Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
media: venus: fix use after free bug in venus_remove due to race condition<br />
<br />
in venus_probe, core->work is bound with venus_sys_error_handler, which is<br />
used to handle error. The code use core->sys_err_done to make sync work.<br />
The core->work is started in venus_event_notify.<br />
<br />
If we call venus_remove, there might be an unfished work. The possible<br />
sequence is as follows:<br />
<br />
CPU0 CPU1<br />
<br />
|venus_sys_error_handler<br />
venus_remove |<br />
hfi_destroy |<br />
venus_hfi_destroy |<br />
kfree(hdev); |<br />
|hfi_reinit<br />
|venus_hfi_queues_reinit<br />
|//use hdev<br />
<br />
Fix it by canceling the work in venus_remove.
