Use-after-free occurred when the laundromat tried to free expired
cpntf_state entry on the s2s_cp_stateids list after inter-server
copy completed. The sc_cp_list that the expired copy state was
inserted on was already freed.

When COPY completes, the Linux client normally sends LOCKU(lock_state x),
FREE_STATEID(lock_state x) and CLOSE(open_state y) to the source server.
The nfs4_put_stid call from nfsd4_free_stateid cleans up the copy state
from the s2s_cp_stateids list before freeing the lock state's stid.

However, sometimes the CLOSE was sent before the FREE_STATEID request.
When this happens, the nfsd4_close_open_stateid call from nfsd4_close
frees all lock states on its st_locks list without cleaning up the copy
state on the sc_cp_list list. When the time the FREE_STATEID arrives the
server returns BAD_STATEID since the lock state was freed. This causes
the use-after-free error to occur when the laundromat tries to free
the expired cpntf_state.

This patch adds a call to nfs4_free_cpntf_statelist in
nfsd4_close_open_stateid to clean up the copy state before calling
free_ol_stateid_reaplist to free the lock state's stid on the reaplist.

Nice catch.

There are a number of places that call free_ol_stateid_reaplist. Is it
really only in nfsd4_close_open_stateid that we need to do this? I
wonder if it would be better to do this inside free_ol_stateid_reaplist
instead so that all of those callers clean up the copy states as well?
Yes, we can do this in free_ol_stateid_reaplist too, I tested it.

The linux client uses either delegation state or lock state to send with
the COPY_NOTIFY to the source server. If the server grants the delegation
in the OPEN then the client uses the delegation state, otherwise it sends
the LOCK to the source and uses the lock state for the COPY_NOTIFY. This
problem happens only when the lock state is used *and* the client sends
the CLOSE and FREE_STATEID out of order.

free_ol_stateid_reaplist is called from release_open_stateid, release_openowner,
nfsd4_close_open_stateid and nfsd4_release_lockowner. Among these functions,
only nfsd4_close_open_stateid deals with lock state that may have cpntf_state
associated with it and only for the minorversion > 1 case.

nfsd4_release_lockowner will free the lock states but if the client has
not send LOCKU yet then put_ol_stateid_locked would fail to add the lock
state on the reaplist.

I'm ok to move it to free_ol_stateid_reaplist if you still think we should
and don't mind a little overhead on the unneeded cases.

If you think this is the only way this can happen, then the patch you
have is fine. In that case though, it might be good to have something
like this in free_ol_stateid_reaplist():

     WARN_ON(!list_empty(&stp->sc_cp_list));

...to try and catch cases where these objects slip through the cracks
after future changes.

Good suggestion, I'll add it to v2.

Thanks,
