Subject: [PATCH] pipe: fix potential use-after-free in pipe_read()
Date: Thu, 17 Nov 2022 19:53:23 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221117115323.1718-1-thunder.leizhen@huawei.com> (raw)

Accessing buf->flags after pipe_buf_release(pipe, buf) is unsafe, because
the 'buf' memory maybe freed.

In fact, pipe->note_loss does not need the protection of spinlock
pipe->rd_wait.lock, it only needs the protection of __pipe_lock(pipe). So
make the assignment of pipe->note_loss complete before releasing 'buf' to
eliminate the risk.

Fixes: e7d553d69cf6 ("pipe: Add notification lossage handling")
