(This patchset should be applied in order as changes are dependent.)
For connectionless transmission, llcp_sock_sendmsg() codepath will eventually call nfc_alloc_send_skb() which takes in an nfc_dev as an argument for calculating the total size for skb allocation.
virtual_ncidev_close() codepath eventually releases socket by calling nfc_llcp_socket_release() (which sets the sk->sk_state to LLCP_CLOSED) and afterwards the nfc_dev will be eventually freed.
When an ndev gets freed, llcp_sock_sendmsg() will result in an use-after-free as it
(1) doesn't have any checks in place for avoiding the datagram sending.
(2) calls nfc_llcp_send_ui_frame(), which also has a do-while loop which can race with freeing (a msg with size of 4096 is sent in chunks of 128 in this repro). This loop contains the call to nfc_alloc_send_skb().
Thus, I extracted nfc_dev access from nfc_alloc_send_skb() to the caller, and used a spinlock (rwlock) to protect/serialize access to the nfc_dev to avoid the UAF. Tested with syzkaller.
Since state has to be LLCP_BOUND for datagram sending, we can bail out early in llcp_sock_sendmsg().
The last patch is just a code reformat. As the datagram sending is a bigger chunk of the code, we can reduce unnecessary indentation.
Please review and let me know if any errors are there, and hopefully this gets accepted.
Thanks, Siddh
