CVE-2023-53219

NameCVE-2023-53219
DescriptionIn the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: netup_unidvb: fix use-after-free at del_timer() When Universal DVB card is detaching, netup_unidvb_dma_fini() uses del_timer() to stop dma->timeout timer. But when timer handler netup_unidvb_dma_timeout() is running, del_timer() could not stop it. As a result, the use-after-free bug could happen. The process is shown below: (cleanup routine) | (timer routine) | mod_timer(&dev->tx_sim_timer, ..) netup_unidvb_finidev() | (wait a time) netup_unidvb_dma_fini() | netup_unidvb_dma_timeout() del_timer(&dma->timeout); | | ndev->pci_dev->dev //USE Fix by changing del_timer() to del_timer_sync().
