The dquot_mark_dquot_dirty() using dquot references from the inode should be protected by dquot_srcu. quota_off code takes care to call synchronize_srcu(&dquot_srcu) to not drop dquot references while they are used by other users. But dquot_transfer() breaks this assumption. We call dquot_transfer() to drop the last reference of dquot and add it to free_dquots, but there may still be other users using the dquot at this time, as shown in the function graph below: cpu1 cpu2 _________________|_________________ wb_do_writeback CHOWN(1) ... ext4_da_update_reserve_space dquot_claim_block ... dquot_mark_dquot_dirty // try to dirty old quota test_bit(DQ_ACTIVE_B, &dquot->dq_flags) // still ACTIVE if (test_bit(DQ_MOD_B, &dquot->dq_flags)) // test no dirty, wait dq_list_lock ... dquot_transfer __dquot_transfer dqput_all(transfer_from) // rls old dquot dqput // last dqput dquot_release clear_bit(DQ_ACTIVE_B, &dquot->dq_flags) atomic_dec(&dquot->dq_count) put_dquot_last(dquot) list_add_tail(&dquot->dq_free, &free_dquots) // add the dquot to free_dquots if (!test_and_set_bit(DQ_MOD_B, &dquot->dq_flags)) add dqi_dirty_list // add released dquot to dirty_list This can cause various issues, such as dquot being destroyed by dqcache_shrink_scan() after being added to free_dquots, which can trigger a UAF in dquot_mark_dquot_dirty(); or after dquot is added to free_dquots and then to dirty_list, it is added to free_dquots again after dquot_writeback_dquots() is executed, which causes the free_dquots list to be corrupted and triggers a UAF when dqcache_shrink_scan() is called for freeing dquot twice. As Honza said, we need to fix dquot_transfer() to follow the guarantees dquot_srcu should provide. But calling synchronize_srcu() directly from dquot_transfer() is too expensive (and mostly unnecessary). So we add dquot whose last reference should be dropped to the new global dquot list releasing_dquots, and then queue work item which would call synchronize_srcu() and after that perform the final cleanup of all the dquots on releasing_dquots. Fixes: 4580b30ea887 ("quota: Do not dirty bad dquots") Suggested-by: Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Baokun Li <libaokun1@xxxxxxxxxx> --- V2->V3: Correct some comments. Simplify the code in quota_release_workfn(). Merge the patch that added releasing_dquots to the current patch. The dquots in releasing_dquots are no longer counted as free, and are no longer cleared when shrinked. fs/quota/dquot.c | 96 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--------- 1 file changed, 78 insertions(+), 18 deletions(-) diff --git a/fs/quota/dquot.c b/fs/quota/dquot.c index 88aa747f4800..c7afe433d991 100644 --- a/fs/quota/dquot.c +++ b/fs/quota/dquot.c @@ -225,13 +225,22 @@ static void put_quota_format(struct quota_format_type *fmt) /* * Dquot List Management: - * The quota code uses four lists for dquot management: the inuse_list, - * free_dquots, dqi_dirty_list, and dquot_hash[] array.
