In kobject_get_path(), if kobj->name is changed between calls
get_kobj_path_length() and fill_kobj_path() and the length becomes
longer, then fill_kobj_path() will have an out-of-bounds bug.

The actual current problem occurs when the ixgbe probe.

In ixgbe_mii_bus_init(), if the length of netdev->dev.kobj.name
length becomes longer, out-of-bounds will occur.

systemd-udevd // rename netdev

len = get_kobj_path_length // old name |
path = kzalloc(len, gfp_mask); |
kobj->name = name;
/* name length becomes
* longer
*/
fill_kobj_path /* kobj path length is
* longer than path,
* resulting in out of
* bounds when filling path
*/

This is the kasan report:

This reproducer triggers that bug:

while:
do
rmmod ixgbe
sleep 0.5
modprobe ixgbe
sleep 0.5

When calling fill_kobj_path() to fill path, if the name length of
kobj becomes longer, return failure and retry. This fixes the problem.

Hi, greg k-h.
Sorry to bother you. Can this patch be merged into the mainline?
It's in my "to review" queue that I am working on. As this is not
anything that a normal user can trigger, it's not that high of a
priority, right?

thanks,

greg k-h

Thanks, I thought you had forgotten about it. I hope I'm not disturbing you.
