Eric Biggers ff7b11aa48 net: socket: set sock->sk to NULL after calling proto_ops::release()
Commit 9060cb719e ("net: crypto set sk to NULL when af_alg_release.")
fixed a use-after-free in sockfs_setattr() when an AF_ALG socket is
closed concurrently with fchownat().  However, it ignored that many
other proto_ops::release() methods don't set sock->sk to NULL and
therefore allow the same use-after-free:

    - base_sock_release
    - bnep_sock_release
    - cmtp_sock_release
    - data_sock_release
    - dn_release
    - hci_sock_release
    - hidp_sock_release
    - iucv_sock_release
    - l2cap_sock_release
    - llcp_sock_release
    - llc_ui_release
    - rawsock_release
    - rfcomm_sock_release
    - sco_sock_release
    - svc_release
    - vcc_release
    - x25_release

Rather than fixing all these and relying on every socket type to get
this right forever, just make __sock_release() set sock->sk to NULL
itself after calling proto_ops::release().

Reproducer that produces the KASAN splat when any of these socket types
are configured into the kernel:

    #include <pthread.h>
    #include <stdlib.h>
    #include <sys/socket.h>
    #include <unistd.h>

    pthread_t t;
    volatile int fd;

    void *close_thread(void *arg)
    {
        for (;;) {
            usleep(rand() % 100);
            close(fd);
        }
    }

    int main()
    {
        pthread_create(&t, NULL, close_thread, NULL);
        for (;;) {
            fd = socket(rand() % 50, rand() % 11, 0);
            fchownat(fd, "", 1000, 1000, 0x1000);
            close(fd);
        }
    }

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
