Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
media: pci: cx23885: Fix the error handling in cx23885_initdev()<br />
<br />
When the driver fails to call the dma_set_mask(), the driver will get<br />
the following splat:<br />
<br />
[ 55.853884] BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in __process_removed_driver+0x3c/0x240<br />
[ 55.854486] Read of size 8 at addr ffff88810de60408 by task modprobe/590<br />
[ 55.856822] Call Trace:<br />
[ 55.860327] __process_removed_driver+0x3c/0x240<br />
[ 55.861347] bus_for_each_dev+0x102/0x160<br />
[ 55.861681] i2c_del_driver+0x2f/0x50<br />
<br />
This is because the driver has initialized the i2c related resources<br />
in cx23885_dev_setup() but not released them in error handling, fix this<br />
bug by modifying the error path that jumps after failing to call the<br />
dma_set_mask().
