In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: f_tcm: synchronize delayed set_alt with teardown
The f_tcm set_alt() path defers endpoint setup to a work item and
completes the delayed status response from process context. The delayed
work uses f_tcm private state and may complete the setup request after
disconnect or function teardown has already moved on.
Cancel and drain the delayed set_alt work when the function is unbound or
freed. For disable paths, which are reached under the composite device
lock, use a small state machine and a non-sleeping cancellation path
instead of cancel_work_sync(). If the work is already running, mark it
cancelled and let the worker own the cleanup; otherwise tcm_disable() can
cancel the queued work and clean up immediately.
Also serialize the final delayed-status completion with the cancellation
check while holding the composite device lock. This prevents a disconnect
from clearing delayed_status while the worker is about to complete the
control request.
Validation reproduced this kernel report:
