Subject[PATCH] fs: fix use-after-free in __fput() when a chardev is removed but a file is still open
Date
In a case when a chardev file (like /dev/ptp0) is open but an underlying
device is removed, closing this file leads to a use-after-free. This
reproduces easily in a KVM virtual machine:

# cat openptp0.c
int main() { ... fp = fopen("/dev/ptp0", "r"); ... sleep(10); }

# uname -r
5.4.0-219d5433
# cat /proc/cmdline
... slub_debug=FZP
# modprobe ptp_kvm
# ./openptp0 &
[1] 670
opened /dev/ptp0, sleeping 10s...
# rmmod ptp_kvm
# ls /dev/ptp*
ls: cannot access '/dev/ptp*': No such file or directory
# ...woken up

[ 102.410323] Fixing recursive fault but reboot is needed!

This happens in:

static void __fput(struct file *file)
{ ...
if (file->f_op->release)
file->f_op->release(inode, file); <<< cdev is kfree'd here
if (unlikely(S_ISCHR(inode->i_mode) && inode->i_cdev != NULL &&
!(mode & FMODE_PATH))) {
cdev_put(inode->i_cdev); <<< cdev fields are accessed here

because of:

__fput()
posix_clock_release()
kref_put(&clk->kref, delete_clock) <<< the last reference
delete_clock()
delete_ptp_clock()
kfree(ptp) <<< cdev is embedded in ptp
cdev_put
module_put(p->owner) <<< *p is kfree'd

The fix is to call cdev_put() before file->f_op->release(). This fix the
class of bugs when a chardev device is removed when its file is open, for
example:

# lspci
00:09.0 System peripheral: Intel Corporation 6300ESB Watchdog Timer
# ./openwdog0 &
[1] 672
opened /dev/watchdog0, sleeping 10s...
# echo 1 > /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:09.0/remove
# ls /dev/watch*
ls: cannot access '/dev/watch*': No such file or directory
# ...woken up
