From 1ba10d3640e9783dad811fe4e24d55465c37c64d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kees Cook Date: Wed, 4 Jan 2023 13:09:12 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] ext4: Fix function prototype mismatch for ext4_feat_ktype commit 118901ad1f25d2334255b3d50512fa20591531cd upstream. With clang's kernel control flow integrity (kCFI, CONFIG_CFI_CLANG), indirect call targets are validated against the expected function pointer prototype to make sure the call target is valid to help mitigate ROP attacks. If they are not identical, there is a failure at run time, which manifests as either a kernel panic or thread getting killed. ext4_feat_ktype was setting the "release" handler to "kfree", which doesn't have a matching function prototype. Add a simple wrapper with the correct prototype. This was found as a result of Clang's new -Wcast-function-type-strict flag, which is more sensitive than the simpler -Wcast-function-type, which only checks for type width mismatches. Note that this code is only reached when ext4 is a loadable module and it is being unloaded: CFI failure at kobject_put+0xbb/0x1b0 (target: kfree+0x0/0x180; expected type: 0x7c4aa698) ... RIP: 0010:kobject_put+0xbb/0x1b0 ...
