Details

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

ASoC: dapm: Fix UAF for sndsocpcm_runtime object

When using kernel with the following extra config,

  • CONFIG_KASAN=y
  • CONFIGKASANGENERIC=y
  • CONFIGKASANINLINE=y
  • CONFIGKASANVMALLOC=y
  • CONFIGFRAMEWARN=4096

kernel detects that sndpcmsuspendall() access a freed 'sndsocpcmruntime' object when the system is suspended, which leads to a use-after-free bug:

[ 52.047746] BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in sndpcmsuspend_all+0x1a8/0x270 [ 52.047765] Read of size 1 at addr ffff0000b9434d50 by task systemd-sleep/2330

The sndpcmsync_stop() has a NULL check on 'substream->runtime' before making any access. So we need to always set 'substream->runtime' to NULL everytime we kfree() it.
