NFC: NULL out the dev->rfkill to prevent UAF (CVE-2022-49505)

Summary

NFC: NULL out the dev->rfkill to prevent UAF

Original description

The description as published by the source.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

NFC: NULL out the dev->rfkill to prevent UAF

Commit 3e3b5dfcd16a ("NFC: reorder the logic in nfc_{un,}register_device")
assumes the device_is_registered() in function nfc_dev_up() will help
to check when the rfkill is unregistered. However, this check only
take effect when device_del(&dev->dev) is done in nfc_unregister_device().
Hence, the rfkill object is still possible be dereferenced.

The crash trace in latest kernel (5.18-rc2):
