ceph: fix UAF in check_new_map() on session freed during unlock
check_new_map() iterates mdsc->sessions[] and for each active session
drops mdsc->mutex to perform per-session operations. The forced-close
path (rank removed from map) correctly takes a reference on s via
ceph_get_mds_session() before releasing mdsc->mutex, but three other
paths do not:
Path A (address changed): mutex_unlock → mutex_lock(&s->s_mutex)
Path B (reconnect): mutex_unlock → send_mds_reconnect(mdsc, s)
Path C (active transition): mutex_unlock → mutex_lock(&s->s_mutex)
Without the extra reference, another thread can acquire mdsc->mutex
during the unlock window, call __unregister_session() which drops the
last reference on s, and free it. The original thread then accesses
freed memory via s->s_mutex.
Fix by adding ceph_get_mds_session(s) before each mutex_unlock and
ceph_put_mds_session(s) after the corresponding mutex_lock, matching
the pattern already used in the forced-close path.
Race timeline (Path A):
Thread A (check_new_map) Thread B (another map update
holds mdsc->mutex or session teardown)
-------------------------- --------------------------
s = mdsc->sessions[i]
(refcount == 1, held only by
sessions[] array)
mutex_unlock(&mdsc->mutex)
---> acquires mdsc->mutex
__unregister_session(mdsc, s)
sessions[i] = NULL
ceph_put_mds_session(s)
refcount: 1 -> 0
kfree(s) <--- freed!
mutex_lock(&s->s_mutex)
UAF on freed s->s_mutex
