Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bus: fsl-mc: fix use-after-free in driver_override_show()
The driver_override_show() function reads the driver_override string
without holding the device_lock. However, driver_override_store() uses
driver_set_override(), which modifies and frees the string while holding
the device_lock.
This can result in a concurrent use-after-free if the string is freed
by the store function while being read by the show function.
Fix this by holding the device_lock around the read operation.
Affected configurations
• linux linux kernel (>= 5.10 < 5.15.201)
• linux linux kernel (>= 5.16 < 6.1.164)
• linux linux kernel (>= 6.2 < 6.6.127)
