[PATCH v2] Backport xfs security fix to 4.9 and 4.4 stable trees

[PATCH v2] Backport xfs security fix to 4.9 and 4.4 stable trees

[Siddharth Chandrasekaran]

Hello,

Lack of proper validation that cached inodes are free during allocation can,
cause a crash in fs/xfs/xfs_icache.c (refer: CVE-2018-13093). To address this
issue, I'm backporting upstream commit [1] to 4.4 and 4.9 stable trees
(a backport of [1] to 4.14 already exists).

Also, commit [1] references another commit [2] which added checks only to
xfs_iget_cache_miss(). In this patch, those checks have been moved into a
dedicated checker method and both xfs_iget_cache_miss() and
xfs_iget_cache_hit() are made to call that method. This code reorg in commit
[1], makes commit [2] redundant in the history of the 4.9 and 4.4 stable
trees. So commit [2] is not being backported.

-- Sid

[1]: afca6c5b2595 ("xfs: validate cached inodes are free when allocated")
[2]: ee457001ed6c ("xfs: catch inode allocation state mismatch corruption")

change log:
v2:
 - Reword cover letter.
 - Fix accidental worong patch that got mailed.

[PATCH 4.4 v2] xfs: validate cached inodes are free when allocated

[Siddharth Chandrasekaran]

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

commit afca6c5b2595fc44383919fba740c194b0b76aff upstream.

A recent fuzzed filesystem image cached random dcache corruption
when the reproducer was run. This often showed up as panics in
lookup_slow() on a null inode->i_ops pointer when doing pathwalks.

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000000
....
Call Trace:
 lookup_slow+0x44/0x60

 SyS_listxattr+0x13/0x20
 do_syscall_64+0xf5/0x280
 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x42/0xb7

but had many different failure modes including deadlocks trying to
lock the inode that was just allocated or KASAN reports of
use-after-free violations.

The cause of the problem was a corrupt INOBT on a v4 fs where the
root inode was marked as free in the inobt record. Hence when we
allocated an inode, it chose the root inode to allocate, found it in
the cache and re-initialised it.

We recently fixed a similar inode allocation issue caused by inobt
record corruption problem in xfs_iget_cache_miss() in commit
ee457001ed6c ("xfs: catch inode allocation state mismatch
corruption"). This change adds similar checks to the cache-hit path
to catch it, and turns the reproducer into a corruption shutdown
situation.
