vt: vt_ioctl: fix VT_DISALLOCATE freeing in-use virtual console
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
commit ca4463bf8438b403596edd0ec961ca0d4fbe0220 upstream.

The VT_DISALLOCATE ioctl can free a virtual console while tty_release()
is still running, causing a use-after-free in con_shutdown().  This
occurs because VT_DISALLOCATE considers a virtual console's
'struct vc_data' to be unused as soon as the corresponding tty's
refcount hits 0.  But actually it may be still being closed.

Fix this by making vc_data be reference-counted via the embedded
'struct tty_port'.  A newly allocated virtual console has refcount 1.
Opening it for the first time increments the refcount to 2.  Closing it
for the last time decrements the refcount (in tty_operations::cleanup()
so that it happens late enough), as does VT_DISALLOCATE.

Reproducer:
	#include <fcntl.h>
	#include <linux/vt.h>
	#include <sys/ioctl.h>
	#include <unistd.h>

	int main()
	{
		if (fork()) {
			for (;;)
				close(open("/dev/tty5", O_RDWR));
		} else {
			int fd = open("/dev/tty10", O_RDWR);

			for (;;)
				ioctl(fd, VT_DISALLOCATE, 5);
		}
	}
