[PATCH 4/4] misc: fastrpc: fix use-after-free race in fastrpc_map_create
From: srini
Date: Sat May 30 2026 - 16:51:18 EST
From: Zhenghang Xiao <kipreyyy@xxxxxxxxx>
fastrpc_map_lookup returns a raw pointer after releasing fl->lock. The
caller fastrpc_map_create then calls fastrpc_map_get (kref_get_unless_zero)
on this unprotected pointer. A concurrent MEM_UNMAP can free the map
between the lock release and the kref operation, resulting in a
use-after-free on the freed slab object.
Restore the take_ref parameter to fastrpc_map_lookup so the reference
is acquired atomically under fl->lock before the pointer is exposed to
the caller.
Fixes: 10df039834f8 ("misc: fastrpc: Skip reference for DMA handles")
