"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ngpio: mpsse: fix race when arming the IRQ poll worker\n\ngpio_mpsse_irq_enable() arms the poll worker before publishing it:\nschedule_work() runs before the worker is added to priv->workers. If\ngpio_mpsse_disconnect() walks the list in that window it misses the\nworker, and once disconnect returns, the USB core frees mpsse_priv\nwhile the orphaned gpio_mpsse_poll() work keeps accessing it, causing\na use-after-free.\n\nFix this by publishing and arming the worker in one irq_spin\ncritical section. Teardown walks the same list under irq_spin, so a\nworker found on the list is guaranteed to be armed, and\ncancel_work_sync() handles it whether it is queued or running.\n\nA worker armed after the disconnect walk would still be missed, so\nalso set a new priv->dying flag under irq_spin before the teardown\nwalk, and check it in the same critical section, freeing it via\nkfree_rcu() instead when the device is going away, since kfree()\nwould be called with the IRQ core's raw spinlock held and may sleep\non PREEMPT_RT. schedule_work() is safe to call with irq_spin held,\nand the next probe gets a fresh mpsse_priv, so the flag never needs\nto be cleared.\n\nThis issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool."
