[ Upstream commit baa2a4fdd5 ]
audit_add_watch stores locally krule->watch without taking a reference
on watch. Then, it calls audit_add_to_parent, and uses the watch stored
locally.
Unfortunately, it is possible that audit_add_to_parent updates
krule->watch.
When it happens, it also drops a reference of watch which
could free the watch.
How to reproduce (with KASAN enabled):
auditctl -w /etc/passwd -F success=0 -k test_passwd
auditctl -w /etc/passwd -F success=1 -k test_passwd2
The second call to auditctl triggers the use-after-free, because
audit_to_parent updates krule->watch to use a previous existing watch
and drops the reference to the newly created watch.
To fix the issue, we grab a reference of watch and we release it at the
end of the function.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
