🇰🇷 한글 설명

Linux 커널의 Thunderbolt 드라이버에서 요청이 취소될 때 KASAN이 보고한 Use-After-Free 취약점이 발견되었습니다. 요청 취소 과정에서 작업(work)이 중복 스케줄링되어 이미 해제된 메모리에 접근할 수 있는 문제가 발생합니다.

💡 쉬운 설명

컴퓨터의 Thunderbolt 연결을 관리하는 프로그램에서, 작업을 취소하는 도중에 이미 삭제된 데이터를 다시 사용하려고 시도하여 오류가 발생하는 문제입니다. 이로 인해 시스템이 불안정해지거나 예기치 않은 동작이 발생할 수 있습니다.

However, it is already removed from the request_queue and reference count is dropped so when tb_cfg_request_work() triggers again it will access memory that is already released. Fix this so that we first make sure a cancelled request is not handed away from tb_cfg_request_find() or scheduled to run. Then instead of relying on the worker to clean up the request we will do it in tb_cfg_request_cancel() after the work is canceled from running. Make tb_cfg_request_dequeue() release the request only if it was actually removed from the queue.
