From be3e7b176c28cb919f81c3fa2ff63148be7a74e5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johan Hovold Date: Wed, 4 Oct 2017 11:01:13 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] USB: serial: console: fix use-after-free after failed setup commit 299d7572e46f98534033a9e65973f13ad1ce9047 upstream. Make sure to reset the USB-console port pointer when console setup fails in order to avoid having the struct usb_serial be prematurely freed by the console code when the device is later disconnected.
