commit 9fd75b66b8f68498454d685dc4ba13192ae069b0 upstream.
The previous commit d01ffb9eee4a ("ax25: add refcount in ax25_dev to
avoid UAF bugs") and commit feef318c855a ("ax25: fix UAF bugs of
net_device caused by rebinding operation") increase the refcounts of
ax25_dev and net_device in ax25_bind() and decrease the matching refcounts
in ax25_kill_by_device() in order to prevent UAF bugs, but there are
reference count leaks.
The root cause of refcount leaks is shown below:
(Thread 1) | (Thread 2)
ax25_bind() |
... |
ax25_addr_ax25dev() |
ax25_dev_hold() //(1) |
... |
dev_hold_track() //(2) |
... | ax25_destroy_socket()
| ax25_cb_del()
| ...
| hlist_del_init() //(3)
|
|
(Thread 3) |
ax25_kill_by_device() |
... |
ax25_for_each(s, &ax25_list) { |
if (s->ax25_dev == ax25_dev) //(4) |
... |
Firstly, we use ax25_bind() to increase the refcount of ax25_dev in
position (1) and increase the refcount of net_device in position (2).
Then, we use ax25_cb_del() invoked by ax25_destroy_socket() to delete
ax25_cb in hlist in position (3) before calling ax25_kill_by_device().
Finally, the decrements of refcounts in ax25_kill_by_device() will not
be executed, because no s->ax25_dev equals to ax25_dev in position (4).
This patch adds decrements of refcounts in ax25_release() and use
lock_sock() to do synchronization. If refcounts decrease in ax25_release(),
the decrements of refcounts in ax25_kill_by_device() will not be
executed and vice versa.

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.
