CVE-2025-71162

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

dmaengine: tegra-adma: Fix use-after-free

A use-after-free bug exists in the Tegra ADMA driver when audio streams
are terminated, particularly during XRUN conditions. The issue occurs
when the DMA buffer is freed by tegra_adma_terminate_all() before the
vchan completion tasklet finishes accessing it.

The race condition follows this sequence:

  1. DMA transfer completes, triggering an interrupt that schedules the
     completion tasklet (tasklet has not executed yet)
  2. Audio playback stops, calling tegra_adma_terminate_all() which
     frees the DMA buffer memory via kfree()
  3. The scheduled tasklet finally executes, calling vchan_complete()
     which attempts to access the already-freed memory

Since tasklets can execute at any time after being scheduled, there is
no guarantee that the buffer will remain valid when vchan_complete()
runs.

Fix this by properly synchronizing the virtual channel completion:
 - Calling vchan_terminate_vdesc() in tegra_adma_stop() to mark the
   descriptors as terminated instead of freeing the descriptor.
 - Add the callback tegra_adma_synchronize() that calls
   vchan_synchronize() which kills any pending tasklets and frees any
   terminated descriptors.

CWE-416 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 Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory "belongs" to the code that operates on the new pointer.
