NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libperf package and not the libperf package as distributed by Centos.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

serial: core: do fallible allocations before the console can be registered

serial_core_add_one_port() allocates uport->tty_groups after uart_configure_port(), which may register the console. If the allocation fails, the driver unwinds the port while its console remains registered. The earlier uport->name allocation has a related failure path that leaves state->uart_port linked to a port being freed.

Failslab reproduced a NULL dereference in PL011 console output and a KASAN use-after-free in i.MX console output after failed binds.

Allocate the name and tty_groups before linking the port and configuring it. Reserve space for the optional driver attribute group because config_port() may populate uport->attr_group during configuration.
