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

usb: usbfs: fix use-after-free of usb_device in usbdev_release()

usbdev_release() drops its reference to the struct usb_device before draining the list of completed async URBs, but that drain path reads back through the same object: free_async() calls dec_usb_memory_use_count() for any URB whose buffer came from the usbfs mmap() region, and its first statement is bus_to_hcd(ps->dev->bus).

After a disconnect the usbfs reference can be the last one, in which case usb_put_dev() frees the device and the subsequent loop reads offset 80 of freed memory and uses the result as a struct usb_hcd *, which hcd_buffer_free_pages() then dereferences.

This is reachable by an unprivileged process that has read/write access to a /dev/bus/usb node: mmap() the fd, submit one URB with a buffer inside the mapping, wait for the device to be unplugged, then munmap() and close(). It reproduces on every attempt rather than being a race, because a live MAP_SHARED vma holds a reference on the struct file, so usbdev_release() cannot run until the last vma is gone and the freeing branch of dec_usb_memory_use_count() is always taken.
