Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

misc: fastrpc: fix list iterator in fastrpcreqmemunmapimpl

This is another instance of incorrect use of list iterator and checking it for NULL.

The list iterator value 'map' will always be set and non-NULL by listforeach_entry(), so it is incorrect to assume that the iterator value will be NULL if the list is empty (in this case, the check 'if (!map) {' will always be false and never exit as expected).

To fix the bug, use a new variable 'iter' as the list iterator, while use the original variable 'map' as a dedicated pointer to point to the found element.

Without this patch, Kernel crashes with below trace:

Unable to handle kernel access to user memory outside uaccess routines at virtual address 0000ffff7fb03750 ...
