I'm wondering if this is actually a bug in the error handling in the encrypted key type. Looking in the syzbot console log, there's a lot of output from there prior to the crash, of which the following is an excerpt: [ 248.516746][T27381] encrypted_key: key user:syz not found [ 248.524392][T27382] encrypted_key: key user:syz not found [ 248.616141][T27392] encrypted_key: key user:syz not found [ 248.618890][T27393] encrypted_key: key user:syz not found [ 248.690844][T27404] encrypted_key: key user:syz not found [ 248.739405][T27403] encrypted_key: key user:syz not found [ 248.804881][T27417] encrypted_key: key user:syz not found [ 248.828354][T27418] encrypted_key: keyword 'new' not allowed when called from .update method [ 248.925249][T27427] encrypted_key: keyword 'new' not allowed when called from .update method [ 248.928200][T27415] Bad refcount user syz [ 248.934043][T27428] encrypted_key: key user:syz not found [ 248.939502][T27429] encrypted_key: key user:syz not found [ 248.968744][T27434] encrypted_key: key user:syz not found [ 248.982201][T27415] ================================================================== [ 248.996072][T27415] BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in refcount_inc_not_zero_checked+0x81/0x200 Note that the "Bad refcount user syz" is a bit I patched in to print the type and description of the key that incurred the error. It's a tad difficult to say exactly what's going on since I've no idea what the syzbot reproducer is actually doing. #{"threaded":true,"collide":true,"repeat":true,"procs":6,"sandbox":"namespace","fault_call":-1,"tun":true,"netdev":true,"resetnet":true,"cgroups":true,"binfmt_misc":true,"close_fds":true,"tmpdir":true,"segv":true} perf_event_open(&(0x7f000001d000)={0x1, 0x70, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x7f, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x7, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, @perf_config_ext}, 0x0, 0xffffffffffffffff, 0xffffffffffffffff, 0x0) keyctl$instantiate(0xc, 0x0, &(0x7f0000000100)=ANY=[@ANYBLOB='new default user:syz 04096'], 0x1, 0x0) r0 = add_key(&(0x7f0000000140)='encrypted\x00', &(0x7f0000000180)={'syz'}, &(0x7f0000000100), 0xca, 0xfffffffffffffffe) add_key$user(&(0x7f0000000040)='user\x00', &(0x7f0000000000)={'syz'}, &(0x7f0000000440)='X', 0x1, 0xfffffffffffffffe) keyctl$read(0xb, r0, &(0x7f0000000240)=""/112, 0x349b7f55) However, it looks like the encrypted key type is trying to access a user key, so maybe there's an overput there? I'm trying to insert more debugging, but the test doesn't always fail. syzbot <syzbot+6455648abc28dbdd1...@syzkaller.appspotmail.com> wrote: > HEAD commit: bc88f85c kthread: make __kthread_queue_delayed_work static > git tree: upstream > console output: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/x/log.txt?x=1730584b600000 > kernel config: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/x/.config?x=e0ac4d9b35046343 > dashboard link: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=6455648abc28dbdd1e7f > compiler: gcc (GCC) 9.0.0 20181231 (experimental) > syz repro: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/x/repro.syz?x=11c8adab600000 David
