[PATCH] usb: mon: make mmapped memory read only
From: Tadeusz Struk
Date: Fri Sep 16 2022 - 18:48:00 EST
Syzbot found an issue in usbmon where it can corrupt monitor
internal memory causing the usbmon to crash with segfault,
UAF, etc. The reproducer mmaps the /dev/usbmon memory to userspace
and overwrites it with arbitrary data, which causes the issues.
To prevent that explicitly clear the VM_WRITE flag in mon_bin_mmap().
