From: Jann Horn Date: Wed, 15 Jun 2016 22:45:33 +0000 (+0200) Subject: android: binder: fix dangling pointer comparison X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7b142d8fd0bd4c9bf06ccb72ac4daedb503f0124;p=linux-beck.git android: binder: fix dangling pointer comparison If /dev/binder is opened and the opener process then e.g. calls execve, proc->vma_vm_mm will still point to the location of the now-freed mm_struct. If the process then calls ioctl(binder_fd, ...), the dangling proc->vma_vm_mm pointer will be compared to current->mm. Let the binder take a reference to the mm_struct to avoid this. v2: use the right refcounter Fixes: a906d6931f3c ("android: binder: Sanity check at binder ioctl") Signed-off-by: Jann Horn Reviewed-by: Chen Feng Cc: stable Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman --- diff --git a/drivers/android/binder.c b/drivers/android/binder.c index 16288e777ec3..09fdb425e2f5 100644 --- a/drivers/android/binder.c +++ b/drivers/android/binder.c @@ -2962,6 +2962,7 @@ static int binder_open(struct inode *nodp, struct file *filp) return -ENOMEM; get_task_struct(current); proc->tsk = current; + atomic_inc(¤t->mm->mm_count); proc->vma_vm_mm = current->mm; INIT_LIST_HEAD(&proc->todo); init_waitqueue_head(&proc->wait); @@ -3167,6 +3168,7 @@ static void binder_deferred_release(struct binder_proc *proc) vfree(proc->buffer); } + mmdrop(proc->vma_vm_mm); put_task_struct(proc->tsk); binder_debug(BINDER_DEBUG_OPEN_CLOSE,
