====================
[PATCH net-next v7 0/2] nfc: Fix UAF during datagram sending caused by missing refcounting
Changes in v7:
- Stupidly reverted ordering in recv() too, fix that.
- Remove redundant call to nfc_llcp_sock_free().
Changes in v6:
- Revert label introduction from v4, and thus also v5 entirely.
Changes in v5:
- Move reason = LLCP_DM_REJ under the fail_put_sock label.
- Checkpatch now warns about == NULL check for new_sk, so fix that,
and also at other similar places in the same function.
Changes in v4:
- Fix put ordering and comments.
- Separate freeing in recv() into end labels.
- Remove obvious comment and add reasoning.
- Picked up r-bs by Suman.
Changes in v3:
- Fix missing freeing statements.
Changes in v2:
- Add net-next in patch subject.
- Removed unnecessary extra lock and hold nfc_dev ref when holding llcp_sock.
- Remove last formatting patch.
- Picked up r-b from Krzysztof for LLCP_BOUND patch.

For connectionless transmission, llcp_sock_sendmsg() codepath will
eventually call nfc_alloc_send_skb() which takes in an nfc_dev as
an argument for calculating the total size for skb allocation.
virtual_ncidev_close() codepath eventually releases socket by calling
nfc_llcp_socket_release() (which sets the sk->sk_state to LLCP_CLOSED)
and afterwards the nfc_dev will be eventually freed.
When an ndev gets freed, llcp_sock_sendmsg() will result in an
use-after-free as it
(1) doesn't have any checks in place for avoiding the datagram sending.
(2) calls nfc_llcp_send_ui_frame(), which also has a do-while loop
which can race with freeing. This loop contains the call to
nfc_alloc_send_skb() where we dereference the nfc_dev pointer.
nfc_dev is being freed because we do not hold a reference to it when
we hold a reference to llcp_local. Thus, virtual_ncidev_close()
eventually calls nfc_release() due to refcount going to 0.
Since state has to be LLCP_BOUND for datagram sending, we can bail out
early in llcp_sock_sendmsg().
Please review and let me know if any errors are there, and hopefully
this gets accepted.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
