Subject: [PATCH 2/2] ext4: Fix potential uas-after-free about sbi->s_mmp_tsk when kmmpd kthread exit before set sbi->s_mmp_tsk

Now sbi->s_mmp_tsk is created with kthread_run, then kmmpd maybe
already running and even exit as exception. Even though we set
sbi->s_mmp_tsk with NULL before kmmpd kthread exit, but
"sbi->s_mmp_tsk=kthread_run(XX)" may set after set with NULL.
mount kmmpd
| |
|-call kthread_run |
| |-kmmpd runing
| |-kmmpd exit sbi->s_mmp_tsk=NULL
| |
|-kthread_run return |
| and set sbi->s_mmp_tsk |
| |
|-then we get wild ptr"sbi->s_mmp_tsk" and later trigger UAF

This patch is base on previous "ext4: Fix use-after-free about sbi->s_mmp_tsk".
Previous patch ensure kmmpd kthread exit by itself will set sbi->s_mmp_tsk with
NULL. We can create kthread first, and then wakeup kmmpd kthread later.

As kmmpd will exit if filesystem is read-only. Then sbi->s_mmp_tsk become wild
ptr, lead to use-after-free. As kmmpd will exit by others(call ktread_stop)
or by itself. After 618f003199c6 commit we can trigger this issue very easy.
Before this commit also exist this issue.
If kmmpd exit by itself, after merge 618f003199c6 commit there will trigger UAF
when umount filesystem.
To fix this issue, introduce sbi->s_mmp_lock to protect sbi->s_mmp_tsk. If kmmpd
exit by itself, we set sbi->s_mmp_tsk with NULL, and release mmp buffer_head.

Subject: [PATCH] ext4: possible use-after-free when remounting r/o a mmp-protected file system

After commit 618f003199c6 ("ext4: fix memory leak in
ext4_fill_super"), after the file system is remounted read-only, there
is a race where the kmmpd thread can exit, causing sbi->s_mmp_tsk to
point at freed memory, which the call to ext4_stop_mmpd() can trip
over.

Fix this by only allowing kmmpd() to exit when it is stopped via
ext4_stop_mmpd().

Ye, thanks for reporting the bug! I think this might be a better way
to address the problem, since it avoids adding a mutex just to protect
s_mmp_tsk. What do you think?

Honestly, this is just ugly. I think it would be saner if ext4_stop_mmpd()
did:

void ext4_stop_mmpd(struct ext4_sb_info *sbi)
{
struct task_struct *tsk;

mutex_lock(&sbi->s_mmp_lock);
tsk = sbi->s_mmp_tsk;
if (tsk) {
sbi->s_mmp_tsk = NULL;
get_task_struct(tsk);
}
mutex_unlock(&sbi->s_mmp_lock);
if (tsk) {
kthread_stop(tsk);
put_task_struct(k);
}
}

And you leave freeing of 'bh' to exit path from kmmpd() which can also use
normal locking scheme for zeroing s_mmp_tsk now.

That being said for this scheme spinlock is enough, you don't need a mutex
for s_mmp_lock.

Please note minor typo in the patch subject, should be "use-after-free".

Yeah, what you suggest is probably simpler. Some comments below.

We can probably use ext4_has_feature_mmp() macro when changing this?

Cannot this effectively block remount RO for 1s when we wait for kmmpd to
exit? I think doing 'break' when we detected RO super is fine. We'll write
the mmp block and then wait for kthread_should_stop() condition as in any
other abort case. Am I missing something?

This makes me a bit nervous that we could unnecessarily burn CPU for
potentially a long time (e.g. if somebody uses tune2fs to disable MMP, we
would be sitting in this loop until the fs in remounted / unmounted). So
maybe we should have something like:

while (!kthread_should_stop()) {
set_task_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);
if (!kthread_should_stop())
schedule();
}

This should safely synchronize with (and not miss wakeup from)
kthread_stop() since that first sets KTHREAD_SHOULD_STOP and after that
calls wake_up_process().

Yeah, we do want to update the mmp block when remounting the file
system read-only. So breaking out to exit is the right thing to do
here.

Yep, good catch. I'll fix this and send out revised patch.

Subject: [PATCH -v3] ext4: fix possible UAF when remounting r/o a mmp-protected file system

After commit 618f003199c6 ("ext4: fix memory leak in
ext4_fill_super"), after the file system is remounted read-only, there
is a race where the kmmpd thread can exit, causing sbi->s_mmp_tsk to
point at freed memory, which the call to ext4_stop_mmpd() can trip
over.

Fix this by only allowing kmmpd() to exit when it is stopped via
ext4_stop_mmpd().

The patch looks mostly fine. Two comments below.

I think we need to keep retval = write_mmp_block() here. Otherwise we could
exit early in sb_rdonly() case and still have potential use-after-free.

This is more or less fine but if we get a spurious wakeup for whatever
reason (which sets task to TASK_RUNNING state) we would still be
potentially looping in that loop burning cpu...

Subject: [PATCH -v4] ext4: fix possible UAF when remounting r/o a mmp-protected file system

After commit 618f003199c6 ("ext4: fix memory leak in
ext4_fill_super"), after the file system is remounted read-only, there
is a race where the kmmpd thread can exit, causing sbi->s_mmp_tsk to
point at freed memory, which the call to ext4_stop_mmpd() can trip
over.

Fix this by only allowing kmmpd() to exit when it is stopped via
ext4_stop_mmpd().
