      <title>CVE-2023-53459 — HID: mcp-2221: prevent UAF in delayed work</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2023-53459</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;HID: mcp-2221: prevent UAF in delayed work&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If the device is plugged/unplugged without giving time for mcp_init_work()
to complete, we might kick in the devm free code path and thus have
unavailable struct mcp_2221 while in delayed work.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Canceling the delayed_work item is enough to solve the issue, because
cancel_delayed_work_sync will prevent the work item to requeue itself.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
