Lin Ma June 23, 2023, 1:20 a.m. UTC
This commit fixes several use-after-free that caused by function
nfc_llcp_find_local(). For example, one UAF can happen when below buggy
time window occurs.

// nfc_genl_llc_get_params   | // nfc_unregister_device
                             |
dev = nfc_get_device(idx);   | device_lock(...)
if (!dev)                    | dev->shutting_down = true;
    return -ENODEV;          | device_unlock(...);
                             |
device_lock(...);            |   // nfc_llcp_unregister_device
                             |   nfc_llcp_find_local()
nfc_llcp_find_local(...);    |
                             |   local_cleanup()
if (!local) {                |
    rc = -ENODEV;            |     // nfc_llcp_local_put
    goto exit;               |     kref_put(.., local_release)
}                            |
                             |       // local_release
                             |       list_del(&local->list)
  // nfc_genl_send_params    |       kfree()
  local->dev->idx !!!UAF!!!  |
                             |

In summary, this patch solves those use-after-free by

1. Re-implement the nfc_llcp_find_local(). The current version does not
grab the reference when getting the local from the linked list.  For
example, the llcp_sock_bind() gets the reference like below:

// llcp_sock_bind()

    local = nfc_llcp_find_local(dev); // A
    ..... \
           | raceable
    ..... /
    llcp_sock->local = nfc_llcp_local_get(local); // B

There is an apparent race window that one can  drop the reference
and free the local object fetched in (A) before (B) gets the reference.

2. Some callers of the nfc_llcp_find_local() do not grab the reference
at all. For example, the nfc_genl_llc_{{get/set}_params/sdreq} functions.
We add the nfc_llcp_local_put() for them. Moreover, we add the necessary
error handling function to put the reference.

3. Add the nfc_llcp_remove_local() helper. The local object is removed
from the linked list in local_release() when all reference is gone. This
patch removes it when nfc_llcp_unregister_device() is called.

Therefore, every caller of nfc_llcp_find_local() will get a reference
even when the nfc_llcp_unregister_device() is called. This promises no
use-after-free for the local object is ever possible.

Fixes: 52feb444a903 ("NFC: Extend netlink interface for LTO, RW, and MIUX parameters support")
Fixes: c7aa12252f51 ("NFC: Take a reference on the LLCP local pointer when creating a socket")

V1 -> V2: not just fix nfc_genl_llc_{{get/set}_params/sdreq}
          but concern on all callers of nfc_llcp_find_local()
V2 -> V3: make nfc_llcp_local_get() static to ease the prototype
          warning, and make the commit message more clear
