Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
libceph: fix race between delayed_work() and ceph_monc_stop()<br />
<br />
The way the delayed work is handled in ceph_monc_stop() is prone to<br />
races with mon_fault() and possibly also finish_hunting(). Both of<br />
these can requeue the delayed work which wouldn&#39;t be canceled by any of<br />
the following code in case that happens after cancel_delayed_work_sync()<br />
runs -- __close_session() doesn&#39;t mess with the delayed work in order<br />
to avoid interfering with the hunting interval logic. This part was<br />
missed in commit b5d91704f53e ("libceph: behave in mon_fault() if<br />
cur_mon auth and monc->monmap being<br />
particularly susceptible to quickly being reused.<br />
<br />
To fix this:<br />
<br />
- clear monc->cur_mon and monc->hunting as part of closing the session<br />
in ceph_monc_stop()<br />
- bail from delayed_work() if monc->cur_mon is cleared, similar to how<br />
it&#39;s done in mon_fault() and finish_hunting() (based on monc->hunting)<br />
- call cancel_delayed_work_sync() after the session is closed
