From: Armin Wolf <W_Armin@gmx.de> stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.201 commit d426a2955e45a95b2282764105fcfb110a540453 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/I9RFHT CVE: CVE-2023-52864 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=... -------------------------------- [ Upstream commit eba9ac7abab91c8f6d351460239108bef5e7a0b6 ] Since commit fa1f68db6ca7 ("drivers: misc: pass miscdevice pointer via file private data"), the miscdevice stores a pointer to itself inside filp->private_data, which means that private_data will not be NULL when wmi_char_open() is called. This might cause memory corruption should wmi_char_open() be unable to find its driver, something which can happen when the associated WMI device is deleted in wmi_free_devices(). Fix the problem by using the miscdevice pointer to retrieve the WMI device data associated with a char device using container_of(). This also avoids wmi_char_open() picking a wrong WMI device bound to a driver with the same name as the original driver.
