[PATCH 6.18 04/29] ksmbd: ipc: fix use-after-free in ipc_msg_send_request

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

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

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

From: Qianchang Zhao <pioooooooooip@gmail.com>

commit 1fab1fa091f5aa97265648b53ea031deedd26235 upstream.

ipc_msg_send_request() waits for a generic netlink reply using an
ipc_msg_table_entry on the stack. The generic netlink handler
(handle_generic_event()/handle_response()) fills entry->response under
ipc_msg_table_lock, but ipc_msg_send_request() used to validate and free
entry->response without holding the same lock.

Under high concurrency this allows a race where handle_response() is
copying data into entry->response while ipc_msg_send_request() has just
freed it, leading to a slab-use-after-free reported by KASAN in
handle_generic_event():

  BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in handle_generic_event+0x3c4/0x5f0 [ksmbd]
  Write of size 12 at addr ffff888198ee6e20 by task pool/109349
  ...
  Freed by task:
    kvfree
    ipc_msg_send_request [ksmbd]
    ksmbd_rpc_open -> ksmbd_session_rpc_open [ksmbd]

Fix by:
- Taking ipc_msg_table_lock in ipc_msg_send_request() while validating
  entry->response, freeing it when invalid, and removing the entry from
  ipc_msg_table.
- Returning the final entry->response pointer to the caller only after
  the hash entry is removed under the lock.
- Returning NULL in the error path, preserving the original API
  semantics.

This makes all accesses to entry->response consistent with
handle_response(), which already updates and fills the response buffer
under ipc_msg_table_lock, and closes the race that allowed the UAF.
