| Subject: CVE-2021-47356: mISDN: fix possible use-after-free in HFC_cleanup() |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| mISDN: fix possible use-after-free in HFC_cleanup() |
| |
| This module's remove path calls del_timer(). However, that function |
| does not wait until the timer handler finishes. This means that the |
| timer handler may still be running after the driver's remove function |
| has finished, which would result in a use-after-free. |
| |
| Fix by calling del_timer_sync(), which makes sure the timer handler |
| has finished, and unable to re-schedule itself. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2021-47356 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: |
