CVE-2019-11811 (C, published 2019-05-07T14:29Z)
Description: value: An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.0.4. There is a use-after-free upon attempted read access to /proc/ioports after the ipmi_si module is removed, related to drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c, drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_mem_io.c, and drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_port_io.c.
Severity: MEDIUM (CVSS v3 base score: 7)
Weakness: CWE-416 \u2014 Use After Free
The product reuses or references memory after it has been freed. At some point afterward, the memory may be allocated again and saved in another pointer, while the original pointer references a location somewhere within the new allocation. Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory "belongs" to the code that operates on the new pointer.

Commit message: ipmi_si: fix use-after-free of resource->name

If io_setup is called successful in try_smi_init() but try_smi_init()
goes out_err before calling ipmi_register_smi(), so ipmi_unregister_smi()
will not be called while removing module. It leads to the resource that
allocated in io_setup() can not be freed, but the name(DEVICE_NAME) of
resource is freed while removing the module. It causes use-after-free
when cat /proc/ioports.

Fix this by calling io_cleanup() while try_smi_init() goes to out_err.
and don't call io_cleanup() until io_setup() returns successful to avoid
warning prints.

Vulnerable code:
	io->io_cleanup = mem_cleanup;

	io->io_cleanup = port_cleanup;


Fixed code:
	if (rv && new_smi->io.io_cleanup) {
		new_smi->io.io_cleanup(&new_smi->io);
		new_smi->io.io_cleanup = NULL;
	}


	io->io_cleanup = mem_cleanup;


	io->io_cleanup = port_cleanup;
