From c0d0fad9bed7d990d6a00ed062b384cdcd6f0538 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Karsten Graul Date: Wed, 14 Oct 2020 19:43:27 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] net/smc: fix use-after-free of delayed events [ Upstream commit d535ca1367787ddc8bff22d679a11f864c8228bc ] When a delayed event is enqueued then the event worker will send this event the next time it is running and no other flow is currently active. The event handler is called for the delayed event, and the pointer to the event keeps set in lgr->delayed_event. This pointer is cleared later in the processing by smc_llc_flow_start(). This can lead to a use-after-free condition when the processing does not reach smc_llc_flow_start(), but frees the event because of an error situation. Then the delayed_event pointer is still set but the event is freed. Fix this by always clearing the delayed event pointer when the event is provided to the event handler for processing, and remove the code to clear it in smc_llc_flow_start().
