Subject: [PATCH] binder: fix possible UAF when freeing buffer
Date: Wed, 12 Jun 2019 13:29:27 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190612202927.54518-1-tkjos@google.com> (raw)

There is a race between the binder driver cleaning
up a completed transaction via binder_free_transaction()
and a user calling binder_ioctl(BC_FREE_BUFFER) to
release a buffer. It doesn't matter which is first but
they need to be protected against running concurrently
which can result in a UAF.
