Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
ipc/shm: serialize orphan cleanup with shm_nattch updates<br />
<br />
shm_destroy_orphaned() walks the shm idr under shm_ids(ns).rwsem, but that<br />
does not serialize all fields tested by shm_may_destroy(). In particular,<br />
shm_nattch is updated while holding shm_perm.lock, and attach paths can do<br />
that without holding the rwsem.<br />
<br />
Do not decide that an orphaned segment is unused before taking the object<br />
lock. Move the shm_may_destroy() check under shm_perm.lock, matching the<br />
other destroy paths, and unlock the segment when it no longer qualifies<br />
for removal.
