CVE-2026-64491 Details
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ALSA: usx2y: us144mkii: fix work UAF on disconnect tascam_disconnect() cancels capture_work and midi_in_work before usb_kill_anchored_urbs() kills the capture/MIDI-in URBs. Those URBs self-resubmit, and their completion handlers reschedule the work. A URB that completes in the small window between cancel_work_sync() and usb_kill_anchored_urbs() therefore re-arms the work after its only cancel. Nothing cancels it again before snd_card_free() frees the card-private tascam structure, so the work handler then runs on freed memory. Kill the anchored URBs before cancelling the work; once the work is cancelled no remaining URB can complete to re-arm it.
A use-after-free vulnerability has been addressed in the Linux kernel's ALSA usx2y us144mkii driver. The issue arises in the 'tascam_disconnect' function, where the cancellation of work related to audio capture and MIDI input is not properly synchronized with the termination of USB request blocks (URBs). This mismanagement allows a URB to complete and re-initiate work after it has been canceled, leading to the execution of a work handler on freed memory. The vulnerability has been fixed by ensuring that URBs are halted before canceling the associated work, preventing any late URB completions from reactivating work that would run after the memory has been freed.
