"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nusb: gadget: u_audio: Fix use-after-free on sound card disconnect\n\ng_audio_cleanup() invokes snd_card_free_when_closed() to initiate sound\ncard teardown and immediately frees the underlying struct snd_uac_chip\ncontext. However, snd_card_free_when_closed() returns asynchronously\nwhile ALSA control elements (kctls) remain open in userspace.\n\nWhen userspace control applications access or close these open file\ndescriptors, kctl callbacks attempt to dereference kctl->private_data\npointing to &uac->c_prm or &uac->p_prm within the freed uac structure,\nresulting in a use-after-free (UAF) memory corruption.\n\nFix this issue by deferring the destruction of struct snd_uac_chip until\nall references to the ALSA sound card are released. Register a custom\ncard->private_free callback (u_audio_card_free) during g_audio_setup()\nthat frees uac and its associated playback/capture request and ring\nbuffers only when the sound card reference count drops to zero."

"value": "AV:L - The UAF is reached from local userspace: configfs UDC unbind calls afunc_unbind/f_audio_unbind → g_audio_cleanup, which frees snd_uac_chip while ALSA kctl/PCM fds still reference it; g_audio_setup runs at function bind with no USB host required, matching gadget teardown scores such as CVE-2024-38628.\nAC:L - The attacker controls both sides by issuing SNDRV_CTL_IOCTL_ELEM_READ/WRITE on the UAC mixer kctls while concurrently unbinding the gadget; snd_card_disconnect does not drain in-flight ioctls before g_audio_cleanup kfree()s the chip, so kctl get/put callbacks dereference freed uac_rtd_params and the race is freely retryable.\nPR:L - Android and embedded USB gadget HALs commonly delegate /sys/kernel/config/usb_gadget UDC writes to non-root service accounts, and the UAC gadget's ALSA control/PCM nodes are reachable by unprivileged local users; init-namespace root is not required once the gadget is deployed.\nUI:N - The attacker performs gadget unbind, holds ALSA fds, and issues mixer ioctls itself; no separate victim action such as plugging a cable or mounting a filesystem is required.\nS:U - The use-after-free corrupts kernel heap objects (snd_uac_chip and its playback/capture rings) within the same host kernel security authority; no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - Kctl get/info/tlv callbacks (u_audio_volume_get, u_audio_rate_get, u_audio_volume_tlv) read volume, rate, and TLV fields from the already-freed snd_uac_chip and copy them to userspace, yielding a use-after-free disclosure primitive that kernel scoring treats as High confidentiality.\nI:H - Kctl put callbacks (u_audio_volume_put, u_audio_mute_put, u_audio_pitch_put) take prm->lock and write volume/mute/pitch into the kfree()'d snd_uac_chip, providing a write-after-free primitive that can be turned into arbitrary write or control-flow hijack.\nA:H - Use of the freed snd_uac_chip, including spin_lock_irqsave on prm->lock and USB ISO completions with req->context pointing into the freed object, reliably produces KASAN reports, oops, and kernel panic."
