Subject: CVE-2022-50245: rapidio: fix possible UAF when kfifo_alloc() fails

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...nel.org>

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

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

rapidio: fix possible UAF when kfifo_alloc() fails

If kfifo_alloc() fails in mport_cdev_open(), goto err_fifo and just free
priv. But priv is still in the chdev->file_list, then list traversal
may cause UAF. This fixes the following smatch warning:

drivers/rapidio/devices/rio_mport_cdev.c:1930 mport_cdev_open() warn: '&priv->list' not removed from list

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2022-50245 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:
