"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nvirtio: fix use-after-free in unregister_virtio_device()\n\ndevice_unregister() is device_del() plus put_device(). When the caller\nholds no extra reference, that drops the last one and runs the release\ncallback, which for several transports frees the memory the embedded\nstruct virtio_device sits in. unregister_virtio_device() then calls\nvirtio_debug_device_exit(), which reads dev->debugfs_dir out of the freed\nobject.\n\nAffected transports are the ones whose release callback frees and whose\nremove path takes no reference: virtio_mmio, virtio_vdpa, virtio_uml,\nmlxbf-tmfifo and virtio_ccw. virtio_pci is unaffected because\nvirtio_pci_remove() brackets the call with get_device() and put_device().\n\nRemove the debugfs entries before the device can go away. They are only\naccessed through the protected debugfs interface, so\ndebugfs_remove_recursive() waits for in-progress file operations before\nreturning. Tearing them down while the device is still alive is therefore\nsafe.\n\nReproduced on User-Mode Linux with CONFIG_KASAN and CONFIG_VIRTIO_DEBUG\nby unbinding a virtio-uml device:\n\n BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in virtio_debug_device_exit+0x36/0x4d\n Read of size 8 at addr 00000000616e0b10 by task init/1\n __asan_report_load8_noabort\n virtio_debug_device_exit+0x36/0x4d\n unregister_virtio_device+0x48/0x75\n virtio_uml_remove\n platform_remove\n device_release_driver_internal\n unbind_store\n\n Freed by task 1:\n kfree\n virtio_uml_release_dev\n device_release\n kobject_put\n put_device\n device_unregister\n\nWith this applied, the report is gone and unbind is clean."
