[RFC PATCH 01/62] securityfs: fix use-after-free on symlink traversal

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

symlink body shouldn't be freed without an RCU delay.  Switch securityfs
to ->destroy_inode() and use of call_rcu(); free both the inode and symlink
body in the callback.
