      <title>CVE-2025-68282 — usb: gadget: udc: fix use-after-free in usb_gadget_state_work</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2025-68282</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;usb: gadget: udc: fix use-after-free in usb_gadget_state_work&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A race condition during gadget teardown can lead to a use-after-free
in usb_gadget_state_work(), as reported by KASAN:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;BUG: KASAN: invalid-access in sysfs_notify+0x2c/0xd0
  Workqueue: events usb_gadget_state_work&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The fundamental race occurs because a concurrent event (e.g., an
interrupt) can call usb_gadget_set_state() and schedule gadget-&amp;gt;work
at any time during the cleanup process in usb_del_gadget().&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Commit 399a45e5237c (&amp;#34;usb: gadget: core: flush gadget workqueue after
device removal&amp;#34;) attempted to fix this by moving flush_work() to after
device_del(). However, this does not fully solve the race, as a new
work item can still be scheduled *after* flush_work() completes but
before the gadget&amp;#39;s memory is freed, leading to the same use-after-free.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This patch fixes the race condition robustly by introducing a &amp;#39;teardown&amp;#39;
flag and a &amp;#39;state_lock&amp;#39; spinlock to the usb_gadget struct. The flag is
set during cleanup in usb_del_gadget() *before* calling flush_work() to
prevent any new work from being scheduled once cleanup has commenced.
The scheduling site, usb_gadget_set_state(), now checks this flag under
the lock before queueing the work, thus safely closing the race window.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
