If two processes mount same superblock, memory leak occurs:

CPU0               |  CPU1
do_new_mount       |  do_new_mount
  fs_set_subtype   |    fs_set_subtype
    kstrdup        |
                   |      kstrdup
    memrory leak   |

The following reproducer triggers the problem:

1. shell command: mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /mnt &amp;
2. c program: mount("/dev/sda1", "/mnt", "fuseblk", 0, "...")

with kmemleak report being along the lines of

unreferenced object 0xffff888235f1a5c0 (size 8):

Linus's tree already have refactoring patchset [1], one of them can fix this bug:
        c30da2e981a7 ("fuse: convert to use the new mount API")
After refactoring, init super_block-&gt;s_subtype in fuse_fill_super.

Since we did not merge the refactoring patchset in this branch, I create this patch.
This patch fix this by adding a write lock while calling fs_set_subtype.

We've had CONFIG_MANDATORY_FILE_LOCKING since 2015 and a lot of distros
have disabled it. Warn the stragglers that still use "-o mand" that
we'll be dropping support for that mount option.

[ Upstream commit df2474a22c42ce419b67067c52d71da06c385501 ]

Since 9e8925b67a ("locks: Allow disabling mandatory locking at compile
time"), attempts to mount filesystems with "-o mand" will fail.
Unfortunately, there is no other indiciation of the reason for the
failure.

Change how the function is defined for better readability. When
CONFIG_MANDATORY_FILE_LOCKING is disabled, printk a warning when
someone attempts to mount with -o mand.

Also, add a blurb to the mandatory-locking.txt file to explain about
the "mand" option, and the behavior one should expect when it is
disabled.

Add the following checks from __do_loopback() to clone_private_mount() as
well:

 - verify that the mount is in the current namespace

 - verify that there are no locked children

<title>fs/namespace.c: fix mountpoint reference counter race</title>

<id>urn:sha1:f511dc75d22e0c000fc70b54f670c2c17f5fba9a</id>
<content type='text'>
A race condition between threads updating mountpoint reference counter
affects longterm releases 4.4.220, 4.9.220, 4.14.177 and 4.19.118.

The mountpoint reference counter corruption may occur when:
* one thread increments m_count member of struct mountpoint
  [under namespace_sem, but not holding mount_lock]
    pivot_root()
* another thread simultaneously decrements the same m_count
  [under mount_lock, but not holding namespace_sem]
    put_mountpoint()
      unhash_mnt()
        umount_mnt()
          mntput_no_expire()

To fix this race condition, grab mount_lock before updating m_count in
pivot_root().

commit 1e9c75fb9c47a75a9aec0cd17db5f6dc36b58e00 upstream.

Since commit ff17fa561a04 ("d_invalidate(): unhash immediately")
immediately unhashes the dentry, we'll never return the mountpoint in
lookup_mountpoint(), which can lead to an unbreakable loop in
d_invalidate().

I have reports of NFS clients getting into this condition after the server
removes an export of an existing mount created through follow_automount(),
but I suspect there are various other ways to produce this problem if we
hunt down users of d_invalidate().  For example, it is possible to get into
this state by using XFS' d_invalidate() call in xfs_vn_unlink():

truncate -s 100m img{1,2}

mkfs.xfs -q -n version=ci img1
mkfs.xfs -q -n version=ci img2

mkdir -p /mnt/xfs
mount img1 /mnt/xfs

mkdir /mnt/xfs/sub1
mount img2 /mnt/xfs/sub1

cat &gt; /mnt/xfs/sub1/foo &amp;
umount -l /mnt/xfs/sub1
mount img2 /mnt/xfs/sub1

mount --make-private /mnt/xfs

mkdir /mnt/xfs/sub2
mount --move /mnt/xfs/sub1 /mnt/xfs/sub2
rmdir /mnt/xfs/sub1

Fix this by moving the check for an unlinked dentry out of the
detach_mounts() path.

commit 9c8e0a1b683525464a2abe9fb4b54404a50ed2b4 upstream.

Timothy Baldwin &lt;timbaldwin@fastmail.co.uk&gt; wrote:
&gt; As per mount_namespaces(7) unprivileged users should not be able to look under mount points:
&gt;
&gt;   Mounts that come as a single unit from more privileged mount are locked
&gt;   together and may not be separated in a less privileged mount namespace.
&gt;
&gt; However they can:
&gt;
&gt; 1. Create a mount namespace.
&gt; 2. In the mount namespace open a file descriptor to the parent of a mount point.
&gt; 3. Destroy the mount namespace.
&gt; 4. Use the file descriptor to look under the mount point.
&gt;
&gt; I have reproduced this with Linux 4.16.18 and Linux 4.18-rc8.
&gt;
&gt; The setup:
&gt;
&gt; $ sudo sysctl kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone=1
&gt; kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone = 1
&gt; $ mkdir -p A/B/Secret
&gt; $ sudo mount -t tmpfs hide A/B
&gt;
&gt;
&gt; "Secret" is indeed hidden as expected:
&gt;
&gt; $ ls -lR A
&gt; A:
&gt; total 0
&gt; drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 40 Feb 12 21:08 B
&gt;
&gt; A/B:
&gt; total 0
&gt;
&gt;
&gt; The attack revealing "Secret":
&gt;
&gt; $ unshare -Umr sh -c "exec unshare -m ls -lR /proc/self/fd/4/ 4&lt;A"
&gt; /proc/self/fd/4/:
&gt; total 0
&gt; drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 60 Feb 12 21:08 B
&gt;
&gt; /proc/self/fd/4/B:
&gt; total 0
&gt; drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 40 Feb 12 21:08 Secret
&gt;
&gt; /proc/self/fd/4/B/Secret:
&gt; total 0

I tracked this down to put_mnt_ns running passing UMOUNT_SYNC and
disconnecting all of the mounts in a mount namespace.  Fix this by
factoring drop_mounts out of drop_collected_mounts and passing
0 instead of UMOUNT_SYNC.

There are two possible behavior differences that result from this.
- No longer setting UMOUNT_SYNC will no longer set MNT_SYNC_UMOUNT on
  the vfsmounts being unmounted.  This effects the lazy rcu walk by
  kicking the walk out of rcu mode and forcing it to be a non-lazy
  walk.
- No longer disconnecting locked mounts will keep some mounts around
  longer as they stay because the are locked to other mounts.

There are only two users of drop_collected mounts: audit_tree.c and
put_mnt_ns.

In audit_tree.c the mounts are private and there are no rcu lazy walks
only calls to iterate_mounts. So the changes should have no effect
except for a small timing effect as the connected mounts are disconnected.

In put_mnt_ns there may be references from process outside the mount
namespace to the mounts.  So the mounts remaining connected will
be the bug fix that is needed.  That rcu walks are allowed to continue
appears not to be a problem especially as the rcu walk change was about
an implementation detail not about semantics.

commit df7342b240185d58d3d9665c0bbf0a0f5570ec29 upstream.

Jonathan Calmels from NVIDIA reported that he's able to bypass the
mount visibility security check in place in the Linux kernel by using
a combination of the unbindable property along with the private mount
propagation option to allow a unprivileged user to see a path which
was purposefully hidden by the root user.

Reproducer:
  # Hide a path to all users using a tmpfs
  root@castiana:~# mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /sys/devices/
  root@castiana:~#

  # As an unprivileged user, unshare user namespace and mount namespace
  stgraber@castiana:~$ unshare -U -m -r

  # Confirm the path is still not accessible
  root@castiana:~# ls /sys/devices/

  # Make /sys recursively unbindable and private
  root@castiana:~# mount --make-runbindable /sys
  root@castiana:~# mount --make-private /sys

  # Recursively bind-mount the rest of /sys over to /mnnt
  root@castiana:~# mount --rbind /sys/ /mnt

  # Access our hidden /sys/device as an unprivileged user
  root@castiana:~# ls /mnt/devices/
  breakpoint cpu cstate_core cstate_pkg i915 intel_pt isa kprobe
  LNXSYSTM:00 msr pci0000:00 platform pnp0 power software system
  tracepoint uncore_arb uncore_cbox_0 uncore_cbox_1 uprobe virtual

Solve this by teaching copy_tree to fail if a mount turns out to be
both unbindable and locked.

commit 25d202ed820ee347edec0bf3bf553544556bf64b upstream.

It was recently pointed out that the one instance of testing MNT_LOCKED
outside of the namespace_sem is in ksys_umount.

Fix that by adding a test inside of do_umount with namespace_sem and
the mount_lock held.  As it helps to fail fails the existing test is
maintained with an additional comment pointing out that it may be racy
because the locks are not held.

  rather than the cumbersome ida_simple_get(), ida_simple_remove().

  The new IDA API is similar to ida_simple_get() but better named.  The
