ALSA: pcm: prevent UAF in snd_pcm_info
commit 362bca57f5d78220f8b5907b875961af9436e229 upstream. When the device descriptor is closed, the `substream->runtime` pointer is freed. But another thread may be in the ioctl handler, case SNDRV_CTL_IOCTL_PCM_INFO. This case calls snd_pcm_info_user() which calls snd_pcm_info() which accesses the now freed `substream->runtime`. Note: this fixes CVE-2017-0861 Signed-off-by: Robb Glasser <rglasser@google.com> Signed-off-by: Nick Desaulniers <ndesaulniers@google.com> Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>
