Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nvdimm: virtio_pmem: refcount requests for token lifetime KASAN reports slab-use-after-free in __wake_up_common(): BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in __wake_up_common+0x114/0x160 Read of size 8 at addr ffff88810fdcb710 by task swapper/0/0 CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 6.19.0-next-20260220-00006-g1eae5f204ec3 #4 PREEMPT(full) Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS Arch Linux 1.17.0-2-2 04/01/2014 Call Trace: <IRQ> dump_stack_lvl+0x6d/0xb0 print_report+0x170/0x4e2 ? pfxraw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x10/0x10 ? __virt_addr_valid+0x1dc/0x380 kasan_report+0xbc/0xf0 ? __wake_up_common+0x114/0x160 ? __wake_up_common+0x114/0x160 __wake_up_common+0x114/0x160 ? pfxraw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x10/0x10 __wake_up+0x36/0x60 virtio_pmem_host_ack+0x11d/0x3b0 ? sched_balance_domains+0x29f/0xb00 ? __pfx_virtio_pmem_host_ack+0x10/0x10 ? _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x98/0x100 ? pfxraw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x10/0x10 vring_interrupt+0x1c9/0x5e0 ? __pfx_vp_interrupt+0x10/0x10 vp_vring_interrupt+0x87/0x100 ? __pfx_vp_interrupt+0x10/0x10 __handle_irq_event_percpu+0x17f/0x550 ? pfxraw_spin_lock+0x10/0x10 handle_irq_event+0xab/0x1c0 handle_fasteoi_irq+0x276/0xae0 __common_interrupt+0x65/0x130 common_interrupt+0x78/0xa0 </IRQ> virtio_pmem_host_ack() wakes a request that has already been freed by the submitter. This happens when the request token is still reachable via the virtqueue, but virtio_pmem_flush() returns and frees it. Fix the token lifetime by refcounting struct virtio_pmem_request. virtio_pmem_flush() holds a submitter reference, and the virtqueue holds an extra reference once the request is queued. The completion path drops the virtqueue reference, and the submitter drops its reference before returning.
