| Subject: CVE-2021-47058: regmap: set debugfs_name to NULL after it is freed |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| regmap: set debugfs_name to NULL after it is freed |
| |
| There is a upstream commit cffa4b2122f5("regmap:debugfs: |
| Fix a memory leak when calling regmap_attach_dev") that |
| adds a if condition when create name for debugfs_name. |
| With below function invoking logical, debugfs_name is |
| freed in regmap_debugfs_exit(), but it is not created again |
| because of the if condition introduced by above commit. |
| regmap_reinit_cache() |
| regmap_debugfs_exit() |
| ... |
| regmap_debugfs_init() |
| So, set debugfs_name to NULL after it is freed. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2021-47058 to this issue. |

| Mitigation |
| ========== |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest |
| stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual |
| changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel |
| release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or |
| supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to |
| the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this |
| issue can be found at these commits: |
