commit 5fdb55c1ac9585eb23bb2541d5819224429e103d upstream. During BC_FREE_BUFFER processing, the BINDER_TYPE_FDA object cleanup may close 1 or more fds. The close operations are completed using the task work mechanism -- which means the thread needs to return to userspace or the file object may never be dereferenced -- which can lead to hung processes. Force the binder thread back to userspace if an fd is closed during BC_FREE_BUFFER handling. Fixes: 80cd795630d6 ("binder: fix use-after-free due to ksys_close() during fdget()") Cc: stable <stable@vger.kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Martijn Coenen <maco@android.com> Acked-by: Christian Brauner <christian.brauner@ubuntu.com> Signed-off-by: Todd Kjos <tkjos@google.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210830195146.587206-1-tkjos@google.com Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
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.
