Re: [PATCH] drm/prime: Fix use after free in mmap with drm_gem_ttm_mmap

Hi

Am 30.09.21 um 01:00 schrieb Anand K Mistry:
drm_gem_ttm_mmap() drops a reference to the gem object on success. If
the gem object's refcount == 1 on entry to drm_gem_prime_mmap(), that
drop will free the gem object, and the subsequent drm_gem_object_get()
will be a UAF. Fix by grabbing a reference before calling the mmap
helper.

This issue was forseen when the reference dropping was adding in
commit 9786b65bc61ac ("drm/ttm: fix mmap refcounting"):
"For that to work properly the drm_gem_object_get() call in
drm_gem_ttm_mmap() must be moved so it happens before calling
obj->funcs->mmap(), otherwise the gem refcount would go down
to zero."

This looks fine to me, but it affects many drivers. Let's maybe wait a bit if more reviews come it.

Best regards
Thomas
