Subject: [RFC] debugfs: protect against rmmod while files are open
From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@...el.com>
Currently, things will crash (or at least UAF) in release() when
a module owning a debugfs file, but that didn't set the fops.owner,
is removed while the offending debugfs file is open.
Since we have the proxy_fops, we can break that down into two
different cases:
If the fops doesn't have a release method, we don't even need
to keep a reference to the real_fops, we can just fops_put()
them already in debugfs remove, and a later full_proxy_release()
won't call anything anyway - this just crashed/UAFed because it
used real_fops, not because there was actually a (now invalid)
release() method.
If, on the other hand, the fops do have a release method then
WARN and prevent adding this debugfs file if it doesn't also
have an owner and the release method is in a module. In theory,
the fops and the release method could be in different modules,
while this is something we don't really need to consider it is
in fact handled as well because we make a copy of the release()
pointer and call through that, releasing the fops when the file
is removed from debugfs.
Surely this warning will find a few places that should have an
owner, but at least then we don't have to add one everywhere.
