commit a18cd6c9b6bc73dc17e8b7e9bd07decaa8833c97 upstream. The USB device descriptor may get changed between two consecutive enumerations on the same device for some reason, such as DFU or malicius device. In that case, we may access the changing descriptor if we don't take the device lock here. The issue is reported: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=901a0d9e6519ef8dc7acab25344bd287dd3c7be9 Cc: stable <stable@vger.kernel.org> Cc: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Reported-by: syzbot+256e56ddde8b8957eabd@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Fixes: 217a9081d8e6 ("USB: add all configs to the "descriptors" attribute") Signed-off-by: Zeng Tao <prime.zeng@hisilicon.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/1599201467-11000-1-git-send-email-prime.zeng@hisilicon.com Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
