  "summary": "drm/msm: RCU-free the scheduler-containing ring and VM objects",
  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ndrm/msm: RCU-free the scheduler-containing ring and VM objects\n\nBoth struct msm_ringbuffer and struct msm_gem_vm embed a struct\ndrm_gpu_scheduler.  msm_ringbuffer_destroy() and the VM free callback\nmsm_gem_vm_free() call drm_sched_fini() on the embedded scheduler and then\nfree the containing object with plain kfree().\n\ndrm_sched_fence_get_timeline_name() returns fence->sched->name, and the\nscheduler fence keeps a .release callback so it is not ops-detached on\nsignalling.  A finished fence exported to userspace (the submit out-fence, or\na VM_BIND fence, via sync_file / drm_syncobj) keeps pointing at the embedded\nscheduler after the ring/VM is freed, so a later get_timeline_name() --\nreachable unprivileged through SYNC_IOC_FILE_INFO -- dereferences freed slab\nmemory (KASAN slab-use-after-free read).\n\nPer the dma-fence lifetime contract the exporter must keep the data backing a\nsignalled fence alive for an RCU grace period.  Free the scheduler-containing\nobjects with kfree_rcu() instead of kfree().\n\nPatchwork: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/750234/",
