        cgroup: verify that source is a string
23221e
23221e
        The following sequence can be used to trigger a UAF:
23221e
23221e
            int fscontext_fd = fsopen("cgroup");
23221e
            int fd_null = open("/dev/null, O_RDONLY);
23221e
            int fsconfig(fscontext_fd, FSCONFIG_SET_FD, "source", fd_null);
23221e
            close_range(3, ~0U, 0);
23221e
23221e
        The cgroup v1 specific fs parser expects a string for the "source"
23221e
        parameter.  However, it is perfectly legitimate to e.g.  specify a file
23221e
        descriptor for the "source" parameter.  The fs parser doesn't know what
23221e
        a filesystem allows there.  So it's a bug to assume that "source" is
23221e
        always of type fs_value_is_string when it can reasonably also be
23221e
        fs_value_is_file.
23221e
23221e
        This assumption in the cgroup code causes a UAF because struct
23221e
        fs_parameter uses a union for the actual value.  Access to that union is
23221e
        guarded by the param->type member.  Since the cgroup paramter parser
23221e
        didn't check param->type but unconditionally moved param->string into
23221e
        fc->source a close on the fscontext_fd would trigger a UAF during
23221e
        put_fs_context() which frees fc->source thereby freeing the file stashed
23221e
        in param->file causing a UAF during a close of the fd_null.
23221e
23221e
        Fix this by verifying that param->type is actually a string and report
23221e
        an error if not.
23221e
23221e
        In follow up patches I'll add a new generic helper that can be used here
23221e
        and by other filesystems instead of this error-prone copy-pasta fix.
23221e
        But fixing it in here first makes backporting a it to stable a lot
23221e
        easier.
