CVE-2026-53273
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tee: optee: prevent use-after-free when the client exits before the supplicant
Commit 70b0d6b0a199 ("tee: optee: Fix supplicant wait loop") made the client wait as killable so it can be interrupted during shutdown or after a supplicant crash. This changes the original lifetime expectations: the client task can now terminate while the supplicant is still processing its request.
If the client exits first it removes the request from its queue and kfree()s it, while the request ID remains in supp->idr. A subsequent lookup on the supplicant path then dereferences freed memory, leading to a use-after-free.
Leer descripción completaMostrar menos
Serialise access to the request with supp->mutex:
With these changes the request cannot be freed while the supplicant still has a reference, eliminating the race.
Detalles técnicos trazas, registros y código del informe original
* Hold supp->mutex in optee_supp_recv() and optee_supp_send() while
looking up and touching the request.
* Let optee_supp_thrd_req() notice that the client has terminated and
signal optee_supp_send() accordingly.CVSS
