[PATCH] 9p: fix crash when transaction killed

From: Schspa Shi
Date: Tue Nov 29 2022 - 11:23:10 EST


The transport layer of fs does not fully support the cancel request.
When the request is in the REQ_STATUS_SENT state, p9_fd_cancelled
will forcibly delete the request, and at this time p9_[read/write]_work
may continue to use the request. Therefore, it causes UAF .

There is the logs from syzbot.

Below is a similar scenario, the scenario in the syzbot log looks more
complicated than this one, but the root cause seems to be the same.

T21124 p9_write_work p9 read_work
======================== first trans =================================
p9_client_walk
p9_client_rpc
p9_client_prepare_req
/* req->refcount == 2 */
c->trans_mod->request(c, req);
p9_fd_request
req move to unsent_req_list
req->status = REQ_STATUS_SENT;
req move to req_list
<< send to server >>
wait_event_killable
<< get kill signal >>
if (c->trans_mod->cancel(c, req))
p9_client_flush(c, req);
/* send flush request */
req = p9_client_rpc(c, P9_TFLUSH, "w", oldtag);
if (c->trans_mod->cancelled)
c->trans_mod->cancelled(c, oldreq);
/* old req was deleted from req_list */
/* req->refcount == 1 */
p9_req_put
/* req->refcount == 0 */
<< preempted >>
<< get response, UAF here >>
m->rreq = p9_tag_lookup(m->client, m->rc.tag);
/* req->refcount == 1 */
<< do response >>
p9_client_cb(m->client, m->rreq, REQ_STATUS_RCVD);
/* req->refcount == 0 */
p9_fcall_fini
/* request have been freed */
p9_fcall_fini
/* double free */
p9_req_put(m->client, m->rreq);
/* req->refcount == 1 */

To fix it, we can wait the request with status REQ_STATUS_SENT returned.
