[PATCH] afs: Fix memory leak when mounting with multiple source parameters
From: David Howells
Date: Tue Dec 08 2020 - 18:53:39 EST
There's a memory leak in afs_parse_source() whereby multiple source=
parameters overwrite fc->source in the fs_context struct without freeing
the previously recorded source.
Fix this by only permitting a single source parameter and rejecting with an
error all subsequent ones.
This was caught by syzbot with the kernel memory leak detector, showing
something like the following trace:
unreferenced object 0xffff888114375440 (size 32):
comm "repro", pid 5168, jiffies 4294923723 (age 569.948s)
hex dump (first 32 bytes):
