[PATCH 4.14 063/193] fanotify: fix fsnotify_prepare_user_wait() failure

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Nov 28 2017 - 05:45:46 EST


4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit f37650f1c7c71cf5180b43229d13b421d81e7170 upstream.

If fsnotify_prepare_user_wait() fails, we leave the event on the
notification list. Which will result in a warning in
fsnotify_destroy_event() and later use-after-free.

Instead of adding a new helper to remove the event from the list in this
case, I opted to move the prepare/finish up into fanotify_handle_event().

This will allow these to be moved further out into the generic code later,
and perhaps let us move to non-sleeping RCU.
