From 27e5ab9cfb34a9491599c1cc7785755b2c5cb512 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johan Hovold Date: Mon, 5 Jan 2015 16:04:13 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] USB: console: fix potential use after free commit 32a4bf2e81ec378e5925d4e069e0677a6c86a6ad upstream. Use tty kref to release the fake tty in usb_console_setup to avoid use after free if the underlying serial driver has acquired a reference. Note that using the tty destructor release_one_tty requires some more state to be initialised.
