[PATCH 6.12 08/77] netfs: Fix potential UAF in netfs_unlock_abandoned_read_pages()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

6.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

commit dbe556972100fabb8e5a1b3d2163831ff07b1e8e upstream.

netfs_unlock_abandoned_read_pages(rreq) accesses the index of the folios it
is wanting to unlock and compares that to rreq->no_unlock_folio so that it
doesn't unlock a folio being read for netfs_perform_write() or
netfs_write_begin().

However, given that netfs_unlock_abandoned_read_pages() is called _after_
NETFS_RREQ_IN_PROGRESS is cleared, the one folio that it's not allowed to
dereference is the one specified by ->no_unlock_folio as ownership
immediately reverts to the caller.

Fix this by storing the folio pointer instead and using that rather than
the index.  Also fix netfs_unlock_read_folio() where the same applies.

Fixes: ee4cdf7ba857 ("netfs: Speed up buffered reading")
