[alsa-devel] [PATCH] ALSA: seq: Fix use-after-free at creating a port
There is a potential race window opened at creating and deleting a port via ioctl, as spotted by fuzzing. snd_seq_create_port() creates a port object and returns its pointer, but it doesn't take the refcount, thus it can be deleted immediately by another thread. Meanwhile, snd_seq_ioctl_create_port() still calls the function snd_seq_system_client_ev_port_start() with the created port object that is being deleted, and this triggers use-after-free like:

We may fix this in a few different ways, and in this patch, it's fixed simply by taking the refcount properly at snd_seq_create_port() and letting the caller unref the object after use. Also, there is another potential use-after-free by sprintf() call in snd_seq_create_port(), and this is moved inside the lock.
This fix covers CVE-2017-15265.

I'm assuming I'll just get this through the normal sound fixes pull request?
Also, just for future issues, I really wish people would edit the call traces to be a bit more legible. You did remove some of the excessive KASAN noise, but the stack trace hex numbers are a bit distracting too.
Of course, the only reason those hex numbers are there in the first place was that the oops was generated with an older kernel - we don't even print them out any more.
Not a big deal, but I thought I'd mention it just because I generally encourage people to try to edit down oopses etc to the really relevant parts (the kernel often spits out a lot of stuff that isn't really relevant for the particular bug, because it *might* be)
Thanks, Linus

Yes, I'll send you a pull request tomorrow together with other fixes.

OK, noted.
Now after seeing lots of commits with stack trace messages in this week (I warn you beforehand!), I share the same feeling. Will tidy up harder at the next time.
Thanks!
