media: usbtv: prevent double free in error case
commit 50e7044535537b2a54c7ab798cd34c7f6d900bd2 upstream. Quoting the original report: It looks like there is a double-free vulnerability in Linux usbtv driver on an error path of usbtv_probe function. When audio registration fails, usbtv_video_free function ends up freeing usbtv data structure, which gets freed the second time under usbtv_video_fail label. usbtv_audio_fail: usbtv_video_free(usbtv); => v4l2_device_put(&usbtv->v4l2_dev); => v4l2_device_put => kref_put => v4l2_device_release => usbtv_release (CALLBACK) => kfree(usbtv) (1st time) usbtv_video_fail: usb_set_intfdata(intf, NULL); usb_put_dev(usbtv->udev); kfree(usbtv); (2nd time) So, as we have refcounting, use it Reported-by: Yavuz, Tuba <tuba@ece.ufl.edu> Signed-off-by: Oliver Neukum <oneukum@suse.com> CC: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Hans Verkuil <hans.verkuil@cisco.com> Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
