2025-11-24fs/proc: fix uaf in proc_readdir_de()Wei Yang1-3/+9
commit 895b4c0c79b092d732544011c3cecaf7322c36a1 upstream. Pde is erased from subdir rbtree through rb_erase(), but not set the node to EMPTY, which may result in uaf access. We should use RB_CLEAR_NODE() set the erased node to EMPTY, then pde_subdir_next() will return NULL to avoid uaf access. We found an uaf issue while using stress-ng testing, need to run testcase getdent and tun in the same time. The steps of the issue is as follows: 1) use getdent to traverse dir /proc/pid/net/dev_snmp6/, and current pde is tun3; 2) in the [time windows] unregister netdevice tun3 and tun2, and erase them from rbtree. erase tun3 first, and then erase tun2. the pde(tun2) will be released to slab; 3) continue to getdent process, then pde_subdir_next() will return pde(tun2) which is released, it will case uaf access.

2025-09-09proc: fix missing pde_set_flags() for net proc fileswangzijie1-17/+21
commit 2ce3d282bd5050fca8577defeff08ada0d55d062 upstream. To avoid potential UAF issues during module removal races, we use pde_set_flags() to save proc_ops flags in PDE itself before proc_register(), and then use pde_has_proc_*() helpers instead of directly dereferencing pde->proc_ops->*. However, the pde_set_flags() call was missing when creating net related proc files. This omission caused incorrect behavior which FMODE_LSEEK was being cleared inappropriately in proc_reg_open() for net proc files. Lars reported it in this link[1]. Fix this by ensuring pde_set_flags() is called when register proc entry, and add NULL check for proc_ops in pde_set_flags().

commit 654b33ada4ab5e926cd9c570196fefa7bec7c1df upstream. Fix race between rmmod and /proc/XXX's inode instantiation.

2023-08-09fs: pass the request_mask to generic_fillattrJeff Layton1-1/+1
generic_fillattr just fills in the entire stat struct indiscriminately today, copying data from the inode. There is at least one attribute (STATX_CHANGE_COOKIE) that can have side effects when it is reported, and we're looking at adding more with the addition of multigrain timestamps. Add a request_mask argument to generic_fillattr and have most callers just pass in the value that is passed to getattr. Have other callers (e.g. ksmbd) just pass in STATX_BASIC_STATS. Also move the setting of STATX_CHANGE_COOKIE into generic_fillattr.

Convert to struct mnt_idmap. Last cycle we merged the necessary infrastructure in 256c8aed2b42 ("fs: introduce dedicated idmap type for mounts"). This is just the conversion to struct mnt_idmap. Currently we still pass around the plain namespace that was attached to a mount. This is in general pretty convenient but it makes it easy to conflate namespaces that are relevant on the filesystem with namespaces that are relevent on the mount level. Especially for non-vfs developers without detailed knowledge in this area this can be a potential source for bugs. Once the conversion to struct mnt_idmap is done all helpers down to the really low-level helpers will take a struct mnt_idmap argument instead of two namespace arguments.

When a process exits, /proc/${pid}, and /proc/${pid}/net dentries are flushed. However some leaf dentries like /proc/${pid}/net/arp_cache aren't. That's because respective PDEs have proc_misc_d_revalidate() hook which returns 1 and leaves dentries/inodes in the LRU.

2022-01-22fs: proc: store PDE()->data into inode->i_privateMuchun Song1-6/+0
PDE_DATA(inode) is introduced to get user private data and hide the layout of struct proc_dir_entry. The inode->i_private is used to do the same thing as well. Save a copy of user private data to inode-> i_private when proc inode is allocated. This means the user also can get their private data by inode->i_private. Introduce pde_data() to wrap inode->i_private so that we can remove PDE_DATA() from fs/proc/generic.c and make PTE_DATE() as a wrapper of pde_data(). It will be easier if we decide to remove PDE_DATE() in the future.

2021-01-24fs: make helpers idmap mount awareChristian Brauner1-2/+4
Extend some inode methods with an additional user namespace argument. A filesystem that is aware of idmapped mounts will receive the user namespace the mount has been marked with. This can be used for additional permission checking and also to enable filesystems to translate between uids and gids if they need to. We have implemented all relevant helpers in earlier patches. As requested we simply extend the exisiting inode method instead of introducing new ones. This is a little more code churn but it's mostly mechanical and doesnt't leave us with additional inode methods.

Let them handle idmapped mounts. If the inode is accessed through an idmapped mount map it into the mount's user namespace. Afterwards the checks are identical to non-idmapped mounts. If the initial user namespace is passed nothing changes so non-idmapped mounts will see identical behavior as before. Helpers that perform checks on the ia_uid and ia_gid fields in struct iattr assume that ia_uid and ia_gid are intended values and have already been mapped correctly at the userspace-kernelspace boundary as we already do today.

Now that "struct proc_ops" exist we can start putting there stuff which could not fly with VFS "struct file_operations"... Most of fs/proc/inode.c file is dedicated to make open/read/.../close reliable in the event of disappearing /proc entries which usually happens if module is getting removed. Files like /proc/cpuinfo which never disappear simply do not need such protection. Save 2 atomic ops, 1 allocation, 1 free per open/read/close sequence for such "permanent" files. Enable "permanent" flag for /proc/cpuinfo /proc/kmsg /proc/modules /proc/slabinfo /proc/stat /proc/sysvipc/* /proc/swaps More will come once I figure out foolproof way to prevent out module authors from marking their stuff "permanent" for performance reasons when it is not. This should help with scalability: benchmark is "read /proc/cpuinfo R times by N threads scattered over the system".

2020-02-04proc: decouple proc from VFS with "struct proc_ops"Alexey Dobriyan1-20/+18
Currently core /proc code uses "struct file_operations" for custom hooks, however, VFS doesn't directly call them. Every time VFS expands file_operations hook set, /proc code bloats for no reason. Introduce "struct proc_ops" which contains only those hooks which /proc allows to call into (open, release, read, write, ioctl, mmap, poll). It doesn't contain module pointer as well.

2018-06-28proc: add proc_seq_releaseChunyu Hu1-1/+10
kmemleak reported some memory leak on reading proc files. After adding some debug lines, find that proc_seq_fops is using seq_release as release handler, which won't handle the free of 'private' field of seq_file, while in fact the open handler proc_seq_open could create the private data with __seq_open_private when state_size is greater than zero. So after reading files created with proc_create_seq_private, such as /proc/timer_list and /proc/vmallocinfo, the private mem of a seq_file is not freed. Fix it by adding the paired proc_seq_release as the default release handler of proc_seq_ops instead of seq_release.

2018-04-11proc: use slower rb_first()Alexey Dobriyan1-14/+12
In a typical for /proc "open+read+close" usecase, dentry is looked up successfully on open only to be killed in dput() on close. In fact dentries which aren't /proc/*/... and /proc/sys/* were almost NEVER CACHED. Simple printk in proc_lookup_de() shows that. Now that ->delete hook intelligently picks which dentries should live in dcache and which should not, rbtree caching is not necessary as dcache does it job, at last! As a side effect, struct proc_dir_entry shrinks by one pointer which can go into inline name.
