Jiri Benc de76ae9ea1 ipv6: fix race condition between ipv6_get_ifaddr and ipv6_del_addr
[ Upstream commit 7633c4da91 ]

Although ipv6_get_ifaddr walks inet6_addr_lst under the RCU lock, it
still means hlist_for_each_entry_rcu can return an item that got removed
from the list. The memory itself of such item is not freed thanks to RCU
but nothing guarantees the actual content of the memory is sane.

In particular, the reference count can be zero. This can happen if
ipv6_del_addr is called in parallel. ipv6_del_addr removes the entry
from inet6_addr_lst (hlist_del_init_rcu(&ifp->addr_lst)) and drops all
references (__in6_ifa_put(ifp) + in6_ifa_put(ifp)). With bad enough
timing, this can happen:

1. In ipv6_get_ifaddr, hlist_for_each_entry_rcu returns an entry.

2. Then, the whole ipv6_del_addr is executed for the given entry. The
   reference count drops to zero and kfree_rcu is scheduled.

3. ipv6_get_ifaddr continues and tries to increments the reference count
   (in6_ifa_hold).

4. The rcu is unlocked and the entry is freed.

5. The freed entry is returned.

Prevent increasing of the reference count in such case. The name
in6_ifa_hold_safe is chosen to mimic the existing fib6_info_hold_safe.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
