commit c85400f886 upstream.
The function r8a66597_endpoint_disable() and r8a66597_urb_enqueue() may
be concurrently executed.
The two functions both access a possible shared variable "hep->hcpriv".
This shared variable is freed by r8a66597_endpoint_disable() via the
call path:
r8a66597_endpoint_disable
kfree(hep->hcpriv) (line 1995 in Linux-4.19)
This variable is read by r8a66597_urb_enqueue() via the call path:
r8a66597_urb_enqueue
spin_lock_irqsave(&r8a66597->lock)
init_pipe_info
enable_r8a66597_pipe
pipe = hep->hcpriv (line 802 in Linux-4.19)
The read operation is protected by a spinlock, but the free operation
is not protected by this spinlock, thus a concurrency use-after-free bug
may occur.
To fix this bug, the spin-lock and spin-unlock function calls in
r8a66597_endpoint_disable() are moved to protect the free operation.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
