Subject: Fix race condition between vxlan_sock_add and vxlan_sock_release
From: Marcelo Leitner <mleitner@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 00c83b01d58068dfeb2e1351cca6fccf2a83fa8f ]
Currently, when trying to reuse a socket, vxlan_sock_add will grab
vn->sock_lock, locate a reusable socket, inc refcount and release
vn->sock_lock.
But vxlan_sock_release() will first decrement refcount, and then grab
that lock. refcnt operations are atomic but as currently we have
deferred works which hold vs->refcnt each, this might happen, leading to
a use after free (specially after vxlan_igmp_leave):
CPU 1 CPU 2
deferred work vxlan_sock_add
... ...
spin_lock(&vn->sock_lock)
vs = vxlan_find_sock();
vxlan_sock_release
dec vs->refcnt, reaches 0
spin_lock(&vn->sock_lock)
vxlan_sock_hold(vs), refcnt=1
spin_unlock(&vn->sock_lock)
hlist_del_rcu(&vs->hlist);
vxlan_notify_del_rx_port(vs)
spin_unlock(&vn->sock_lock)
So when we look for a reusable socket, we check if it wasn't freed
already before reusing it.
