[PATCH] ext4: fix use-after-iput when fscrypt contexts are inconsistent

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

 



From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx>

In the case where the child's encryption context was inconsistent with
its parent directory, we were using inode->i_sb and inode->i_ino after
the inode had already been iput().  Fix this by doing the iput() in the
correct places.

Note: only ext4 had this bug, not f2fs and ubifs.

Fixes: d9cdc9033181 ("ext4 crypto: enforce context consistency")
