commit bb2853a6a421a052268eee00fd5d3f6b3504b2b1 upstream.

The ops-&gt;receive_buf() may be accessed concurrently from these two
functions.  If the driver flushes data to the line discipline
receive_buf() method while tiocsti() is waiting for the
ops-&gt;receive_buf() to finish its work, the data race will happen.

For example:
tty_ioctl			|tty_ldisc_receive_buf
 -&gt;tioctsi			| -&gt;tty_port_default_receive_buf
				|  -&gt;tty_ldisc_receive_buf
   -&gt;hci_uart_tty_receive	|   -&gt;hci_uart_tty_receive
    -&gt;h4_recv                   |    -&gt;h4_recv

In this case, the h4 receive buffer will be overwritten by the
latecomer, and we will lost the data.

Hence, change tioctsi() function to use the exclusive lock interface
from tty_buffer to avoid the data race.

[ Upstream commit 1b8b20868a6d64cfe8174a21b25b74367bdf0560 ]

Drivers should return -ENOTTY ("Inappropriate I/O control operation")
when an ioctl isn't supported, while -EINVAL is used for invalid
arguments.

Fix up the TIOCMGET, TIOCMSET and TIOCGICOUNT helpers which returned
-EINVAL when a tty driver did not implement the corresponding
operations.

Note that the TIOCMGET and TIOCMSET helpers predate git and do not get a
corresponding Fixes tag below.

<title>tty: Fix -&gt;session locking</title>

commit c8bcd9c5be24fb9e6132e97da5a35e55a83e36b9 upstream.

Currently, locking of -&gt;session is very inconsistent; most places
protect it using the legacy tty mutex, but disassociate_ctty(),
__do_SAK(), tiocspgrp() and tiocgsid() don't.
Two of the writers hold the ctrl_lock (because they already need it for
-&gt;pgrp), but __proc_set_tty() doesn't do that yet.

On a PREEMPT=y system, an unprivileged user can theoretically abuse
this broken locking to read 4 bytes of freed memory via TIOCGSID if
tiocgsid() is preempted long enough at the right point. (Other things
might also go wrong, especially if root-only ioctls are involved; I'm
not sure about that.)

Change the locking on -&gt;session such that:

 - tty_lock() is held by all writers: By making disassociate_ctty()
   hold it. This should be fine because the same lock can already be
   taken through the call to tty_vhangup_session().
   The tricky part is that we need to shorten the area covered by
   siglock to be able to take tty_lock() without ugly retry logic; as
   far as I can tell, this should be fine, since nothing in the
   signal_struct is touched in the `if (tty)` branch.
 - ctrl_lock is held by all writers: By changing __proc_set_tty() to
   hold the lock a little longer.
 - All readers that aren't holding tty_lock() hold ctrl_lock: By
   adding locking to tiocgsid() and __do_SAK(), and expanding the area
   covered by ctrl_lock in tiocspgrp().

commit 54ffccbf053b5b6ca4f6e45094b942fab92a25fc upstream.

tiocspgrp() takes two tty_struct pointers: One to the tty that userspace
passed to ioctl() (`tty`) and one to the TTY being changed (`real_tty`).
These pointers are different when ioctl() is called with a master fd.

To properly lock real_tty-&gt;pgrp, we must take real_tty-&gt;ctrl_lock.

This bug makes it possible for racing ioctl(TIOCSPGRP, ...) calls on
both sides of a PTY pair to corrupt the refcount of `struct pid`,
leading to use-after-free errors.

commit 7c0cca7c847e6e019d67b7d793efbbe3b947d004 upstream.

By default, the kernel will automatically load the module of any line
dicipline that is asked for.  As this sometimes isn't the safest thing
to do, provide a sysctl to disable this feature.

By default, we set this to 'y' as that is the historical way that Linux
has worked, and we do not want to break working systems.  But in the
future, perhaps this can default to 'n' to prevent this functionality.

Some tty line disciplines do not have a receive buf callback, so
properly check for that before calling it.  If they do not have this
callback, just eat the character quietly, as we can't fail this call.

Try to get reference for ldisc during tty_reopen().
If ldisc present, we don't need to do tty_ldisc_reinit() and lock the
write side for line discipline semaphore.
Effectively, it optimizes fast-path for tty_reopen(), but more
importantly it won't interrupt ongoing IO on the tty as no ldisc change
is needed.
Fixes user-visible issue when tty_reopen() interrupted login process for
user with a long password, observed and reported by Lukas.

commit 83d817f41070c48bc3eb7ec18e43000a548fca5c upstream.

tty_ldisc_reinit() doesn't race with neither tty_ldisc_hangup()
nor set_ldisc() nor tty_ldisc_release() as they use tty lock.
But it races with anyone who expects line discipline to be the same

We've seen the following crash on v4.9.108 stable:

tty_ldisc_reinit() should be called with ldisc_sem hold for writing,
which will protect any reader against line discipline changes.

commit 83d817f41070c48bc3eb7ec18e43000a548fca5c upstream.

tty_ldisc_reinit() doesn't race with neither tty_ldisc_hangup()
nor set_ldisc() nor tty_ldisc_release() as they use tty lock.
But it races with anyone who expects line discipline to be the same
after hoding read semaphore in tty_ldisc_ref().

We've seen the following crash on v4.9.108 stable:

[ Upstream commit 33a1a7be198657c8ca26ad406c4d2a89b7162bcc ]

The issue is found by a fuzzing test.
If tty_find_polling_driver() recevies an incorrect input such as
',,' or '0b', the len becomes 0 and strncmp() always return 0.
In this case, a null p-&gt;ops-&gt;poll_init() is called and it causes a kernel
panic.

Fix this by checking name length against zero in tty_find_polling_driver().
