[PATCH] nfc: pn533: Fix null-ptr-deref in pn533_recv_frame()

From: Yuxuan Hu

From: Yuxuan Hu <yuxuanhu@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Our fuzzing tool found a null-ptr-deref in function pn533_recv_frame
(/drivers/nfc/pn533/pn533.c) in kernel 6.8.

(1.1) When execute the NFC_CMD_START_POLL command via netlink, the
pn533_send_cmd_async function (/drivers/nfc/pn533/pn533.c: 1714) is
called, which sends the PN533_CMD_IN_AUTOPOLL command packet.

(2.1) If a pn533 response frame that does not match the command is
received, the following call sequence is executed:
pn533_recv_frame (/drivers/nfc/pn533/pn533.c: 2165)
pn533_rx_frame_is_cmd_response (/drivers/nfc/pn533/pn533.c: 2194)
pn533_wq_cmd_complete (/drivers/nfc/pn533/pn533.c: 2022)
pn533_send_async_complete (/drivers/nfc/pn533/pn533.c: 547)
pn533_autopoll_complete (/drivers/nfc/pn533/pn533.c: 414)

(2.2) After completing (2.1), dev->cmd is freed and set to null
(/drivers/nfc/pn533/pn533.c: 432-433).

(3.1) If another incorrect pn533 response frame is received during
the above process, (2.1) and (2.2) will be executed concurrently, and
the initial process setting dev->cmd to null causes the concurrent
process to trigger a null-ptr-deref in pn533_recv_frame.

Although pn533_recv_frame checks for dev->cmd at the beginning, it is
possible that dev->cmd is set to null after the check.

Through our verification, this concurrent vulnerability has a high
probability of occurrence and needs to be fixed.

Kernel print messages when null-ptr-deref is triggered (including PN533
packets, PN533 module errors, and KASAN reports) are as follows.
We added printk of the data packets, and printk before the relevant steps
in pn533_send_async_complete and pn533_recv_frame.
