[PATCH 6.5 055/241] xfrm6: fix inet6_dev refcount underflow problem

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

 



6.5-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Zhang Changzhong <zhangchangzhong@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit cc9b364bb1d58d3dae270c7a931a8cc717dc2b3b upstream.

There are race conditions that may lead to inet6_dev refcount underflow
in xfrm6_dst_destroy() and rt6_uncached_list_flush_dev().

One of the refcount underflow bugs is shown below:
	(cpu 1)                	|	(cpu 2)
xfrm6_dst_destroy()             |
  ...                           |
  in6_dev_put()                 |
				|  rt6_uncached_list_flush_dev()
  ...				|    ...
				|    in6_dev_put()
  rt6_uncached_list_del()       |    ...
  ...                           |

xfrm6_dst_destroy() calls rt6_uncached_list_del() after in6_dev_put(),
so rt6_uncached_list_flush_dev() has a chance to call in6_dev_put()
again for the same inet6_dev.

Fix it by moving in6_dev_put() after rt6_uncached_list_del() in
xfrm6_dst_destroy().
