Thus, having a release callback for it is correct.\n\nAllocating the vm_dev struct with devres totally breaks this protection,\nthough. Instead of waiting for the vm_dev release callback, the memory\nis freed when the platform_device is removed. Resulting in a\nuse-after-free when finally the callback is to be called.\n\nTo easily see the problem, compile the kernel with\nCONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE and unbind with sysfs.\n\nThe fix is easy, don't use devres in this case.\n\nFound during my research about object lifetime problems."}], "lastModified": "2026-01-26T20:11:08.987", "configurations": [{"nodes": [{"negate": false, "cpeMatch": [{"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "ED6316DD-6C72-425B-A7D4-EA2D57F6124C", "versionEndExcluding": "4.19.293", "versionStartIncluding": "4.15.1"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "1379E40A-2AC3-484E-929A-7F46B6C3B521", "versionEndExcluding": "5.4.255", "versionStartIncluding": "4.20"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "9396FFDC-6A0D-44B7-9368-21B456F6D4AE", "versionEndExcluding": "5.10.192", "versionStartIncluding": "5.5"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "1415629F-F97B-4880-BA1E-AF3DBB8EF305", "versionEndExcluding": "5.15.128", "versionStartIncluding": "5.11"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "2EEA01B0-0151-4E0F-B140-1A441EEDD717", "versionEndExcluding": "6.1.47", "versionStartIncluding": "5.16"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "CF8ECF64-40AE-49AB-8315-4D83F9F56ECF", "versionEndExcluding": "6.4.12", "versionStartIncluding": "6.2"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:4.15:-:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "3B4D39AF-668B-442B-8085-639A6D4FA5AC"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:4.15:rc3:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "14E8986E-B317-40EA-B0B5-5D2922D2AF5B"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:4.15:rc4:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "EBC4657A-0239-47DF-B582-87D8DFA69439"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:4.15:rc5:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "0E1F48A9-9185-4554-9265-22CEC01D18FD"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:4.15:rc6:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "639D2465-65E0-40E2-B7A8-BEA9E221DE54"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:4.15:rc7:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "A282AD0B-2D63-4F05-8F89-109A0975B423"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:4.15:rc8:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "30358221-183C-4699-994E-AF51F5D534FC"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:4.15:rc9:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "A5ED80A8-E656-4AE9-921B-C22402C94A4C"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:6.5:rc1:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "0B3E6E4D-E24E-4630-B00C-8C9901C597B0"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:6.5:rc2:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "E4A01A71-0F09-4DB2-A02F-7EFFBE27C98D"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:6.5:rc3:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "F5608371-157A-4318-8A2E-4104C3467EA1"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:6.5:rc4:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "2226A776-DF8C-49E0-A030-0A7853BB018A"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:6.5:rc5:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "6F15C659-DF06-455A-9765-0E6DE920F29A"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:6.5:rc6:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "5B1C14ED-ABC4-41D3-8D9C-D38C6A65B4DE"}], "operator": "OR"}]}], "sourceIdentifier": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67"}
