209) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.11.0 < 5.15.148) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.16.0 < 6.1.75) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.2.0 < 6.6.14) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.7.0 < 6.7.2)
