Subject: [patch 04/12] Fix double decrement of mqueue_mnt->mnt_count in sys_mq_open (CVE-2005-3356)
Date: Fri, 27 Jan 2006 18:20:52 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060128022052.GE17001@kroah.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20060128022023.GA17001@kroah.com>

[-- Attachment #1: fix-double-decrement-of-mqueue_mnt-mnt_count-in-sys_mq_open.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 3950 bytes --]

2.6.15.2 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let 
us know.

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

From: Alexander Viro <aviro@redhat.com>

Fixed the refcounting on failure exits in sys_mq_open() and
cleaned the logics up.  Rules are actually pretty simple - dentry_open()
expects vfsmount and dentry to be pinned down and it either transfers
them into created struct file or drops them.  Old code had been very
confused in that area - if dentry_open() had failed either in do_open()
or do_create(), we ended up dentry and mqueue_mnt dropped twice, once
by dentry_open() cleanup and then by sys_mq_open().

Fix consists of making the rules for do_create() and do_open()
same as for dentry_open() and updating the sys_mq_open() accordingly;
that actually leads to more straightforward code and less work on
normal path.
