commit efe4186e6a1b54bf38b9e05450d43b0da1fd7739 upstream. When a 6pack device is detaching, the sixpack_close() will act to cleanup necessary resources. Although del_timer_sync() in sixpack_close() won't return if there is an active timer, one could use mod_timer() in sp_xmit_on_air() to wake up timer again by calling userspace syscall such as ax25_sendmsg(), ax25_connect() and ax25_ioctl(). This unexpected waked handler, sp_xmit_on_air(), realizes nothing about the undergoing cleanup and may still call pty_write() to use driver layer resources that have already been released. One of the possible race conditions is shown below: (USE) | (FREE) ax25_sendmsg() | ax25_queue_xmit() | ... | sp_xmit() | sp_encaps() | sixpack_close() sp_xmit_on_air() | del_timer_sync(&sp->tx_t) mod_timer(&sp->tx_t,...) | ... | unregister_netdev() | ... (wait a while) | tty_release() | tty_release_struct() | release_tty() sp_xmit_on_air() | tty_kref_put(tty_struct) //FREE pty_write(tty_struct) //USE | ... The corresponding fail log is shown below: =============================================================== BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in __run_timers.part.0+0x170/0x470 Write of size 8 at addr ffff88800a652ab8 by task swapper/2/0 ... Call Trace: ... queue_work_on+0x3f/0x50 pty_write+0xcd/0xe0pty_write+0xcd/0xe0 sp_xmit_on_air+0xb2/0x1f0 call_timer_fn+0x28/0x150 __run_timers.part.0+0x3c2/0x470 run_timer_softirq+0x3b/0x80 __do_softirq+0xf1/0x380 ... This patch reorders the del_timer_sync() after the unregister_netdev() to avoid UAF bugs. Because the unregister_netdev() is well synchronized, it flushs out any pending queues, waits the refcount of net_device decreases to zero and removes net_device from kernel. There is not any running routines after executing unregister_netdev(). Therefore, we could not arouse timer from userspace again.

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.
