[PATCH 5.1 28/70] SUNRPC: Fix a use after free when a server rejects the RPCSEC_GSS credential

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sun Jun 09 2019 - 13:26:23 EST


From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 7987b694ade8cc465ce10fb3dceaa614f13ceaf3 upstream.

The addition of rpc_check_timeout() to call_decode causes an Oops
when the RPCSEC_GSS credential is rejected.
The reason is that rpc_decode_header() will call xprt_release() in
order to free task->tk_rqstp, which is needed by rpc_check_timeout()
to check whether or not we should exit due to a soft timeout.

The fix is to move the call to xprt_release() into call_decode() so
we can perform it after rpc_check_timeout().
