Hi everybody, I am running v6.0.2 and can reliably trigger a use-after-free by allocating a USB gadget, binding it to the chipidea UDC and the removing the UDC. The network interface is not removed, but the chipidea SoC glue driver will remove the platform_device it had allocated in the probe, which is apparently the parent of the network device. When rtnl_fill_ifinfo runs, it will access the device parent's name for IFLA_PARENT_DEV_NAME, which is now freed memory. Steps to reproduce (on an i.MX8MM): cd /sys/kernel/config/usb_gadget/ mkdir -p mygadget cd mygadget mkdir -p configs/c.1/strings/0x409 echo "C1:Composite Device" > configs/c.1/strings/0x409/configuration mkdir -p functions/ecm.usb0 ln -s functions/ecm.usb0 configs/c.1/ echo "ci_hdrc.0" > UDC echo ci_hdrc.0 > /sys/class/udc/ci_hdrc.0/device/driver/unbind ip --details link show usb0 This gives me following KASAN report (v6.0.2 line numbers): [40645.265092] BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in rtnl_fill_ifinfo (./include/linux/device.h:704

================================================================== [40646.028664] Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint I originally thought it to be a regression, because after going from v5.18.5 to v6.0.2, an oops started to appear on every reboot. With the script above I can reproduce this with v5.18.5 though too. Looks like the freed memory is now reused in my configuration, whereas before it wasn't. Nevertheless, here's the KASAN log during shutdown (line numbers are a bit off, because the system below is running v6.0.2 with PREEMPT_RT and a couple more patches): [ 538.506709] ================================================================== [ 538.514542] BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in rtnl_fill_ifinfo (./include/linux/device.h:704 (discriminator 1) ./net/core/rtnetlink.c:1859 (discriminator 1)) [ 538.521316] Read of size 8 at addr ffff0000075ec568 by task mdnsd/908 [ 538.527795] [ 538.529311] CPU: 1 PID: 908 Comm: mdnsd Tainted: G O 6.0.2-20221018-2-rt9 #1 [ 538.529328] Hardware name: Some i.MX8MM Innocomm WB15 based system (DT) [ 538.529339] Call trace: [ 538.529343] dump_backtrace (./arch/arm64/kernel/stacktrace.c:184) [ 538.529368] show_stack (./arch/arm64/kernel/stacktrace.c:191) [ 538.529382] dump_stack_lvl (./lib/dump_stack.c:107 (discriminator 1)) [ 538.529405] print_report (./include/linux/mm.h:851 ./mm/kasan/report.c:214 ./mm/kasan/report.c:315 ./mm/kasan/report.c:433) [ 538.529422] kasan_report (./mm/kasan/report.c:162 ./mm/kasan/report.c:497) [ 538.529437] __asan_load8 (./mm/kasan/generic.c:256) [ 538.529451] rtnl_fill_ifinfo (./include/linux/device.h:704 (discriminator 1) ./net/core/rtnetlink.c:1859 (discriminator 1)) [ 538.529474] rtnl_dump_ifinfo (./net/core/rtnetlink.c:2193) [ 538.529495] netlink_dump (./net/netlink/af_netlink.c:2275) [ 538.529515] netlink_recvmsg (./net/netlink/af_netlink.c:2002) [ 538.529533] ____sys_recvmsg (./net/socket.c:995 ./net/socket.c:1013 ./net/socket.c:2701) [ 538.529551] ___sys_recvmsg (./net/socket.c:2743) [ 538.529568] __sys_recvmsg (./include/linux/file.h:31 ./net/socket.c:2775) [ 538.529584] __arm64_sys_recvmsg (./net/socket.c:2780) [ 538.529602] invoke_syscall (./arch/arm64/kernel/syscall.c:38 ./arch/arm64/kernel/syscall.c:52) [ 538.529622] el0_svc_common.constprop.0 (./arch/arm64/include/asm/daifflags.h:28 ./arch/arm64/kernel/syscall.c:150) [ 538.529644] do_el0_svc (./arch/arm64/kernel/syscall.c:207) [ 538.529662] el0_svc (./arch/arm64/kernel/entry-common.c:133 ./arch/arm64/kernel/entry-common.c:142 ./arch/arm64/kernel/entry-common.c:625) [ 538.529679] el0t_64_sync_handler (./arch/arm64/kernel/entry-common.c:643) [ 538.529700] el0t_64_sync (./arch/arm64/kernel/entry.S:581) [ 538.529781] [ 538.623543] Allocated by task 0: [ 538.627558] (stack is not available) [ 538.631183] [ 538.634283] Freed by task 2480: [ 538.637460] kasan_save_stack (./mm/kasan/common.c:39) [ 538.641409] kasan_set_track (./mm/kasan/common.c:45) [ 538.645261] kasan_set_free_info (./include/linux/kasan.h:59 ./mm/kasan/generic.c:372) [ 538.649415] ____kasan_slab_free (./mm/kasan/common.c:369 ./mm/kasan/common.c:329) [ 538.654041] __kasan_slab_free (./mm/kasan/common.c:376) [ 538.658057] slab_free_freelist_hook (./mm/slub.c:1696) [ 538.662640] kfree (./mm/slub.c:3622 (discriminator 4) ./mm/slub.c:4648 (discriminator 4)) [ 538.667522] release_nodes (./drivers/base/devres.c:498 (discriminator 3)) [ 538.671171] devres_release_all (./drivers/base/devres.c:513) [ 538.675325] device_unbind_cleanup (./drivers/base/dd.c:532) [ 538.680658] device_release_driver_internal (./drivers/base/dd.c:1257 ./drivers/base/dd.c:1275) [ 538.687827] device_release_driver (./drivers/base/dd.c:1299) [ 538.692164] bus_remove_device (./drivers/base/bus.c:530) [ 538.696317] device_del (./drivers/base/core.c:3705) [ 538.700697] platform_device_del.part.0 (./drivers/base/platform.c:753) [ 538.705473] platform_device_unregister (./drivers/base/platform.c:551 ./drivers/base/platform.c:794) [ 538.710239] ci_hdrc_remove_device (./drivers/usb/chipidea/core.c:897) [ 538.714619] ci_hdrc_imx_remove (./drivers/usb/chipidea/ci_hdrc_imx.c:526) [ 538.718805] ci_hdrc_imx_shutdown (./drivers/usb/chipidea/ci_hdrc_imx.c:542) [ 538.723046] platform_shutdown (./drivers/base/platform.c:1439) [ 538.727565] device_shutdown (./include/linux/device.h:850 ./drivers/base/core.c:4668) [ 538.731561] kernel_restart (./kernel/reboot.c:258) [ 538.735277] __do_sys_reboot (./kernel/reboot.c:769) Any pointers as to which UDC does this correctly, so the chipidea driver can mimic it?
