Subject[PATCH 4.19 061/118] ALSA: usb-audio: Fix UAF decrement if card has no live interfaces in card.c
Date
4.19-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hui Peng <benquike@gmail.com>

commit 5f8cf712582617d523120df67d392059eaf2fc4b upstream.

If a USB sound card reports 0 interfaces, an error condition is triggered
and the function usb_audio_probe errors out. In the error path, there was a
use-after-free vulnerability where the memory object of the card was first
freed, followed by a decrement of the number of active chips. Moving the
decrement above the atomic_dec fixes the UAF.

[ The original problem was introduced in 3.1 kernel, while it was
developed in a different form. The Fixes tag below indicates the
original commit but it doesn't mean that the patch is applicable
cleanly. -- tiwai ]
