The device's remove() attempts to shut down the delayed_work scheduled on the kernel-global workqueue by calling flush_scheduled_work(). Unfortunately, flush_scheduled_work() does not prevent the delayed_work from re-scheduling itself. The delayed_work might run after the device has been removed, and touch the already de-allocated info structure. This is a potential use-after-free. Fix by calling cancel_delayed_work_sync() during remove(): this ensures that the delayed work is properly cancelled, is no longer running, and is not able to re-schedule itself. This issue was detected with the help of Coccinelle. Signed-off-by: Sven Van Asbroeck <TheSven73@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Alexandre Belloni <alexandre.belloni@bootlin.com> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
