crypto: api - Fix use-after-free and race in crypto_spawn_alg
There are two problems in crypto_spawn_alg. First of all it may return spawn->alg even if spawn->dead is set. This results in a double-free as detected by syzbot. Secondly the setting of the DYING flag is racy because we hold the read-lock instead of the write-lock. We should instead call crypto_shoot_alg in a safe manner by gaining a refcount, dropping the lock, and then releasing the refcount. This patch fixes both problems. Reported-by: syzbot+fc0674cde00b66844470@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Fixes: 4f87ee118d16 ("crypto: api - Do not zap spawn->alg") Fixes: 73669cc55646 ("crypto: api - Fix race condition in...")
