stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.94 commit c33f0f22bfea375bf96d0b43a3242fa8a31f10c6 bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I531X9
Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=...
--------------------------------
[ Upstream commit 348df8035301dd212e3cc2860efe4c86cb0d3303 ]
In hexium_attach(dev, info), saa7146_vv_init() is called to allocate a new memory for dev->vv_data. In hexium_detach(), saa7146_vv_release() will be called and there is a dereference of dev->vv_data in saa7146_vv_release(), which could lead to a NULL pointer dereference on failure of saa7146_vv_init() according to the following logic.
Both hexium_attach() and hexium_detach() are callback functions of the variable 'extension', so there exists a possible call chain directly from hexium_attach() to hexium_detach():
hexium_attach(dev, info) -- fail to alloc memory to dev->vv_data | in saa7146_vv_init(). | | hexium_detach() -- a dereference of dev->vv_data in saa7146_vv_release()
Fix this bug by adding a check of saa7146_vv_init().
This bug was found by a static analyzer. The analysis employs differential checking to identify inconsistent security operations (e.g., checks or kfrees) between two code paths and confirms that the inconsistent operations are not recovered in the current function or the callers, so they constitute bugs.
Note that, as a bug found by static analysis, it can be a false positive or hard to trigger. Multiple researchers have cross-reviewed the bug.
Builds with CONFIG_VIDEO_HEXIUM_ORION=m show no new warnings, and our static analyzer no longer warns about this code.
