Subject: [PATCH] FS-Cache: fix dereference of NULL user_key_payload
Date: Tue, 24 Oct 2017 16:44:47 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171024234447.77995-1-ebiggers3@gmail.com> (raw)
From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com>
commit d124b2c53c7bee6569d2a2d0b18b4a1afde00134 upstream. Please apply
to stable for 4.3 and earlier.
When the file /proc/fs/fscache/objects (available with
CONFIG_FSCACHE_OBJECT_LIST=y) is opened, we request a user key with
description "fscache:objlist", then access its payload. However, a
revoked key has a NULL payload, and we failed to check for this.
request_key() *does* skip revoked keys, but there is still a window
where the key can be revoked before we access its payload.
Fix it by checking for a NULL payload, treating it like a key which was
already revoked at the time it was requested.
Fixes: 4fbf4291aa15 ("FS-Cache: Allow the current state of all objects to be dumped")
