      <title>CVE-2025-39996 — media: b2c2: Fix use-after-free causing by irq_check_work in flexcop_pci_remove</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2025-39996</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;media: b2c2: Fix use-after-free causing by irq_check_work in flexcop_pci_remove&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The original code uses cancel_delayed_work() in flexcop_pci_remove(), which
does not guarantee that the delayed work item irq_check_work has fully
completed if it was already running. This leads to use-after-free scenarios
where flexcop_pci_remove() may free the flexcop_device while irq_check_work
is still active and attempts to dereference the device.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A typical race condition is illustrated below:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;CPU 0 (remove)                         | CPU 1 (delayed work callback)
flexcop_pci_remove()                   | flexcop_pci_irq_check_work()
  cancel_delayed_work()                |
  flexcop_device_kfree(fc_pci-&amp;gt;fc_dev) |
                                       |   fc = fc_pci-&amp;gt;fc_dev; // UAF&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is confirmed by a KASAN report:&lt;/p&gt;
