From: Siddh Raman Pant <code@siddh.me> stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.142 commit 4abc8c07a065ecf771827bde3c63fbbe4aa0c08b category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I6CSFH Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=... -------------------------------- commit 60deb9f10eec5c6a20252ed36238b55d8b614a2c upstream. ieee80211_scan_rx() tries to access scan_req->flags after a null check, but a UAF is observed when the scan is completed and __ieee80211_scan_completed() executes, which then calls cfg80211_scan_done() leading to the freeing of scan_req. Since scan_req is rcu_dereference()'d, prevent the racing in __ieee80211_scan_completed() by ensuring that from mac80211's POV it is no longer accessed from an RCU read critical section before we call cfg80211_scan_done().
