| Subject: CVE-2022-49661: can: gs_usb: gs_usb_open/close(): fix memory leak |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| can: gs_usb: gs_usb_open/close(): fix memory leak |
| |
| The gs_usb driver appears to suffer from a malady common to many USB |
| CAN adapter drivers in that it performs usb_alloc_coherent() to |
| allocate a number of USB request blocks (URBs) for RX, and then later |
| relies on usb_kill_anchored_urbs() to free them, but this doesn't |
| actually free them. As a result, this may be leaking DMA memory that's |
| been used by the driver. |
| |
| This commit is an adaptation of the techniques found in the esd_usb2 |
| driver where a similar design pattern led to a memory leak. It |
| explicitly frees the RX URBs and their DMA memory via a call to |
| usb_free_coherent(). Since the RX URBs were allocated in the |
| gs_can_open(), we remove them in gs_can_close() rather than in the |
| disconnect function as was done in esd_usb2. |
| |
| For more information, see the 928150fad41b ("can: esd_usb2: fix memory |
| leak"). |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2022-49661 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: |
