Recently, we got a customer report that CIFS triggers oops while
reconnecting to a server.  [0]

The workload runs on Kubernetes, and some pods mount CIFS servers
in non-root network namespaces.  The problem rarely happened, but
it was always while the pod was dying.

The root cause is wrong reference counting for network namespace.

CIFS uses kernel sockets, which do not hold refcnt of the netns that
the socket belongs to.  That means CIFS must ensure the socket is
always freed before its netns; otherwise, use-after-free happens.

The repro steps are roughly:

  1. mount CIFS in a non-root netns
  2. drop packets from the netns
  3. destroy the netns
  4. unmount CIFS

We can reproduce the issue quickly with the script [1] below and see
the splat [2] if CONFIG_NET_NS_REFCNT_TRACKER is enabled.

When the socket is TCP, it is hard to guarantee the netns lifetime
without holding refcnt due to async timers.

Let's hold netns refcnt for each socket as done for SMC in commit
9744d2bf1976 ("smc: Fix use-after-free in tcp_write_timer_handler().").

Note that we need to move put_net() from cifs_put_tcp_session() to
clean_demultiplex_info(); otherwise, __sock_create() still could touch a
freed netns while cifsd tries to reconnect from cifs_demultiplex_thread().

Also, maybe_get_net() cannot be put just before __sock_create() because
the code is not under RCU and there is a small chance that the same
address happened to be reallocated to another netns.

In smb3_reconfigure(), after duplicating ctx-&gt;password and
ctx-&gt;password2 with kstrdup(), we need to check for allocation
failures.

If ses-&gt;password allocation fails, return -ENOMEM.
If ses-&gt;password2 allocation fails, free ses-&gt;password, set it
to NULL, and return -ENOMEM.

<title>smb: client: fix OOBs when building SMB2_IOCTL request</title>

When using encryption, either enforced by the server or when using
'seal' mount option, the client will squash all compound request buffers
down for encryption into a single iov in smb2_set_next_command().

SMB2_ioctl_init() allocates a small buffer (448 bytes) to hold the
SMB2_IOCTL request in the first iov, and if the user passes an input
buffer that is greater than 328 bytes, smb2_set_next_command() will
end up writing off the end of @rqst-&gt;iov[0].iov_base as shown below:

  mount.cifs //srv/share /mnt -o ...,seal

There is a double free in such case:

Re-initialie 'ea' to NULL near to the replay_again label, it can fix this

<title>cifs: Fix creating native symlinks pointing to current or parent directory</title>

Calling 'ln -s . symlink' or 'ln -s .. symlink' creates symlink pointing to
some object name which ends with U+F029 unicode codepoint. This is because
trailing dot in the object name is replaced by non-ASCII unicode codepoint.

So Linux SMB client currently is not able to create native symlink pointing
to current or parent directory on Windows SMB server which can be read by
either on local Windows server or by any other SMB client which does not
implement compatible-reverse character replacement.

Fix this problem in cifsConvertToUTF16() function which is doing that
character replacement. Function comment already says that it does not need
to handle special cases '.' and '..', but after introduction of native
symlinks in reparse point form, this handling is needed.

Note that this change depends on the previous change
"cifs: Improve creating native symlinks pointing to directory".

SMB protocol for native symlinks distinguish between symlink to directory
and symlink to file. These two symlink types cannot be exchanged, which
means that symlink of file type pointing to directory cannot be resolved at
all (and vice-versa).

Windows follows this rule for local filesystems (NTFS) and also for SMB.

Linux SMB client currenly creates all native symlinks of file type. Which
means that Windows (and some other SMB clients) cannot resolve symlinks
pointing to directory created by Linux SMB client.

As Linux system does not distinguish between directory and file symlinks,
its API does not provide enough information for Linux SMB client during
creating of native symlinks.

Add some heuristic into the Linux SMB client for choosing the correct
symlink type during symlink creation. Check if the symlink target location
ends with slash, or last path component is dot or dot-dot, and check if the
target location on SMB share exists and is a directory. If at least one
condition is truth then create a new SMB symlink of directory type.
Otherwise create it as file type symlink.

This change improves interoperability with Windows systems. Windows systems
would be able to resolve more SMB symlinks created by Linux SMB client
which points to existing directory.

Pull smb client fixes from Steve French:

 - statfs fix (e.g. when limited access to root directory of share)

 - special file handling fixes: fix packet validation to avoid buffer
   overflow for reparse points, fixes for symlink path parsing (one for
   reparse points, and one for SFU use case), and fix for cleanup after
   failed SET_REPARSE operation.

 - fix for SMB2.1 signing bug introduced by recent patch to NFS symlink
   path, and NFS reparse point validation

 - comment cleanup

* tag 'v6.12-rc1-smb3-client-fixes' of git://git.samba.org/sfrench/cifs-2.6:
  cifs: Do not convert delimiter when parsing NFS-style symlinks
  cifs: Validate content of NFS reparse point buffer
  cifs: Fix buffer overflow when parsing NFS reparse points
  smb: client: Correct typos in multiple comments across various files
  smb: client: use actual path when queryfs
  cifs: Remove intermediate object of failed create reparse call
  Revert "smb: client: make SHA-512 TFM ephemeral"
  smb: Update comments about some reparse point tags
  cifs: Check for UTF-16 null codepoint in SFU symlink target location
