Описание

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

netrom: Fix a memory leak in nr_heartbeat_expiry()

syzbot reported a memory leak in nr_create() [0].

Commit 409db27e3a2e ("netrom: Fix use-after-free of a listening socket.") added sock_hold() to the nr_heartbeat_expiry() function, where a) a socket has a SOCK_DESTROY flag or b) a listening socket has a SOCK_DEAD flag.

But in the case "a," when the SOCK_DESTROY flag is set, the file descriptor has already been closed and the nr_release() function has been called. So it makes no sense to hold the reference count because no one will call another nr_destroy_socket() and put it as in the case "b."

nr_connect nr_establish_data_link nr_start_heartbeat

nr_release switch (nr->state) case NR_STATE_3 nr->state = NR_STATE_2 sock_set_flag(sk, SOCK_DESTROY);

nr_rx_frame nr_process_rx_frame switch (nr->state) ...

To fix the memory leak, let's call sock_hold() only for a listening socket.
