| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: at91_udc: drain polled-VBUS timer/work before udc is freed
In polled-VBUS mode (board.vbus_pin && board.vbus_polled), probe arms a
self-restarting cycle: at91_vbus_timer() schedules vbus_timer_work, and
at91_vbus_timer_work() calls at91_vbus_update() and re-arms the timer via
mod_timer(). Both recover the same udc through container_of and dereference
it on every iteration.
Neither teardown path cancels this cycle. udc is devm-allocated, so it is
freed after at91udc_remove() returns, and is likewise freed when probe
fails and devres runs. A timer callback or work item that is pending or
running at either point dereferences the freed udc.
Add at91_udc_shutdown_vbus_timer() and call it from at91udc_remove() and
from the usb_add_gadget_udc() failure path in probe; the remaining probe
error paths fail before the timer is armed. timer_shutdown_sync() waits
for a running callback and clears timer->function, which makes the work
handler's mod_timer() a permanent no-op; cancel_work_sync() then drains
any pending or running work whose re-arm attempt now does nothing. The
timer must be shut down first, since cancelling the work alone would let
the timer re-queue it. The guard mirrors probe: in IRQ mode the timer and
work_struct are never initialized.
This does not require a fault; a normal driver unbind can interleave with
an already queued work item.
This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: RCU-protect cl_cb_session to fix use-after-free on session teardown
After a DESTROY_SESSION the per-session teardown path can free a
session while rpciod still holds an inflight callback rpc_task that
dereferences clp->cl_cb_session. nfsd4_probe_callback_sync() flushes
cl_callback_wq, but once nfsd4_run_cb_work() has called
rpc_call_async() the rpc_task lives on rpciod; flushing the workqueue
does not wait for it. rpc_shutdown_client() does drain rpciod tasks,
but uses a 1-second wait_event_timeout — tasks stuck in rpc_delay()
(e.g. 2-second NFS4ERR_DELAY retries) can outlive the drain.
destroy path rpciod
------------ ------
unhash_session(ses)
nfsd4_probe_callback_sync(clp)
flush_workqueue(cl_callback_wq)
/* returns; rpc_task still live */
nfsd4_put_session_locked(ses)
free_session(ses) -> kfree(ses)
nfsd4_cb_sequence_done()
reads cb_clp->cl_cb_session
/* freed slab */
A second window exists in nfsd4_process_cb_update(). When
__nfsd4_find_backchannel() returns NULL because unhash_session() has
already removed the destroyed session from cl_sessions,
setup_callback_client() takes the v4.1 early return so
clp->cl_cb_session = ses never fires and the field retains a pointer
to the about-to-be-freed session.
Fix both by converting cl_cb_session to an RCU-protected pointer:
- Move the cl_cb_session = ses assignment in setup_callback_client()
to after rpc_create() succeeds, so it is only published when a
working backchannel exists. Clear cl_cb_session on the error
return in nfsd4_process_cb_update(). Both stores use
rcu_assign_pointer().
- Annotate cl_cb_session with __rcu. All rpciod-side readers use
rcu_read_lock()/rcu_dereference() and check for NULL, bailing to
the appropriate error or requeue path:
encode_cb_sequence4args(), decode_cb_sequence4resok(),
nfsd41_cb_get_slot(), nfsd41_cb_release_slot(),
nfsd4_cb_prepare(), and nfsd4_cb_sequence_done().
- Switch __free_session() from kfree() to kfree_rcu() so the
session slab is not reclaimed until after an RCU grace period,
guaranteeing that rpciod readers inside rcu_read_lock() never
dereference freed memory.
- Pass the session pointer to the nfsd_cb_seq_status and
nfsd_cb_free_slot tracepoints instead of having them re-read
cl_cb_session.
- nfsd4_cb_prepare() calls rpc_exit() when the session is NULL,
routing through the done/release path to requeue the callback. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: set SC_STATUS_FREED in nfsd4_drop_revoked_stid for delegations
nfsd4_drop_revoked_stid() handles FREE_STATEID for admin-revoked
delegations but does not set SC_STATUS_FREED before releasing cl_lock.
revoke_delegation() uses this flag to detect whether FREE_STATEID has
already processed the delegation -- without it, the freed delegation is
added to cl_revoked via list_add(), producing a use-after-free when
cl_revoked is later traversed in __destroy_client().
The SC_STATUS_REVOKED path in nfsd4_free_stateid() (line 7983) already
sets SC_STATUS_FREED correctly. Apply the same pattern to the
SC_STATUS_ADMIN_REVOKED path in nfsd4_drop_revoked_stid(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: defer vfree of compound ops to fix rpc_status UAF
The rpc_status netlink dumpit walks every in-flight svc_rqst under
rcu_read_lock and, for NFSv4 requests, reads opnums out of
args->ops[]. But args->ops is a separate vmalloc buffer freed
synchronously by vfree() in nfsd4_release_compoundargs() at the end
of every compound. The dumpit's rcu_read_lock pins the svc_rqst
struct itself (freed via kfree_rcu), but nothing defers the vfree
of the ops buffer across the RCU grace period. A concurrent compound
completion can therefore free the buffer while the dumpit is reading
it — a use-after-free on vmalloc memory.
The trailing seqcount recheck (smp_load_acquire of rq_status_counter)
cannot undo a load that already retired against freed memory.
Fix by replacing vfree(args->ops) with kvfree_rcu_mightsleep(), which
defers the free until after an RCU grace period. This makes the
existing rcu_read_lock in the dumpit sufficient to protect the read.
The tradeoff is that completed compound ops buffers (up to
200 * sizeof(struct nfsd4_op)) persist in memory slightly longer,
across one grace period, before being reclaimed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: don't free session slots that are still in use
nfsd4_sequence() can free the very slot it is currently processing.
When the session shrinker has reduced se_target_maxslots below
se_fchannel.maxreqs, the shrink path checks three conditions before
calling free_session_slots():
1. se_target_maxslots < maxreqs (shrink was advertised)
2. slot->sl_generation == se_slot_gen (slot is up-to-date)
3. seq->maxslots <= se_target_maxslots (client acknowledges)
However, seq->slotid is never checked against se_target_maxslots.
A client using a slot in the range [se_target_maxslots, maxreqs) can
satisfy all three conditions: its slot has the current generation
(set by a prior SEQUENCE), and it sends sa_highest_slotid <=
se_target_maxslots to acknowledge the reduction.
free_session_slots() then kfrees every slot at index >=
se_target_maxslots, including the caller's own slot. The function
continues to write sl_seqid, sl_flags, sl_generation, and stores the
dangling pointer in cstate->slot. Later, nfsd4_store_cache_entry()
copies up to maxresp_cached bytes of the compound reply into the freed
sl_data[] array, corrupting whatever slab object now occupies that
address.
Additionally, a concurrent thread processing SEQUENCE on a different
high-numbered slot can have its slot freed out from under it.
NFSD4_SLOT_INUSE is set under nn->client_lock before the lock is
released, so any concurrent thread past SEQUENCE will have its slot
marked. However, free_session_slots() does not check NFSD4_SLOT_INUSE
before freeing.
Fix both problems by:
1. Checking that the current request's slotid is below the shrink
boundary.
2. Scanning slots in the to-be-freed range for NFSD4_SLOT_INUSE and
deferring the shrink if any are active. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: drop the stateid, not the stateowner, on seqid_op replay retry
In nfs4_preprocess_seqid_op() the stateid is obtained from
nfsd4_lookup_stateid(), which holds a reference on the nfs4_stid
(sc_count) but takes no reference on the stateowner. openlockstateid()
merely casts that stid and likewise takes no reference.
When nfsd4_cstate_assign_replay() returns -EAGAIN (the replay owner is
being torn down, RP_UNHASHED) it has not taken a stateowner reference on
that path. The error handling nevertheless called
nfs4_put_stateowner(stp->st_stateowner), dropping an so_count reference
the function never acquired -- risking a stateowner refcount underflow and
use-after-free -- while leaking the sc_count reference held on the stid.
The leaked stid reference can also stall a concurrent
nfsd4_close_open_stateid() waiting for sc_count to drop.
Drop the reference actually held -- the stid -- before retrying. The
stateowner stays alive through the reference held by the stid. This mirrors
the open path in nfsd4_process_open1(), where the put balances a reference
that path explicitly holds on the stateowner. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix fcache_disposal UAF by inlining dispose state into nfsd_net
nfsd_file_dispose_list_delayed() defers fput() to nfsd service threads
via a per-net freeme queue, preventing the shrinker and GC worker from
bearing the cost of closing files (see ffb402596147). However, the
queue lives in a separately-allocated struct nfsd_fcache_disposal that
is freed by nfsd_free_fcache_disposal_net() during per-net teardown.
The global shrinker, laundrette, and fsnotify callbacks can still be
inside nfsd_file_dispose_list_delayed() dereferencing that pointer,
causing a use-after-free.
Inline the spinlock and freeme list directly into struct nfsd_net (as
fcache_dispose_lock and fcache_dispose_list), eliminating the separately
allocated struct nfsd_fcache_disposal entirely. These fields now have
the same lifetime as the net namespace itself, so there is no dangling
pointer to chase.
nfsd_file_cache_start_net() now just initializes the inline fields and
cannot fail due to allocation. nfsd_file_cache_shutdown_net() drains
the inline list directly instead of freeing a separate struct. The
alloc/free helpers are removed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix partial-write detection in nfsd_direct_write
nfsd_direct_write() walks a list of write segments and, after each
vfs_iocb_iter_write(), tries to detect a short write so the loop can
stop before placing the next segment at a wrong file offset:
host_err = vfs_iocb_iter_write(file, kiocb, &segments[i].iter);
if (host_err < 0)
return host_err;
*cnt += host_err;
if (host_err < segments[i].iter.count)
break; /* partial write */
vfs_iocb_iter_write() runs the iter through ->write_iter(), which
advances the iter by the number of bytes written. By the time the
check runs, segments[i].iter.count is the residual, not the original
request length:
before write_iter: iter.count == original_len
after write_iter: iter.count == original_len - host_err
The condition then reduces to host_err < original_len - host_err, so
the break fires only when less than half of the segment was written.
Any short write completing between 50% and 99% of the segment slips
through; the loop advances to the next segment with kiocb->ki_pos
only bumped by the short amount, writing the next segment's payload
at the wrong offset and over-reporting *cnt to the NFS client.
Snapshot the segment's byte count before the write and compare
host_err against that snapshot so any short write breaks the loop. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix possible fh_compose of wrong dentry in nfsd4_create_file()
dentry_create() can hypothetically provide a different dentry than the
one passed in. This could happen, for example, if the exported
filesystem is NFS, and the server returned to OPEN a filehandle which
matched a directory that was already in the dcache. Clearly this would
not be expected!
If this were to happen the dentry (child) that was already stored in
resfhp could be freed and later dereferenced.
We shouldn't call fh_compose() until we are certain that we have the
final dentry, so this patch moved the fh_compose() call to two places:
one for the case where the target already exists, and one after
dentry_create() where it was created. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix stale s2s_cp_stateids IDR entry for async COPY
For an async COPY, nfsd4_copy() called nfs4_init_copy_state() before
dup_copy_fields(), so the s2s_cp_stateids IDR was pointed at
&u->copy->cp_stateid -- memory in the per-rqstp COMPOUND buffer that is
reused by the next request. dup_copy_fields() copies only the value into
async_copy, so the IDR slot dangled at the transient buffer for the whole
background copy. Any IDR walker then dereferences reused request memory:
the laundromat reads cs_type from it and, if the bytes look like an
expired NFS4_COPYNOTIFY_STID, follows into
refcount_dec()/idr_remove()/kfree() on garbage; manage_cpntf_state() has
the same exposure via idr_find().
Duplicate the fields first, then register the stateid on the stable
async_copy. result->cb_stateid is unchanged. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix UAF in async copy cancel and shutdown
An async copy could be freed or used after free while a teardown caller
(OFFLOAD_CANCEL, nfsd4_shutdown_copy, nfsd4_cancel_copy_by_sb) raced the
copy kthread:
- find_async_copy() bumped copy->refcount but left the copy on
clp->async_copies, so the reaper's cleanup_async_copy() could run
release_copy_files() concurrently with a cancel/shutdown caller. Both
put and NULL nf_src/nf_dst without a common lock, double-putting the
nfsd_file and freeing it early.
- nfsd4_do_async_copy() set NFSD4_COPY_F_STOPPED before its final uses
of the copy (nfsd_update_cmtime_attr() on copy->nf_dst,
nfsd4_send_cb_offload()). nfsd4_stop_copy() treats a set STOPPED bit
as "kthread done, skip kthread_stop()", so a teardown caller ran
release_copy_files() -- which puts and NULLs nf_dst -- while the
kthread still dereferenced it (NULL/UAF).
- copy->copy_task was never pinned. The one-shot kthread self-reaps on
return, so kthread_stop()'s get_task_struct() could touch a freed
task_struct.
- co_cb is embedded in the copy, but nfsd4_send_cb_offload() held a
reference only on the client, so a concurrent teardown could free
the copy while the CB_OFFLOAD callback was in flight.
Fix the teardown lifetime as a whole:
- find_async_copy() unlinks the copy (clear cp_clp, list_del_init)
under async_lock; the cancel, shutdown, and sb-cancel paths drop the
list-membership reference via nfs4_put_copy() after nfsd4_stop_copy().
Drop the now-redundant list_del fixup from cleanup_async_copy().
- Because unlinking hides the copy from the reaper, its
cleanup_async_copy() can no longer remove the copy's s2s_cp_stateids
entry; the cancel/shutdown/sb-cancel paths now call
nfs4_free_copy_state() themselves (while cp_clp is still valid) so
the entry does not dangle at freed memory for the laundromat and
manage_cpntf_state() to dereference.
- Give the kthread its own reference, taken in nfsd4_copy() before
wake_up_process() and dropped at the end of nfsd4_do_async_copy();
call wake_up_process() before list_add().
- Pin the task_struct with get_task_struct() in nfsd4_copy(), released
in nfs4_put_copy(), so kthread_stop() is safe whenever the kthread
exits. Set NFSD4_COPY_F_STOPPED only in nfsd4_stop_copy(), which now
always kthread_stop()s before release_copy_files(); completion is
still reported via NFSD4_COPY_F_COMPLETED, so
nfsd4_has_active_async_copies() is unaffected. Each teardown caller
removes the copy from clp->async_copies first, so kthread_stop() runs
exactly once.
- Take a copy reference in nfsd4_send_cb_offload(), dropped in
nfsd4_cb_offload_release(). The kthread still holds its own reference
there, so the refcount_inc() cannot race the final free.
- Read cp_clp with smp_load_acquire() to pair with the unordered
set_bit()/clear_bit() writers (Documentation/atomic_bitops.rst). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: hold rcu across localio cmpxchg retry
nfsd_file objects are freed via call_rcu (filecache.c:296), and
nfsd_file_slab is created without SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU
(KMEM_CACHE(nfsd_file, 0) at filecache.c:789), so the slab page
backing a freed nfsd_file becomes freely reclaimable once the RCU
grace period elapses.
The again: retry block in nfsd_open_local_fh() loads a pointer with
cmpxchg and then calls nfsd_file_get(new) (which is
refcount_inc_not_zero) without holding rcu_read_lock. The sole caller
nfs_open_local_fh() drops rcu_read_lock before invoking this helper,
so no outer reader-side critical section covers the load.
CPU 0 (nfsd_open_local_fh) CPU 1 (nfsd_file_put_local)
----- -----
new = cmpxchg(pnf, NULL, ...)
nf = xchg(pnf, NULL)
nfsd_file_put(nf)
last ref -> call_rcu()
/* grace period elapses;
slab page recycled */
nfsd_file_get(new)
refcount_inc_not_zero(&new->nf_ref)
/* operates on recycled memory */
A non-zero word at the nf_ref offset of the recycled object makes the
refcount bump appear to succeed, and the caller then dereferences
new->nf_net and new->nf_file out of freed memory.
Fix by taking rcu_read_lock() immediately before the cmpxchg and
releasing it on all three exits of the if (new) block: the goto-again
retry, the lost-race cleanup path, and the install-succeeded path.
nfsd_file_put() and nfsd_net_put() stay outside the RCU section so
they remain free to block. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: move nfsd_debugfs_init() after nfsd4_init_slabs() in init_nfsd()
nfsd_debugfs_init() runs before nfsd4_init_slabs() in init_nfsd().
If the slab allocation fails, the bare "return retval" bypasses
nfsd_debugfs_exit(), leaving orphan debugfs files with stale fops
pointers into the freed module text.
Move nfsd_debugfs_init() to after the slab init succeeds, so the
early return has no debugfs state to clean up.
Since debugfs is now the more recently initialized of the two, also
update the unwind paths to match reverse-initialization (LIFO) order:
run nfsd_debugfs_exit() before nfsd4_free_slabs() in both the
init_nfsd() error path and exit_nfsd(). The nfsd debugfs files only
reference module-global state and have no dependency on the slab
caches, so that reordering is a cleanup with no functional change. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: Prevent client use-after-free during admin state revocation
A stateid holds only a bare pointer to its nfs4_client; a stateid
reference does not pin it. The client survives only because
__destroy_client() drains its stateids before free_client() runs.
nfsd4_revoke_states() drops nn->client_lock across revoke_one_stid(),
which dereferences the client to revoke a stateid and read
clp->cl_minorversion. A teardown racing the dropped lock can free
the client first.
Pinning cl_rpc_users under client_lock blocks the DESTROY_CLIENTID and
EXCHANGE_ID teardown, which refuses while cl_rpc_users is non-zero.
force_expire_client() ignores it: once its wait for cl_rpc_users to
reach zero has passed, a later pin goes unnoticed.
Under client_lock, skip a client whose cl_time is already zero --
force_expire_client() clears it there before waiting -- otherwise pin
cl_rpc_users before dropping the lock. The walk then either sees the
expiry and skips, or pins in time for that wait to cover the revoke. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: Prevent client use-after-free during delegation revoke
A delegation stateid holds only a bare pointer to its owning
nfs4_client and does not keep it alive. The client survives its
stateids only because __destroy_client() drains cl_delegations and
cl_revoked before free_client() runs.
nfs4_laundromat() breaks that invariant: it unhashes an
expired delegation from cl_delegations, drops deleg_lock, then
revoke_delegation() relinks it onto cl_revoked under cl_lock. In that
window the delegation is on neither list, so client_has_state() can
report no remaining state.
Every teardown path first requires cl_rpc_users to be zero, but
the laundromat holds no such reference. A client whose recalled
delegation has just timed out can therefore reach free_client()
while revoke_delegation() is still about to dereference cl_lock,
a use-after-free.
Pin the client with cl_rpc_users across the revoke so teardown blocks
until it completes, then reap the delegation from cl_revoked. A client
already expiring reaps its own, so skip it and leave the delegation on
del_recall_lru. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: Prevent client use-after-free during NFSv4.0 revoked-state cleanup
nfs40_clean_admin_revoked() takes a stateid reference under
clp->cl_lock, drops nn->client_lock, and calls
nfsd4_drop_revoked_stid(), which dereferences the stateid's client
through s->sc_client->cl_lock. The stateid reference does not pin the
client, so a teardown racing the dropped lock can free the client
while nfsd4_drop_revoked_stid() is still using it.
This cleanup runs from the laundromat, so a periodic sweep can race
force_expire_client() driven by a write to the clients/<id>/ctl file.
Skip a client that is already expiring and otherwise pin it with
cl_rpc_users under client_lock before dropping the lock, matching
nfsd4_revoke_states(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cifs: clear tcon after cifsFileInfo_put() in cifs_file_set_size()
When the else branch of cifs_file_set_size() finds a writable file handle
via find_writable_file(), it borrows tcon and server from the handle's
tlink, attempts the handle-based set_file_size() RPC, and then releases
the handle with cifsFileInfo_put().
If set_file_size() fails, execution falls through to the path-based
fallback, which reuses the borrowed tcon and server under the
"if (tcon == NULL)" guard. Since tcon is not NULL at that point, the
guard is skipped. If cifsFileInfo_put() dropped the last reference on a
tlink that was already removed from the tlink tree (TCON_LINK_IN_TREE
cleared, as happens during reconnection or session teardown),
cifs_put_tlink() will have freed tcon; the subsequent set_path_size()
call is then a use-after-free.
Setting tcon = NULL after cifsFileInfo_put() causes the existing guard
to take the cifs_sb_tlink() path, which acquires a fresh reference for
the path-based operation or fails cleanly if the session is gone. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix UAF and buffer leak in cifs_check_trans2() for malformed secondary T2
When a valid primary TRANSACT2 response has been received (mid->resp_buf
set, mid->multiRsp true) and a subsequent secondary response causes
cifs_check_trans2() to return false -- either because the SMB header is
invalid (malformed != 0) or because check2ndT2() rejects the PDU --
handle_mid() overwrites mid->resp_buf with the new buffer (leaking the
primary buffer) and, because mid->multiRsp is set, skips the
server->smallbuf/bigbuf NULL-out. When the user thread frees
mid->resp_buf, server->smallbuf or server->bigbuf is left dangling; the
demux thread reuses it for the next packet, resulting in a use-after-free.
Combine both early-exit conditions and, when mid->multiRsp is already
set, abort the pending transaction inline: set multiEnd, call
dequeue_mid() with malformed=true, and return true so handle_mid() exits
without touching mid->resp_buf or the server buffer pointers. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: only rebind the reopened file's own oplock on durable reconnect
ksmbd_reopen_durable_fd() walks the inode's m_op_list and rebinds every
detached oplock to the reconnecting session:
list_for_each_entry_rcu(op, &ci->m_op_list, op_entry,
lockdep_is_held(&ci->m_lock)) {
if (op->conn)
continue;
op->conn = ksmbd_conn_get(fp->conn);
op->sess = work->sess;
}
The only key is op->conn == NULL, which every detached durable handle on
that inode matches, not just the one owned by fp. When two sessions hold
durable handles on the same file and both disconnect, reconnecting one of
them adopts the other session's oplock: op->sess is overwritten with the
reconnecting session without taking a reference on it, while op->conn
pins the connection.
The sibling teardown path, session_fd_check(), keys on the identity of
the connection being torn down (op->conn == conn) rather than on shared
state, and so does not have this problem.
Once the adopting session is destroyed, ksmbd_session_destroy() frees it
while the foreign oplock still points at it. The reader in
ksmbd_close_fd_app_instance_id() validates only opinfo->conn, which is
still live thanks to the reference taken above, and then dereferences the
stale session:
if (!opinfo->conn) {
up_read(&fp->f_ci->m_lock);
goto out;
}
ft = &opinfo->sess->file_table;
write_lock(&ft->lock);

HID: universal-pidff: stop the device when force-feedback init fails
universal_pidff_probe() starts the device with hid_hw_start() and then, if
force-feedback initialisation fails, returns the error through a label that
only does "return error". The device is left started.
The HID core does not unwind on the driver's behalf. __hid_device_probe()
releases the devres group, closes the report and clears hdev->driver:
if (ret) {
devres_release_group(&hdev->dev, hdev->devres_group_id);
hid_close_report(hdev);
hdev->driver = NULL;
}
The hidraw character device that hid_hw_start() registered through
hid_connect() is allocated with kzalloc() and added with cdev_device_add(),
so it is not devres-managed and survives that. With hdev->driver NULL,
hid_device_remove() skips hid_hw_stop() as well, because it only unwinds
while a driver is still attached. The registration therefore outlives the
device on both paths.
Opening the surviving /dev/hidrawX writes into freed memory. KASAN reports
a use-after-free write from hidraw_open() -> hid_hw_open() -> the
transport's open callback, which takes a spinlock inside the freed object.
A descriptor that carries a PID usage page and no input reports is enough:
hidraw claims the device so hid_hw_start() succeeds, while hid->inputs
stays empty so force-feedback init fails. The other failure returns in
hid_pidff_init_with_quirks() - no output reports, an allocation failure,
pidff_init_fields(), pidff_check_autocenter(), an unusable effect count,
input_ff_create() - all reach the same label.
Stop the device on that path. hid-dr.c and hid-emsff.c, which start the
device with the same HID_CONNECT_DEFAULT & ~HID_CONNECT_FF mask, already do
this. The two earlier gotos must keep returning without hid_hw_stop(),
since neither has a started device, so give the path that fails after the
start its own label.
