CVE-2026-74575CVE-2026-74575
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
thunderbolt: Prevent XDomain delayed work use-after-free on disconnect
tb_xdp_handle_request() runs on system_wq and queues
xd->state_work via queue_delayed_work() in three request handlers:
PROPERTIES_CHANGED_REQUEST, UUID_REQUEST (via start_handshake),
and LINK_STATE_CHANGE_REQUEST. Similarly, update_xdomain() queues
xd->properties_changed_work when local properties change.
Concurrently, tb_xdomain_remove() calls stop_handshake() which does
cancel_delayed_work_sync() on both delayed works. Later,
tb_xdomain_unregister() calls device_unregister() which eventually
frees the xdomain. Since commit 559c1e1e0134 ("thunderbolt: Run
tb_xdp_handle_request() in system workqueue") moved the request
handler off tb->wq, the handler and the remove path are no longer
serialized. If queue_delayed_work() executes after
cancel_delayed_work_sync() but before the xdomain is freed, the
delayed work fires on a freed object.
