| Subject: CVE-2022-49307: tty: synclink_gt: Fix null-pointer-dereference in slgt_clean() |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| tty: synclink_gt: Fix null-pointer-dereference in slgt_clean() |
| |
| When the driver fails at alloc_hdlcdev(), and then we remove the driver |
| module, we will get the following splat: |
| |
| [ 25.065966] general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000182: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN PTI |
| [ 25.066914] KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000c10-0x0000000000000c17] |
| [ 25.069262] RIP: 0010:detach_hdlc_protocol+0x2a/0x3e0 |
| [ 25.077709] Call Trace: |
| [ 25.077924] <TASK> |
| [ 25.078108] unregister_hdlc_device+0x16/0x30 |
| [ 25.078481] slgt_cleanup+0x157/0x9f0 [synclink_gt] |
| |
| Fix this by checking whether the 'info->netdev' is a null pointer first. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2022-49307 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: |
