I didn't find specific issues with Landlock's code except the extra
check in hook_inode_free_security().  It looks like inode->i_security is
a dangling pointer, leading to UAF.

Reading security_inode_free() comments, two things looks weird to me:

/**
 * security_inode_free() - Free an inode's LSM blob
 * @inode: the inode
 *
 * Deallocate the inode security structure and set @inode->i_security to NULL.

I don't see where i_security is set to NULL.

 */
void security_inode_free(struct inode *inode)
{

Shouldn't we add this check here?
if (!inode->i_security)
	return;

	call_void_hook(inode_free_security, inode);
	/*
	 * The inode may still be referenced in a path walk and
	 * a call to security_inode_permission() can be made
	 * after inode_free_security() is called. Ideally, the VFS
	 * wouldn't do this, but fixing that is a much harder
	 * job. For now, simply free the i_security via RCU, and
	 * leave the current inode->i_security pointer intact.
	 * The inode will be freed after the RCU grace period too.

It's not clear to me why this should be safe if an LSM try to use the
partially-freed blob after the hook calls and before the actual blob
free.

	 */
	if (inode->i_security)
		call_rcu((struct rcu_head *)inode->i_security,
			 inode_free_by_rcu);

And then:
inode->i_security = NULL;

But why call_rcu()?  i_security is not protected by RCU barriers.

Possibly a Landlock issue, Mickaël?

It looks like security_inode_free() is called two times on the same
inode.  This could happen if an inode labeled by Landlock is put
concurrently with release_inode() for a closed ruleset or with
hook_sb_delete().  I didn't find any race condition that could lead to
two calls to iput() though.  Could WRITE_ONCE(object->underobj, NULL)
change anything even if object->lock is locked?

I don't think so anymore, the issue is with i_security, not the blob
content.

A bit unrelated but looking at the SELinux code, I see that selinux_inode()
checks `!inode->i_security`.  In which case could this happen?

I think this shouldn't happen, and that might actually be an issue for
SELinux.  See my above comment about security_free_inode().
