Subject: [PATCH] drbd: Fix a use after free in get_initial_state
Date: Thu,  1 Apr 2021 04:57:53 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210401115753.3684-1-lyl2019@mail.ustc.edu.cn> (raw)

In get_initial_state, it calls notify_initial_state_done(skb,..) if
cb->args[5]==1. I see that if genlmsg_put() failed in
notify_initial_state_done(), the skb will be freed by nlmsg_free(skb).
Then get_initial_state will goto out and the freed skb will be used by
return value skb->len.

My patch lets skb_len = skb->len and return the skb_len to avoid the uaf.

Fixes: a29728463b254 ("drbd: Backport the "events2" command")
