SubjectRe: [PATCH net] ax25: use after free in ax25_connect
From
Date
Yes.

And there are two ways to release ax25, ax25_release and time expiry. I
tested that ax25_release will not be invoked before ax25_connect is done
by closing fd from user space. I think the reason is that __sys_connect
use fdget() to protect fd. But i can't test if a function like
ax25_std_heartbeat_expiry will release ax25 between sk_to_ax25(sk) and
lock_sock(sk).

So i think it's better to protect sk_to_ax25(sk) by a lock. Beacause
functions like ax25_release use sk_to_ax25 after a lock.
