Subject: [PATCH 6/9] ceph: fix mdsmap use-after-free in ceph_get_tree() error path
Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2026 17:18:27 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261111161830.1336485-7-max.kellermann@ionos.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261111161830.1336485-1-max.kellermann@ionos.com>
When mounting fails, ceph_get_tree() calls
ceph_mdsmap_is_cluster_available() on mdsc->mdsmap without holding
mdsc->mutex. The MDS client is still running at that point, and
ceph_mdsc_handle_mdsmap() can replace the mdsmap and free the old one
concurrently, so this can walk freed memory.
Check the map while holding mdsc->mutex.
Fixes: 97820058fb28 ("ceph: check availability of mds cluster on mount after wait timeout")
