Summary
usb: gadget : fix use-after-free in composite_dev_cleanup()
Details

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

usb: gadget : fix use-after-free in compositedevcleanup()

  1. In func configfscompositebind() -> compositeosdescreqprepare(): if kmalloc fails, the pointer cdev->osdescreq will be freed but not set to NULL. Then it will return a failure to the upper-level function.
  2. in func configfscompositebind() -> compositedevcleanup(): it will checks whether cdev->osdescreq is NULL. If it is not NULL, it will attempt to use it.This will lead to a use-after-free issue.
