Asynchronous firmware loading copies the pointer to the name passed as an argument only to be scheduled later and used. This behaviour works well for synchronous calling but in asynchronous mode there's a chance the caller could immediately free the passed string after making the asynchronous call. This could trigger a use after free having the kernel look on disk for arbitrary file names. In order to force-test the issue you can use a test-driver designed to illustrate this issue on github [0], use the next-20150505-fix-use-after-free branch. With this patch applied you get: [ 283.512445] firmware name: test_module_stuff.bin [ 287.514020] firmware name: test_module_stuff.bin [ 287.532489] firmware found Without this patch applied you can end up with something such as: [ 135.624216] firmware name: \xffffff80BJ [ 135.624249] platform fake-dev.0: Direct firmware load for \xffffff80Bi failed with error -2 [ 135.624252] No firmware found [ 135.624252] firmware found Unfortunatley in the worst and most common case however you can typically crash your system with a page fault by trying to free something which you cannot, and/or a NULL pointer dereference [1]. The fix and issue using schedule_work() for asynchronous runs is generalized in the following SmPL grammar patch, when applied to next-20150505 only the firmware_class code is affected. This grammar patch can and should further be generalized to vet for for other kernel asynchronous mechanisms. @ calls_schedule_work @ type T; T *priv_work; identifier func, work_func; identifier work; identifier priv_name, name; expression gfp; @@ func(..., const char *name, ...) { ... priv_work = kzalloc(sizeof(T), gfp); ... - priv_work->priv_name = name; + priv_work->priv_name = kstrdup_const(name, gfp); ...
