Subject: [PATCH v3] statmount: Fix the null-ptr-deref in do_statmount()
Date: Fri, 13 Feb 2026 18:30:06 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260213103006.2472569-1-wangqing7171@gmail.com> (raw)
If the mount is internal, it's mnt_ns will be MNT_NS_INTERNAL, which is
defined as ERR_PTR(-EINVAL). So, in the do_statmount(), need to check ns
of mount by IS_ERR() and return.
Fixes: 0e5032237ee5 ("statmount: accept fd as a parameter")
Reported-by: syzbot+9e03a9535ea65f687a44@syzkaller.appspotmail.com
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/all/698e287a.a70a0220.2c38d7.009e.GAE@google.com/
