Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: virtio-blk: Avoid use-after-free on suspend/resume hctx->user_data is set to vq in virtblk_init_hctx(). However, vq is freed on suspend and reallocated on resume. So, hctx->user_data is invalid after resume, and it will cause use-after-free accessing which will result in the kernel crash something like below: [ 22.428391] Call Trace: [ 22.428899] <TASK> [ 22.429339] virtqueue_add_split+0x3eb/0x620 [ 22.430035] ? __blk_mq_alloc_requests+0x17f/0x2d0 [ 22.430789] ? kvm_clock_get_cycles+0x14/0x30 [ 22.431496] virtqueue_add_sgs+0xad/0xd0 [ 22.432108] virtblk_add_req+0xe8/0x150 [ 22.432692] virtio_queue_rqs+0xeb/0x210 [ 22.433330] blk_mq_flush_plug_list+0x1b8/0x280 [ 22.434059] __blk_flush_plug+
