[PATCH 3.12 115/142] USB: fix linked-list corruption in rh_call_control()

From: Jiri Slaby
Date: Mon Apr 10 2017 - 11:40:30 EST


From: Alan Stern <stern@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

commit 1633682053a7ee8058e10c76722b9b28e97fb73f upstream.

Using KASAN, Dmitry found a bug in the rh_call_control() routine: If
buffer allocation fails, the routine returns immediately without
unlinking its URB from the control endpoint, eventually leading to
linked-list corruption.

This patch fixes the problem by jumping to the end of the routine
(where the URB is unlinked) when an allocation failure occurs.
