Subject[PATCH 4.14 058/106] NFC: add NCI_UNREG flag to eliminate the race
Date
From: Lin Ma <linma@zju.edu.cn>

commit 48b71a9e66c2eab60564b1b1c85f4928ed04e406 upstream.

There are two sites that calls queue_work() after the
destroy_workqueue() and lead to possible UAF.

The first site is nci_send_cmd(), which can happen after the
nci_close_device as below

nfcmrvl_nci_unregister_dev | nfc_genl_dev_up
nci_close_device |
flush_workqueue |
del_timer_sync |
nci_unregister_device | nfc_get_device
destroy_workqueue | nfc_dev_up
nfc_unregister_device | nci_dev_up
device_del | nci_open_device
| __nci_request
| nci_send_cmd
| queue_work !!!

Another site is nci_cmd_timer, awaked by the nci_cmd_work from the
nci_send_cmd.

... | ...
nci_unregister_device | queue_work
destroy_workqueue |
nfc_unregister_device | ...
device_del | nci_cmd_work
| mod_timer
| ...
| nci_cmd_timer
| queue_work !!!

For the above two UAF, the root cause is that the nfc_dev_up can race
between the nci_unregister_device routine. Therefore, this patch
introduce NCI_UNREG flag to easily eliminate the possible race. In
addition, the mutex_lock in nci_close_device can act as a barrier.
