aa_getprocattr() allocates the output string before rendering the label
into it. If the second aa_label_snxprint() call fails, the function
returned without freeing that allocation.

Free and clear the output pointer on the uncommon formatting failure path
before dropping the namespace reference.

The function aa_replace_profiles was accessing udata-&gt;size after calling
aa_put_loaddata(udata), causing a potential UAF.

Fixed this by saving the size to a local variable before dropping the
reference.

[ Upstream commit 32e92764d6f8d251c1bca62be33793287b453a81 ]

There was a race condition involving change_hat and profile replacement in
which replacement of the parent profile during a changehat operation could
result in the list of children becoming empty and the changehat operation
failing. To prevent this:
 - grab the namespace lock until we've built the hat transition, and
 - use aa_get_newest_profile to avoid using stale profile objects.

aa_label_alloc() allocates a secid before allocating or taking the label
proxy. If the later proxy step fails, the error path only freed the label
memory, leaking any resources initialized by aa_label_init().

Use aa_label_free() on the failure path so partially initialized labels
release their secid and other label resources before the backing memory is
freed.

[ Upstream commit a58cafd38b46fb1a2220e2fbbcfe291ea75fa147 ]

aa_change_profile() builds a replacement label with
fn_label_build_in_scope() before the no_new_privs subset check. The build
helper can fail and return NULL or an ERR_PTR, but the result was passed
to aa_label_is_unconfined_subset() before the existing IS_ERR_OR_NULL()
check.

Reuse the existing target-label build failure handling immediately after
the build. This preserves the current audit handling while preventing the
subset helper from dereferencing an invalid label.

advertise the fix is available. Add an artifact so that the test suite
can identify if the fix has not been properly applied or a new
unexpected regression has occurred.

<title>apparmor: fix use-after-free in rawdata dedup loop</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a7a2890028f16e5b0af0bb005d80fcb32559cca3</id>

commit 6f060496d03e4dc560a40f73770bd08335cb7a27 upstream.

aa_replace_profiles() walks ns-&gt;rawdata_list to dedup the incoming
policy blob against entries already attached to existing profiles.
Per the kernel-doc on struct aa_loaddata, list membership does not
hold a reference: profiles hold pcount, and when the last pcount
drops, do_ploaddata_rmfs() is queued on a workqueue that takes
ns-&gt;lock and removes the entry. Between dropping the last pcount
and the workqueue running, an entry remains on the list with
pcount == 0.

aa_get_profile_loaddata() is an unconditional kref_get() on
pcount, so when the dedup loop hits such an entry, refcount
hardening reports

  refcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free.

inside aa_replace_profiles(), and the poisoned counter then
trips "saturated" and "underflow" warnings on the subsequent
uses of the same loaddata.

Before commit a0b7091c4de4 ("apparmor: fix race on rawdata
dereference") the dedup path used a get_unless_zero-style helper
on a single counter, so the existing "if (tmp)" guard was
meaningful. The split-refcount refactor introduced
aa_get_profile_loaddata(), which has plain kref_get() semantics,
and the guard quietly became a no-op.

Introduce aa_get_profile_loaddata_not0(), matching the existing
_not0 convention used by aa_get_profile_not0(), and use it for
the rawdata_list dedup lookup so dying entries are skipped.

Reproduced on x86_64 with v7.1-rc5 in QEMU+KVM running Ubuntu
24.04 + stress-ng 0.17.06:

  stress-ng --apparmor 1 --klog-check --timeout 60s

Without this patch the three refcount_t warnings fire within a
few seconds. With it the same 60 s run is clean. Coverage is a
smoke-test only; a longer soak with CONFIG_KASAN, CONFIG_KCSAN
and CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING would be welcome from anyone with the
cycles.
