[PATCH v2] rdma/siw: Fix a use after free in siw_alloc_mr

From: Lv Yunlong
Date: Sun Apr 25 2021 - 21:17:04 EST


Our code analyzer reported a uaf.

In siw_alloc_mr, it calls siw_mr_add_mem(mr,..). In the implementation
of siw_mr_add_mem(), mem is assigned to mr->mem and then mem is freed
via kfree(mem) if xa_alloc_cyclic() failed. Here, mr->mem still point
to a freed object. After, the execution continue up to the err_out branch
of siw_alloc_mr, and the freed mr->mem is used in siw_mr_drop_mem(mr).

My patch moves "mr->mem = mem" behind the if (xa_alloc_cyclic(..)<0) {}
section, to avoid the uaf.
