In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: rds: fix memory leak in rds_recvmsg
Syzbot reported memory leak in rds. The problem
was in unputted refcount in case of error.
int rds_recvmsg(struct socket *sock, struct msghdr *msg, size_t size,
int msg_flags)
{
...
if (!rds_next_incoming(rs, &inc)) {
...
}
After this "if" inc refcount incremented and
if (rds_cmsg_recv(inc, msg, rs)) {
ret = -EFAULT;
goto out;
}
...
out:
return ret;
}
in case of rds_cmsg_recv() fail the refcount won't be
decremented. And it's easy to see from ftrace log, that
rds_inc_addref() don't have rds_inc_put() pair in
rds_recvmsg() after rds_cmsg_recv()
1) | rds_recvmsg() {
1) 3.721 us | rds_inc_addref();
1) 3.853 us | rds_message_inc_copy_to_user();
1) + 10.395 us | rds_cmsg_recv();
1) + 34.260 us | }
