Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

spmi: mediatek: Fix UAF on device remove

The pmif driver data that contains the clocks is allocated along with
spmi_controller.
On device remove, spmi_controller will be freed first, and then devres
, including the clocks, will be cleanup.
This leads to UAF because putting the clocks will access the clocks in
the pmif driver data, which is already freed along with spmi_controller.

This can be reproduced by enabling DEBUG_TEST_DRIVER_REMOVE and
building the kernel with KASAN.

Fix the UAF issue by using unmanaged clk_bulk_get() and putting the
clocks before freeing spmi_controller.

En el kernel de Linux, se resolvió la siguiente vulnerabilidad: spmi: mediatek: reparar UAF en la eliminación del dispositivo. Los datos del controlador pmif que contienen los relojes se asignan junto con spmi_controller. Al eliminar el dispositivo, primero se liberará spmi_controller y luego se limpiarán los devres, incluidos los relojes. Esto lleva a UAF porque al poner los relojes se accederá a los relojes en los datos del controlador pmif, que ya están liberados junto con spmi_controller. Esto se puede reproducir habilitando DEBUG_TEST_DRIVER_REMOVE y compilando el kernel con KASAN. Solucione el problema de UAF utilizando clk_bulk_get() no administrado y poniendo los relojes antes de liberar spmi_controller.
