Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-06-18 12:12:53 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

usb: cdns3 fix use-after-free at workaround 2

BUG: KFENCE: use-after-free read in __list_del_entry_valid+0x10/0xac

cdns3_wa2_remove_old_request()
{
	...
	kfree(priv_req->request.buf);
	cdns3_gadget_ep_free_request(&priv_ep->endpoint, &priv_req->request);
	list_del_init(&priv_req->list);
	^^^ use after free
	...
}

cdns3_gadget_ep_free_request() free the space pointed by priv_req,
but priv_req is used in the following list_del_init().

This patch move list_del_init() before cdns3_gadget_ep_free_request().
