From c11600e4fed67ae4cd6a8096936afd445410e8ed Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Rientjes Date: Thu, 1 Sep 2016 16:15:07 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mm, mempolicy: task->mempolicy must be NULL before dropping final reference KASAN allocates memory from the page allocator as part of kmem_cache_free(), and that can reference current->mempolicy through any number of allocation functions. It needs to be NULL'd out before the final reference is dropped to prevent a use-after-free bug: BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in alloc_pages_current+0x363/0x370 at addr ffff88010b48102c CPU: 0 PID: 15425 Comm: trinity-c2 Not tainted 4.8.0-rc2+ #140 ...
