      "title": "gpib: fix use-after-free in IO ioctl handlers",
      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ngpib: fix use-after-free in IO ioctl handlers\n\nThe IBRD, IBWRT, IBCMD, and IBWAIT ioctl handlers use a gpib_descriptor\npointer after board->big_gpib_mutex has been released.  A concurrent\nIBCLOSEDEV ioctl can free the descriptor via close_dev_ioctl() during\nthis window, causing a use-after-free.\n\nThe IO handlers (read_ioctl, write_ioctl, command_ioctl) explicitly\nrelease big_gpib_mutex before calling their handler.  wait_ioctl() is\ncalled with big_gpib_mutex held, but ibwait() releases it internally\nwhen wait_mask is non-zero.  In all four cases, the descriptor pointer\nobtained from handle_to_descriptor() becomes unprotected.\n\nFix this by introducing a kernel-only descriptor_busy reference count\nin struct gpib_descriptor.  Each handler atomically increments\ndescriptor_busy under file_priv->descriptors_mutex before releasing the\nlock, and decrements it when done.  close_dev_ioctl() checks\ndescriptor_busy under the same lock and rejects the close with -EBUSY\nif the count is non-zero.\n\nA reference count rather than a simple flag is necessary because\nmultiple handlers can operate on the same descriptor concurrently\n(e.g. IBRD and IBWAIT on the same handle from different threads).\n\nA separate counter is needed because io_in_progress can be cleared from\nunprivileged userspace via the IBWAIT ioctl (through general_ibstatus()\nwith set_mask containing CMPL), which would allow an attacker to bypass\na check based solely on io_in_progress.  The new descriptor_busy\ncounter is only modified by the kernel IO paths.\n\nThe lock ordering is consistent (big_gpib_mutex -> descriptors_mutex)\nand the handlers only hold descriptors_mutex briefly during the lookup,\nso there is no deadlock risk and no impact on IO throughput.",
