Takashi Iwai e5c27c2ae2 media: dvb-usb: Fix use-after-free access
commit c49206786ee252f28b7d4d155d1fff96f145a05d upstream.

dvb_usb_device_init() copies the properties to the own data, so that
the callers can release the original properties later (as done in the
commit 299c7007e9 ("media: dw2102: Fix memleak on sequence of
probes")).  However, it also stores dev->desc pointer that is a
reference to the original properties data.  Since dev->desc is
referred later, it may result in use-after-free, in the worst case,
leading to a kernel Oops as reported.

This patch addresses the problem by allocating and copying the
properties at first, then get the desc from the copied properties.

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.

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.
