Hi Yang,

Nice!

Do you plan to upstream your cec descriptions to syzkaller? That would
be useful.

This crash is caused by ` list_add_tail(&entry->list, &fh->msgs);` (https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.7-rc7/source/drivers/media/cec/core/cec-adap.c#L224), which reads a variable freed by `kfree(fh);` (https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.7-rc7/source/drivers/media/cec/core/cec-api.c#L684). The reproducible program is a Syzkaller program, which can be executed following this document: https://github.com/google/syzkaller/blob/master/docs/executing_syzkaller_programs.md.

We attached the report and log for this bug. It tries freeing an active object by using `kfree(data);` (https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.7-rc7/source/drivers/media/cec/core/cec-adap.c#L930).

Unfortunately, we also don't have the reproducible program for this bug, but we attach the report and log.

It seems that the address of cec_adapter is totally wrong. We do not have a reproducible program for this bug, but the log and report for it are attached.
