Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
staging: media: tegra-video: fix device_node use after free<br />
<br />
At probe time this code path is followed:<br />
<br />
* tegra_csi_init<br />
* tegra_csi_channels_alloc<br />
* for_each_child_of_node(node, channel) -- iterates over channels<br />
* automatically gets &#39;channel&#39;<br />
* tegra_csi_channel_alloc()<br />
* saves into chan->of_node a pointer to the channel OF node<br />
* automatically gets and puts &#39;channel&#39;<br />
* now the node saved in chan->of_node has refcount 0, can disappear<br />
* tegra_csi_channels_init<br />
* iterates over channels<br />
* tegra_csi_channel_init -- uses chan->of_node<br />
<br />
After that, chan->of_node keeps storing the node until the device is<br />
removed.<br />
<br />
of_node_get() the node and of_node_put() it during teardown to avoid any<br />
risk.
