cifs: fix race between call_async() and reconnect()
[ Upstream commit 820962dc700598ffe8cd21b967e30e7520c34748 ]
cifs_call_async() queues the MID to the pending list and calls
smb_send_rqst(). If smb_send_rqst() performs a partial send, it sets
the tcpStatus to CifsNeedReconnect and returns an error code to
cifs_call_async(). In this case, cifs_call_async() removes the MID
from the list and returns to the caller.
However, cifs_call_async() releases the server mutex _before_ removing
the MID. This means that a cifs_reconnect() can race with this function
and manage to remove the MID from the list and delete the entry before
cifs_call_async() calls cifs_delete_mid(). This leads to various
crashes due to the use after free in cifs_delete_mid().
Task1 Task2
cifs_call_async():
- rc = -EAGAIN
- mutex_unlock(srv_mutex)
cifs_reconnect():
- mutex_lock(srv_mutex)
- mutex_unlock(srv_mutex)
- list_delete(mid)
- mid->callback()
cifs_writev_callback():
- mutex_lock(srv_mutex)
- delete(mid)
- mutex_unlock(srv_mutex)
- cifs_delete_mid(mid) <---- use after free
Fix this by removing the MID in cifs_call_async() before releasing the
srv_mutex. Also hold the srv_mutex in cifs_reconnect() until the MIDs
are moved out of the pending list.
