[ Upstream commit a7b42969d63f47320853a802efd879fbdc4e010e ] One extra conn_get() is needed in tipc_conn_alloc(), as after tipc_conn_alloc() is called, tipc_conn_close() may free this con before deferencing it in tipc_topsrv_accept(): tipc_conn_alloc(); newsk = newsock->sk; <---- tipc_conn_close(); write_lock_bh(&sk->sk_callback_lock); newsk->sk_data_ready = tipc_conn_data_ready; Then an uaf issue can be triggered: BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in tipc_topsrv_accept+0x1e7/0x370 [tipc] Call Trace: <TASK> dump_stack_lvl+0x33/0x46 print_report+0x178/0x4b0 kasan_report+0x8c/0x100 kasan_check_range+0x179/0x1e0 tipc_topsrv_accept+0x1e7/0x370 [tipc] process_one_work+0x6a3/0x1030 worker_thread+0x8a/0xdf0 This patch fixes it by holding it in tipc_conn_alloc(), then after all accessing in tipc_topsrv_accept() releasing it. Note when does this in tipc_topsrv_kern_subscr(), as tipc_conn_rcv_sub() returns 0 or -1 only, we don't need to check for "> 0".

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
