ntfs3: free replaced mount options after a grace period
ntfs_fs_reconfigure() replaces the old mount options with new mount options in sbi->options. The old mount options land in fs_context and are freed as soon as remount returns. With a pathwalk held up in ntfs_nls_to_utf16() between loading sbi->options and dereferencing it while a remount replaces them: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in ntfs_nls_to_utf16+0x7ae/0x7c0 Read of size 8 at addr ff110001044fd448 by task walker/98 Call Trace: <TASK> ntfs_nls_to_utf16+0x7ae/0x7c0 ntfs_d_hash+0x22b/0x500 link_path_walk+0x11ad/0x1d30 path_lookupat+0x63/0xb00 filename_lookup+0x1f1/0x5b0 vfs_statx+0xd7/0x3b0 [...] Allocated by task 95: __kmalloc_node_track_caller_noprof+0x2a2/0x730 kmemdup_noprof+0x25/0x50 ntfs_fill_super+0x1e5/0x4550 [...] Freed by task 97: kfree+0x1db/0x5b0 put_fs_context+0x13c/0x7d0 path_mount+0x54a/0x2130 __x64_sys_mount+0x20c/0x270 That info is needed in rcu lookup in the dentry hash and dentry compary methods for ntfs3 and causes a UAF today. Delay freeing with an rcu grace period. ntfs_nls_to_utf16() reads ->nls and ->ads once under rcu_read_lock() so the hooks pair with the release in ntfs_fs_reconfigure(). That also covers callers outside of rcu pathwalk such as ntfs_lookup(). They don't hold rcu_read_lock() themselves and wouldn't be protected by the grace period otherwise. Remount refuses to change the iocharset so ->nls stays valid after rcu_read_unlock().
