{"id":"AZL-72568","summary":"CVE-2025-68282 affecting package kernel for versions less than 6.6.119.3-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nusb: gadget: udc: fix use-after-free in usb_gadget_state_work\n\nA race condition during gadget teardown can lead to a use-after-free\nin usb_gadget_state_work(), as reported by KASAN:\n\n  BUG: KASAN: invalid-access in sysfs_notify+0x2c/0xd0\n  Workqueue: events usb_gadget_state_work\n\nThe fundamental race occurs because a concurrent event (e.g., an\ninterrupt) can call usb_gadget_set_state() and schedule gadget-\u003ework\nat any time during the cleanup process in usb_del_gadget().\n\nCommit 399a45e5237c (\"usb: gadget: core: flush gadget workqueue after\ndevice removal\") attempted to fix this by moving flush_work() to after\ndevice_del(). However, this does not fully solve the race, as a new\nwork item can still be scheduled *after* flush_work() completes but\nbefore the gadget's memory is freed, leading to the same use-after-free.\n\nThis patch fixes the race condition robustly by introducing a 'teardown'\nflag and a 'state_lock' spinlock to the usb_gadget struct. The flag is\nset during cleanup in usb_del_gadget() *before* calling flush_work() to\nprevent any new work from being scheduled once cleanup has commenced.\nThe scheduling site, usb_gadget_set_state(), now checks this flag under\nthe lock before queueing the work, thus safely closing the race window.","modified":"2026-04-01T05:22:34.578699Z","published":"2025-12-16T16:16:06Z","upstream":["CVE-2025-68282"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-68282"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kernel","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/kernel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"6.6.119.3-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-72568.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5"}
