commit fc6d01ff9ef03b66d4a3a23b46fc3c3d8cf92009 upstream.
The previous commit 7ec02f5ac8a5 ("ax25: fix NPD bug in ax25_disconnect") move ax25_disconnect into lock_sock() in order to prevent NPD bugs. But there are race conditions that may lead to null pointer dereferences in ax25_heartbeat_expiry(), ax25_t1timer_expiry(), ax25_t2timer_expiry(), ax25_t3timer_expiry() and ax25_idletimer_expiry(), when we use ax25_kill_by_device() to detach the ax25 device.
One of the race conditions that cause null pointer dereferences can be shown as below:
(Thread 1) | (Thread 2) ax25_connect() | ax25_std_establish_data_link() | ax25_start_t1timer() | mod_timer(&ax25->t1timer,..) | | ax25_kill_by_device() (wait a time) | ... | s->ax25_dev = NULL; //(1) ax25_t1timer_expiry() | ax25->ax25_dev->values[..] //(2)| ... ... |
We set null to ax25_cb->ax25_dev in position (1) and dereference the null pointer in position (2).
The corresponding fail log is shown below: =============================================================== BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000050 CPU: 1 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/1 Not tainted 5.17.0-rc6-00794-g45690b7d0 RIP: 0010:ax25_t1timer_expiry+0x12/0x40 ...

This patch moves ax25_disconnect() before s->ax25_dev = NULL and uses del_timer_sync() to delete timers in ax25_disconnect(). If ax25_disconnect() is called by ax25_kill_by_device() or ax25->ax25_dev is NULL, the reason in ax25_disconnect() will be equal to ENETUNREACH, it will wait all timers to stop before we set null to s->ax25_dev in ax25_kill_by_device().
