CVE-2021-47323

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: watchdog: sc520_wdt: Fix possible use-after-free in wdt_turnoff() This module's remove path calls del_timer(). However, that function does not wait until the timer handler finishes. This means that the timer handler may still be running after the driver's remove function has finished, which would result in a use-after-free. Fix by calling del_timer_sync(), which makes sure the timer handler has finished, and unable to re-schedule itself.

Summary
  • (es) En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: watchdog: sc520_wdt: corrige posible use after free en wdt_turnoff(). La ruta de eliminación de este módulo llama a del_timer(). Sin embargo, esa función no espera hasta que finalice el controlador del temporizador. Esto significa que es posible que el controlador del temporizador aún esté ejecutándose después de que haya finalizado la función de eliminación del controlador, lo que daría como resultado un use after free. Para solucionarlo, llame a del_timer_sync(), lo que garantiza que el controlador del temporizador haya finalizado y no pueda reprogramarse.
