    tun: fix use after free for ptr_ring · b196d88a
    Jason Wang authored
    We used to initialize ptr_ring during TUNSETIFF, this is because its
    size depends on the tx_queue_len of netdevice. And we try to clean it
    up when socket were detached from netdevice. A race were spotted when
    trying to do uninit during a read which will lead a use after free for
    pointer ring. Solving this by always initialize a zero size ptr_ring
    in open() and do resizing during TUNSETIFF, and then we can safely do
    cleanup during close(). With this, there's no need for the workaround
    that was introduced by commit 4df0bfc7 ("tun: fix a memory leak
    for tfile->tx_array").
