[PATCH 1/1] HID: wacom: serialize mode changes with device removal

flat view
COLD20d

From: Jinmo Yang <hidden>
Date: 2026-10-04 11:15:35
Also in: lkml, stable
Subsystem: hid core layer, hid wacom driver, the rest · Maintainers: Jiri Kosina, Benjamin Tissoires, Ping Cheng, Jason Gerecke, Linus Torvalds

wacom_mode_change_work() takes both siblings' struct wacom out of
wacom_shared and tears down and rebuilds them, holding no reference to
either. wacom_remove() cancels only the work owned by the device being
removed, so a worker owned by the other sibling keeps using this device
after its remove callback returns, and hid_device_remove() then frees
struct wacom along with the driver's devres group.

Reproduced under KASAN on hid.git master (fe2ec83746e5) with a uhid
reproducer that binds a sibling pair, sends a mode-change report and then
closes one sibling's descriptor, 10 boots out of 10:

  BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in wacom_parse_and_register+0x4fa8/0x58e0
  Read of size 8 at addr ffff88800be431f8 by task kworker/0:2/75
  Workqueue: events wacom_mode_change_work
   wacom_parse_and_register+0x4fa8/0x58e0
   wacom_mode_change_work+0x333/0x7e0
   process_one_work+0xa3b/0x19b0
  Allocated by task 11:  devm_kmalloc <- wacom_probe
  Freed by task 82:      devres_release_group <- hid_device_remove,
                         under uhid_char_release <- __x64_sys_close

The same object is also written: wacom_feature_mapping() stores
features->touch_max into it, four bytes at a fixed offset, with the value
taken from a feature report. Closing one sibling's /dev/uhid descriptor is
all it takes, with no privilege, and a reference on the hid_device would
not help: struct wacom is devm_kzalloc() on &hdev->dev.

Serialize mode-change workers with wacom_remove() using a driver-wide
mutex, cancelling the device's own work first so that a worker blocked on
the mutex cannot deadlock removal. wacom_add_shared_data() registers its
devres action inside the group wacom_parse_and_register() opens, so
wacom_remove() clears this device's shared pen or touch pointer under the
mutex and no later worker can pick it up.

The worker also snapshots both shared pointers and returns on a NULL
wacom_wac.shared, because releasing the first sibling's devres can drop
the last reference to the shared data.
