      <title>CVE-2021-47169 — serial: rp2: use 'request_firmware' instead of 'request_firmware_nowait'</title>
      <link>https://cve.radiocsirt.org/vuln/cve-2021-47169</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;serial: rp2: use &amp;#39;request_firmware&amp;#39; instead of &amp;#39;request_firmware_nowait&amp;#39;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In &amp;#39;rp2_probe&amp;#39;, the driver registers &amp;#39;rp2_uart_interrupt&amp;#39; then calls
&amp;#39;rp2_fw_cb&amp;#39; through &amp;#39;request_firmware_nowait&amp;#39;. In &amp;#39;rp2_fw_cb&amp;#39;, if the
firmware don&amp;#39;t exists, function just return without initializing ports
of &amp;#39;rp2_card&amp;#39;. But now the interrupt handler function has been
registered, and when an interrupt comes, &amp;#39;rp2_uart_interrupt&amp;#39; may access
those ports then causing NULL pointer dereference or other bugs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Because the driver does some initialization work in &amp;#39;rp2_fw_cb&amp;#39;, in
order to make the driver ready to handle interrupts, &amp;#39;request_firmware&amp;#39;
should be used instead of asynchronous &amp;#39;request_firmware_nowait&amp;#39;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This report reveals it:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;INFO: trying to register non-static key.
the code is fine but needs lockdep annotation.
