H A Dcapsule-loader.cdiff 9cb636b5f6a8cc6d1b50809ec8f8d33ae0c84c95 Wed Sep 07 11:07:14 CDT 2022 Hyunwoo Kim <imv4bel@gmail.com> efi: capsule-loader: Fix use-after-free in efi_capsule_write

A race condition may occur if the user calls close() on another thread
during a write() operation on the device node of the efi capsule.

This is a race condition that occurs between the efi_capsule_write() and
efi_capsule_flush() functions of efi_capsule_fops, which ultimately
results in UAF.

So, the page freeing process is modified to be done in
efi_capsule_release() instead of efi_capsule_flush().
