Descriptions

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

wifi: brcmfmac: Fix use-after-free bug in brcmf_cfg80211_detach

This is the candidate patch of CVE-2023-47233 :
https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-47233

In brcm80211 driver,it starts with the following invoking chain
to start init a timeout worker:

->brcmf_usb_probe
->brcmf_usb_probe_cb
->brcmf_attach
->brcmf_bus_started
->brcmf_cfg80211_attach
->wl_init_priv
->brcmf_init_escan
->INIT_WORK(&cfg->escan_timeout_work,
brcmf_cfg80211_escan_timeout_worker);

If we disconnect the USB by hotplug, it will call
brcmf_usb_disconnect to make cleanup. The invoking chain is :

brcmf_usb_disconnect
->brcmf_usb_disconnect_cb
->brcmf_detach
->brcmf_cfg80211_detach
->kfree(cfg);

While the timeout woker may still be running. This will cause
a use-after-free bug on cfg in brcmf_cfg80211_escan_timeout_worker.

Fix it by deleting the timer and canceling the worker in
brcmf_cfg80211_detach.

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: wifi: brcmfmac: corregido el error de use after free en brcmf_cfg80211_detach Este es el parche candidato de CVE-2023-47233: https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail /CVE-2023-47233 En el controlador brcm80211, comienza con la siguiente cadena de invocación para iniciar un trabajador de tiempo de espera: ->brcmf_usb_probe ->brcmf_usb_probe_cb ->brcmf_attach ->brcmf_bus_started ->brcmf_cfg80211_attach ->wl_init_priv ->brcmf_init_escan ->INIT_WORK(&cfg ->escan_timeout_work, brcmf_cfg80211_escan_timeout_worker); Si desconectamos el USB mediante hotplug, llamará a brcmf_usb_disconnect para realizar la limpieza. La cadena de invocación es: brcmf_usb_disconnect ->brcmf_usb_disconnect_cb ->brcmf_detach ->brcmf_cfg80211_detach ->kfree(cfg); Mientras que el activador de tiempo de espera aún puede estar ejecutándose. Esto provocará un error de use after free en cfg en brcmf_cfg80211_escan_timeout_worker. Soluciónelo eliminando el temporizador y cancelando el trabajador en brcmf_cfg80211_detach. [arend.vanspriel@broadcom.com: mantenga la eliminación del temporizador tal como está y cancele el trabajo justo antes de liberarlo]
