[PATCH 5.4 45/52] ALSA: pcm: Fix races among concurrent prealloc proc writes

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue May 10 2022 - 09:48:36 EST


From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx>

commit 69534c48ba8ce552ce383b3dfdb271ffe51820c3 upstream.

We have no protection against concurrent PCM buffer preallocation
changes via proc files, and it may potentially lead to UAF or some
weird problem. This patch applies the PCM open_mutex to the proc
write operation for avoiding the racy proc writes and the PCM stream
open (and further operations).
