Description
===========

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

usb: gadget: udc: bdc: free IRQ and drain func_wake_notify before teardown

The Broadcom BDC UDC driver registers its IRQ handler with
devm_request_irq() in bdc_udc_init(), so the IRQ is released by devm
only after bdc_remove() returns.  devm releases resources in reverse
LIFO order, but bdc_remove() runs bdc_udc_exit() and bdc_hw_exit() ->
bdc_mem_free() manually before returning: bdc_udc_exit() tears down
individual endpoint objects via bdc_free_ep(), while bdc_hw_exit() ->
bdc_mem_free() frees and NULLs the DMA-coherent status-report ring
(bdc->srr.sr_bds) and kfree()s bdc->bdc_ep_array.  Both happen while
the IRQ handler (bdc_udc_interrupt, requested with IRQF_SHARED)
remains deliverable in the window up to the post-remove devm
free_irq().

On receipt of a shared interrupt in that window, bdc_udc_interrupt()
dereferences bdc->srr.sr_bds[bdc->srr.dqp_index] (NULL or freed DMA)
and dispatches sr_handler callbacks that index into bdc_ep_array,
causing a NULL-deref or use-after-free.

The same window affects the delayed_work bdc->func_wake_notify, which is
armed from the IRQ handler via bdc_sr_uspc() -> handle_link_state_change()
-> schedule_delayed_work() and may self-rearm from its own callback
bdc_func_wake_timer().  No cancel exists anywhere in the driver, so a
queued work item that fires after bdc_remove() returns and the bdc
structure is devm-freed dereferences freed memory.

Replace devm_request_irq() with request_irq() and add an explicit
free_irq(bdc->irq, bdc) in bdc_remove().  Clear BDC_GIE before
free_irq() to stop the device from asserting interrupts, then
free_irq() drains any in-flight handler, then cancel_delayed_work_sync()
drains the func_wake_notify delayed work.  This ordering ensures the
IRQ handler and delayed work cannot interfere with the subsequent
endpoint and DMA teardown in bdc_udc_exit() and bdc_hw_exit().  Wire the
matching free_irq() into the bdc_udc_init() error path so the IRQ is
released on probe failure, and route the bdc_init_ep() failure through
err0 instead of returning directly.

This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2026-64583 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
