From 31343d27f18f19ad1bb1c5b4475b86483598cd04 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Theodore Ts'o Date: Mon, 27 Aug 2018 01:47:09 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] ext4: check to make sure the rename(2)'s destination is not freed commit b50282f3241acee880514212d88b6049fb5039c8 upstream. If the destination of the rename(2) system call exists, the inode's link count (i_nlinks) must be non-zero. If it is, the inode can end up on the orphan list prematurely, leading to all sorts of hilarity, including a use-after-free. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=200931 Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o Reported-by: Wen Xu Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman --- fs/ext4/namei.c | 6 ++++++ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+) diff --git a/fs/ext4/namei.c b/fs/ext4/namei.c index 1db39e12e02b..eb0d8ee39827 100644 --- a/fs/ext4/namei.c +++ b/fs/ext4/namei.c @@ -3514,6 +3514,12 @@ static int ext4_rename(struct inode *old_dir, struct dentry *old_dentry, int credits; u8 old_file_type; + if (new.inode && new.inode->i_nlink == 0) { + EXT4_ERROR_INODE(new.inode, + "target of rename is already freed"); + return -EFSCORRUPTED; + } + if ((ext4_test_inode_flag(new_dir, EXT4_INODE_PROJINHERIT)) && (!projid_eq(EXT4_I(new_dir)->i_projid, EXT4_I(old_dentry->d_inode)->i_projid))) -- 2.20.1
