The race happens because these locks cover\ndifferent scopes, inst->lock protects only the internals of a single\ninstance, while the Macro Blocks Per Frame (MBPF) checker walks the\ncore list under core->lock and reads fields like fmt_src->width and\nfmt_src->height. At the same time, iris_close() may free fmt_src and\nfmt_dst under inst->lock while the instance is still present in the core\nlist. This allows a situation where the MBPF checker, still iterating\nthrough the core list, reaches an instance whose fmt_src was already\nfreed by another thread and ends up dereferencing a dangling pointer,\nresulting in a use-after-free. This happens because the MBPF checker\nassumes that any instance in the core list is fully valid, but the\nfreeing of fmt_src and fmt_dst without removing the instance from the\ncore list is not correct.\n\nThe correct ordering is to defer freeing fmt_src and fmt_dst until after\nthe instance has been removed from the core list and all teardown under\nthe core lock has completed, ensuring that no dangling pointers are ever\nexposed during MBPF checks."}],"metrics":[{"cvssV3_1":{"version":"3.1","vectorString":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","baseScore":7.8,"baseSeverity":"HIGH"}}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/media/platform/qcom/iris/iris_vdec.c","drivers/media/platform/qcom/iris/iris_vdec.h","drivers/media/platform/qcom/iris/iris_venc.c","drivers/media/platform/qcom/iris/iris_venc.h","drivers/media/platform/qcom/iris/iris_vidc.c"],"versions":[{"version":"5ad964ad5656668399f00c76707f0d063b64a4b1","lessThan":"494ffd1712a588e590e6b1e9f876a8c8b24a9180","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"5ad964ad5656668399f00c76707f0d063b64a4b1","lessThan":"3d9593ad1a58c5acc3e5fa2a48222bb7632e6812","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/media/platform/qcom/iris/iris_vdec.c","drivers/media/platform/qcom/iris/iris_vdec.h","drivers/media/platform/qcom/iris/iris_venc.c","drivers/media/platform/qcom/iris/iris_venc.h","drivers/media/platform/qcom/iris/iris_vidc.c"],"versions":[{"version":"6.18","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"6.18","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.0.9","lessThanOrEqual":"7.0.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.1","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.18","versionEndExcluding":"7.0.9"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.18","versionEndExcluding":"7.1"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/494ffd1712a588e590e6b1e9f876a8c8b24a9180"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3d9593ad1a58c5acc3e5fa2a48222bb7632e6812"}],"title":"media: iris: fix use-after-free of fmt_src during MBPF check","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
