In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipc: drop the mqueue mount with kern_unmount() on setup failure
mq_init_ns() creates the mqueue mount with fc_mount_longterm(), so its
->mnt_ns is MNT_NS_INTERNAL. When setting up the mqueue or ipc sysctls
or msg_init_ns() fails afterwards, create_ipc_ns() drops it with a plain
mntput(). With ->mnt_ns set that takes the fast path of
mntput_no_expire(). The count drops to zero and nothing ever kills the
mount, so the mount and the mqueue superblock are leaked.
Commit dc55e35f9e81 ("ipc: Store mqueue sysctls in the ipc namespace")
added the first failure path after mq_init_ns() and never dropped the
mount. Commit 7229d74e5e8c ("ipc: create_ipc_ns: drop mqueue mount on
sysctl setup failure") tried to fix that with a mntput() but that
doesn't help for a long-term mount.
Use kern_unmount(). free_ipc() open-codes the same thing for a namespace
that made it.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's inter-process communication (IPC) subsystem. When initialization of an IPC namespace fails during setup, internal message queue mounts are not properly released, causing kernel memory and resources to leak. A local user could exploit this flaw by repeatedly triggering namespace creation failures, leading to system resource exhaustion and a Denial of Service (DoS).
