[PATCH v3 0/2] vt: fix some vt_ioctl races

From: Eric Biggers
Date: Sat Mar 21 2020 - 23:45:05 EST


Fix VT_DISALLOCATE freeing an in-use virtual console, and fix a
use-after-free in vt_in_use().

Changed since v2:
- Implemented tty_port_operations::destruct().
- Added comments regarding vt_in_use() locking.

Changed since v1:
- Made the vc_data be freed via tty_port refcounting.
- Added patch to fix a use-after-free in vt_in_use().

vt: vt_ioctl: fix VT_DISALLOCATE freeing in-use virtual console
vt: vt_ioctl: fix use-after-free in vt_in_use()
