CVE-2023-53613

Estado: AnalizadaAlta (7.8)—

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

dax: Fix dax_mapping_release() use after free

A CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE test of removing a device-dax region provider (like modprobe -r dax_hmem) yields:

Due to attempting ida_free() on an ida object that has already been freed. Devices typically only hold a reference on their parent while registered. If a child needs a parent object to complete its release it needs to hold a reference that it drops from its release callback. Arrange for a dax_mapping to pin its parent dev_dax instance until dax_mapping_release().
