Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: esd_usb: kill anchored URBs before freeing netdevs
esd_usb_disconnect() frees each CAN netdev with free_candev() inside
its per-netdev loop and only calls unlink_all_urbs(dev) afterwards.
The per-netdev private data (struct esd_usb_net_priv) is embedded in
the net_device allocation returned by alloc_candev(), so once
free_candev() has run, dev->nets[i] points to freed memory.
unlink_all_urbs() then dereferences the freed dev->nets[i] to kill the
per-netdev TX anchor (usb_kill_anchored_urbs(&priv->tx_submitted)),
clear active_tx_jobs, and reset priv->tx_contexts[].
Reorder the teardown so the anchored URBs are killed before the netdevs
are freed, matching other CAN/USB drivers in the same directory such as
ems_usb, usb_8dev and mcba_usb, which unregister, then unlink, then
free: unregister the netdevs first (which stops their TX queues), call
unlink_all_urbs(dev) once, then free the netdevs.
This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool.
