Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: f_fs: Fix DMA fence leak
In ffs_dmabuf_transfer(), a ffs_dma_fence object is kmalloc'd, with the
underlying dma_fence later initialized by dma_fence_init(), which sets
its kref counter to 1. Then, dma_resv_add_fence() gets a second
reference, and a pointer to the ffs_dma_fence is passed as the
usb_request's "context" field.
The dma-resv mechanism will manage the second reference, but the first
reference is never properly released; the ffs_dmabuf_cleanup() function
decreases the reference count, but only to balance with the reference
grab in ffs_dmabuf_signal_done().
The code will then slowly leak memory as more ffs_dma_fence objects are
created without being ever freed.
Address this issue by transferring ownership of the fence to the DMA
reservation object, by calling dma_fence_put() right after
dma_resv_add_fence(). The ffs_dma_fence then gets properly discarded
after being signalled.
