Subject: tty: n_gsm: fix the UAF caused by race condition in gsm_cleanup_mux
From: Yi Yang <yiyang13@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 3c4f8333b582487a2d1e02171f1465531cde53e3 upstream.
In commit 9b9c8195f3f0 ("tty: n_gsm: fix UAF in gsm_cleanup_mux"), the UAF
problem is not completely fixed. There is a race condition in
gsm_cleanup_mux(), which caused this UAF.
The UAF problem is triggered by the following race:
task[5046] task[5054]
----------------------- -----------------------
gsm_cleanup_mux();
dlci = gsm->dlci[0];
mutex_lock(&gsm->mutex);
gsm_cleanup_mux();
dlci = gsm->dlci[0]; //Didn't take the lock
gsm_dlci_release(gsm->dlci[i]);
gsm->dlci[i] = NULL;
mutex_unlock(&gsm->mutex);
mutex_lock(&gsm->mutex);
dlci->dead = true; //UAF
Fix it by assigning values after mutex_lock().
