Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-12-30 15:30 – Updated: 2026-08-04 12:34

Details

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

ALSA: ymfpci: Create card with device-managed snd_devm_card_new()

snd_card_ymfpci_remove() was removed in commit c6e6bb5eab74 ("ALSA: ymfpci: Allocate resources with device-managed APIs"), but the call to snd_card_new() was not replaced with snd_devm_card_new().

Since there was no longer a call to snd_card_free, unloading the module would eventually result in Oops:

Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ALSA: ymfpci: Create card with device-managed snd_devm_card_new() snd_card_ymfpci_remove() was removed in commit c6e6bb5eab74 ("ALSA: ymfpci: Allocate resources with device-managed APIs"), but the call to snd_card_new() was not replaced with snd_devm_card_new(). Since there was no longer a call to snd_card_free, unloading the module would eventually result in Oops: [697561.532887] BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffc0924480 [697561.532893] #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode [697561.532896] #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page [697561.532899] PGD ae1e15067 P4D ae1e15067 PUD ae1e17067 PMD 11a8f5067 PTE 0 [697561.532905] Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP NOPTI [697561.532909] CPU: 21 PID: 5080 Comm: wireplumber Tainted: G W OE 6.2.7 #1 [697561.532914] Hardware name: System manufacturer System Product Name/TUF GAMING X570-PLUS, BIOS 4408 10/28/2022 [697561.532916] RIP: 0010:try_module_get.part.0+0x1a/0xe0 [697561.532924] Code: 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 0f 1f 44 00 00 55 48 89 e5 41 55 41 54 49 89 fc bf 01 00 00 00 e8 56 3c f8 ff <41> 83 3c 24 02 0f 84 96 00 00 00 41 8b 84 24 30 03 00 00 85 c0 0f [697561.532927] RSP: 0018:ffffbe9b858c3bd8 EFLAGS: 00010246 [697561.532930] RAX: ffff9815d14f1900 RBX: ffff9815c14e6000 RCX: 0000000000000000 [697561.532933] RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: ffffffffc055092c RDI: ffffffffb3778c1a [697561.532935] RBP: ffffbe9b858c3be8 R08: 0000000000000040 R09: ffff981a1a741380 [697561.532937] R10: ffffbe9b858c3c80 R11: 00000009d56533a6 R12: ffffffffc0924480 [697561.532939] R13: ffff9823439d8500 R14: 0000000000000025 R15: ffff9815cd109f80 [697561.532942] FS: 00007f13084f1f80(0000) GS:ffff9824aef40000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 [697561.532945] CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 [697561.532947] CR2: ffffffffc0924480 CR3: 0000000145344000 CR4: 0000000000350ee0 [697561.532949] Call Trace: [697561.532951] <TASK> [697561.532955] try_module_get+0x13/0x30 [697561.532960] snd_ctl_open+0x61/0x1c0 [snd] [697561.532976] snd_open+0xb4/0x1e0 [snd] [697561.532989] chrdev_open+0xc7/0x240 [697561.532995] ? fsnotify_perm.part.0+0x6e/0x160 [697561.533000] ? __pfx_chrdev_open+0x10/0x10 [697561.533005] do_dentry_open+0x169/0x440 [697561.533009] vfs_open+0x2d/0x40 [697561.533012] path_openat+0xa9d/0x10d0 [697561.533017] ? debug_smp_processor_id+0x17/0x20 [697561.533022] ? trigger_load_balance+0x65/0x370 [697561.533026] do_filp_open+0xb2/0x160 [697561.533032] ? _raw_spin_unlock+0x19/0x40 [697561.533036] ? alloc_fd+0xa9/0x190 [697561.533040] do_sys_openat2+0x9f/0x160 [697561.533044] __x64_sys_openat+0x55/0x90 [697561.533048] do_syscall_64+0x3b/0x90 [697561.533052] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x72/0xdc [697561.533056] RIP: 0033:0x7f1308a40db4 [697561.533059] Code: 24 20 eb 8f 66 90 44 89 54 24 0c e8 46 68 f8 ff 44 8b 54 24 0c 44 89 e2 48 89 ee 41 89 c0 bf 9c ff ff ff b8 01 01 00 00 0f 05 <48> 3d 00 f0 ff ff 77 32 44 89 c7 89 44 24 0c e8 78 68 f8 ff 8b 44 [697561.533062] RSP: 002b:00007ffcce664450 EFLAGS: 00000293 ORIG_RAX: 0000000000000101 [697561.533066] RAX: ffffffffffffffda RBX: 0000000000000003 RCX: 00007f1308a40db4 [697561.533068] RDX: 0000000000080000 RSI: 00007ffcce664690 RDI: 00000000ffffff9c [697561.533070] RBP: 00007ffcce664690 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000012 [697561.533072] R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000293 R12: 0000000000080000 [697561.533074] R13: 00007f13054b069b R14: 0000565209f83200 R15: 0000000000000000 [697561.533078] </TASK>

No network or adjacent-network input is involved.\nAC:L - There is no race to win and no memory-layout precondition: once the driver detaches, the card, its minors and its dangling module/iomap/DMA pointers persist indefinitely, so a single open() deterministically hits the freed module struct. The reporter hit it accidentally with an ordinary userspace audio daemon.\nPR:L - The fatal use-after-free is performed by whoever opens /dev/snd/controlC0, which any unprivileged user in the audio group or holding the standard udev/logind ACL can do (pipewire/wireplumber do it automatically). Only the setup step (module unload/unbind) is administrative; no privilege is needed to perform the dereference itself.\nUI:N - Exploitation requires only the attacker\u0027s own open() syscall on the leftover device node; no victim action, file, or mount is needed. In the reported case the crash occurred with no interactive user involvement at all.\nS:U - The corruption and the crash are entirely within the kernel\u0027s own security authority, with no crossing of a VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary. This is a standard in-kernel memory-safety defect.\nC:H - This is a use-after-free: try_module_get() reads the freed and potentially reallocated module structure, and the chip\u0027s still-enabled DSP keeps DMAing into pages already returned to the page allocator, exposing recycled kernel memory contents through the still-live PCM/control interfaces. Per UAF guidance this is High.\nI:H - try_module_get() performs atomic_inc_not_zero() into freed module memory, and, because snd_ymfpci_free() never runs, the hardware continues DMA-writing into DMA pages that devres already released back to the allocator \u2014 arbitrary corruption of reallocated kernel memory that is leverageable beyond a mere crash.\nA:H - The commit message documents a reproducible kernel Oops (page fault in try_module_get from snd_ctl_open) on any open of the leftover control device, and the orphaned shared IRQ plus ongoing DMA add further instability. Any kernel oops or panic is High."

Detection rules are retrieved from Rulezet.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
