From a06247c6804f1a7c86a2e5398a4c1f1db1471848 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Suren Baghdasaryan surenb@google.com Date: Tue, 11 Jan 2022 15:23:09 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] psi: Fix uaf issue when psi trigger is destroyed while being polled
With write operation on psi files replacing old trigger with a new one, the lifetime of its waitqueue is totally arbitrary. Overwriting an existing trigger causes its waitqueue to be freed and pending poll() will stumble on trigger->event_wait which was destroyed. Fix this by disallowing to redefine an existing psi trigger. If a write operation is used on a file descriptor with an already existing psi trigger, the operation will fail with EBUSY error. Also bypass a check for psi_disabled in the psi_trigger_destroy as the flag can be flipped after the trigger is created, leading to a memory leak.
