      "title": "ceph: fix UAF in __kick_flushing_caps() on cf entry freed during unlock",
      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nceph: fix UAF in __kick_flushing_caps() on cf entry freed during unlock\n\nlist_for_each_entry() iterates ci->i_cap_flush_list but drops\ni_ceph_lock to send cap messages.  During the unlock window,\nhandle_cap_flush_ack() can acquire i_ceph_lock, detach cf entries\nwith tid <= flush_tid from the list, release i_ceph_lock, and free\nthem via ceph_free_cap_flush() outside any lock.  When the original\nthread reacquires i_ceph_lock and the for-loop macro advances via\ncf = list_next_entry(cf, i_list), it dereferences cf->i_list.next\non freed memory.\n\nThe race timeline:\n\n  __kick_flushing_caps()              handle_cap_flush_ack()\n  -----------------------             -----------------------\n  holds i_ceph_lock        <---\n  iterates to cf (tid=10)\n  prepares FLUSH message\n  drops i_ceph_lock        <---\n  __send_cap() ── FLUSH(tid=10)\n\t                              MDS sends FLUSH_ACK(tid=10)\n                           --->       acquires i_ceph_lock\n                                      cf->tid(10) <= flush_tid(10),\n                                      detaches cf from i_cap_flush_list\n                                      drops i_ceph_lock\n                                      ceph_free_cap_flush(cf) <- frees it!\n  acquires i_ceph_lock     <---\n  for-loop advances:\n    cf = list_next_entry(cf, i_list)\n      -- UAF on freed cf->i_list.next\n\nThe cf was just sent by __kick_flushing_caps itself via __send_cap().\nThe MDS may respond with FLUSH_ACK quickly enough that\nhandle_cap_flush_ack() frees cf before __kick_flushing_caps can\nfinish the iteration.\n\nFix by converting to a manual while loop: save the next pointer\nunder i_ceph_lock before dropping it, then use the saved pointer\nafter reacquiring, so the potentially-freed cf is never accessed again.",
