Hello,

We observed a crash "KASAN: use-after-free Read in cfusbl_device_notify" during fuzzing.

This is a known problem.

Some drivers do not like NETDEV_UNREGISTER being delivered multiple times.

Make sure in your fuzzing to have NET_DEV_REFCNT_TRACKER=y

Thanks.

Our config already have CONFIG_NET_DEV_REFCNT_TRACKER=y.

Are you also setting netdev_unregister_timeout_secs to a smaller value ?

netdev_unregister_timeout_secs
------------------------------

Unregister network device timeout in seconds.
This option controls the timeout (in seconds) used to issue a warning while
waiting for a network device refcount to drop to 0 during device
unregistration. A lower value may be useful during bisection to detect
a leaked reference faster. A larger value may be useful to prevent false
warnings on slow/loaded systems.
Default value is 10, minimum 1, maximum 3600.

Anyway, this UAF report seems not interesting.

Thank you for your quick reply.


Best regards,
Dae R. Jeong.
