Takashi Iwai b85472244b ALSA: timer: Fix incorrectly assigned timer instance
commit e7af6307a8a54f0b873960b32b6a644f2d0fbd97 upstream.

The clean up commit 41672c0c24a6 ("ALSA: timer: Simplify error path in
snd_timer_open()") unified the error handling code paths with the
standard goto, but it introduced a subtle bug: the timer instance is
stored in snd_timer_open() incorrectly even if it returns an error.
This may eventually lead to UAF, as spotted by fuzzer.

The culprit is the snd_timer_open() code checks the
SNDRV_TIMER_IFLG_EXCLUSIVE flag with the common variable timeri.
This variable is supposed to be the newly created instance, but we
(ab-)used it for a temporary check before the actual creation of a
timer instance.  After that point, there is another check for the max
number of instances, and it bails out if over the threshold.  Before
the refactoring above, it worked fine because the code returned
directly from that point.  After the refactoring, however, it jumps to
the unified error path that stores the timeri variable in return --
even if it returns an error.  Unfortunately this stored value is kept
in the caller side (snd_timer_user_tselect()) in tu->timeri.  This
causes inconsistency later, as if the timer was successfully
assigned.

In this patch, we fix it by not re-using timeri variable but a
temporary variable for testing the exclusive connection, so timeri
remains NULL at that point.

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.
