commit 91286ccf56bb5030c0c84b11684f06142f50e681

Author: David Howells <[email protected]>
Date:   Tue Mar 18 09:54:54 2025 +0000

keys: Fix UAF in key_put()

Once a key's reference count has been reduced to 0, the garbage collector thread may destroy it at any time and so key_put() is not allowed to touch the key after that point. The most key_put() is normally allowed to do is to touch key_gc_work as that's a static global variable.

However, in an effort to speed up the reclamation of quota, this is now done in key_put() once the key's usage is reduced to 0 - but now the code is looking at the key after the deadline, which is forbidden.

Fix this by using a flag to indicate that a key can be gc'd now rather than looking at the key's refcount in the garbage collector.

Fixes 9578e327b2b4 ("keys: update key quotas in key_put()")
