vt: vt_ioctl: fix VT_DISALLOCATE freeing in-use virtual console
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); } } KASAN report: BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in con_shutdown+0x76/0x80 drivers/tty/vt/vt.c:3278 Write of size 8 at addr ffff88806a4ec108 by task syz_vt/129 CPU: 0 PID: 129 Comm: syz_vt Not tainted 5.6.0-rc2 #11 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS ?-20191223_100556-anatol 04/01/2014 Call Trace: [...] con_shutdown+0x76/0x80 drivers/tty/vt/vt.c:3278 release_tty+0xa8/0x410 drivers/tty/tty_io.c:1514 tty_release_struct+0x34/0x50 drivers/tty/tty_io.c:1629 tty_release+0x984/0xed0 drivers/tty/tty_io.c:1789 [...] Allocated by task 129: [...] kzalloc include/linux/slab.h:669 [inline] vc_allocate drivers/tty/vt/vt.c:1085 [inline] vc_allocate+0x1ac/0x680 drivers/tty/vt/vt.c:1066 con_install+0x4d/0x3f0 drivers/tty/vt/vt.c:3229 tty_driver_install_tty drivers/tty/tty_io.c:1228 [inline] tty_init_dev+0x94/0x350 drivers/tty/tty_io.c:1341 tty_open_by_driver drivers/tty/tty_io.c:1987 [inline] tty_open+0x3ca/0xb30 drivers/tty/tty_io.c:2035 [...] Freed by task 130: [...] kfree+0xbf/0x1e0 mm/slab.c:3757 vt_disallocate drivers/tty/vt/vt_ioctl.c:300 [inline] vt_ioctl+0x16dc/0x1e30 drivers/tty/vt/vt_ioctl.c:818 tty_ioctl+0x9db/0x11b0 drivers/tty/tty_io.c:2660 [...] Fixes: 4001d7b ("vt: push down the tty lock so we can see what is left to tackle") Cc: <[email protected]> # v3.4+ Reported-by: [email protected] Acked-by: Jiri Slaby <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers <[email protected]> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected] Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <[email protected]>
