SyS_remap_file_pages() calls mmap_region(), which calls remove_vma_list(),
which calls remove_vma(), which frees the vma.  Later (after out label)
SyS_remap_file_pages() accesses the freed vma in vm_flags = vma->vm_flags.

If the vma has been freed by the time the code jumps to the
out label (because it was freed by a function called from
mmap_region), surely it will also already have been freed
by the time this patch dereferences it?

Also, setting vma = NULL to avoid the if (vma) branch at
the out: label is unnecessarily obfuscated. Lets make things
clear by documenting what is going on, and having a label
after that dereference.

Maybe something like this patch:

---8<---

Subject: [PATCH] mm: fix use-after-free in sys_remap_file_pages

remap_file_pages calls mmap_region, which may merge the VMA with other existing
VMAs, and free "vma". This can lead to a use-after-free bug. Avoid the bug by
remembering vm_flags before calling mmap_region, and not trying to dereference
vma later.

This patch is a bit easier to read, at least for me. And if
I understand the code flow right, the issue is due to
remap_file_pages -> mmap_region -> find_vma_links -> do_munmap.

oops, yes, i meant to save the flags away before mmap_region,
no idea how i ended up with this ;).

on that note, how about this as well:

                                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^
pass in vm_flags instead of vma->vm_flags just to prevent someone
from 'optimizing' away the read in the future?

perhaps {copy,move} this comment above the previous hunk since that's
where the relevant action is?

In that case, we should probably also use ACCESS_ONCE, if
only to be explicit about it.

See the new version below:

---8<---
Subject: mm: fix use-after-free in sys_remap_file_pages

remap_file_pages calls mmap_region, which may merge the VMA with other existing
VMAs, and free "vma". This can lead to a use-after-free bug. Avoid the bug by
remembering vm_flags before calling mmap_region, and not trying to dereference
vma later.
