Re: [PATCH net v3 09/11] rxrpc: Fix keyring reference count leak in rxrpc_setsockopt()

From: Anderson Nascimento <redacted>

In rxrpc_setsockopt(), the code checks 'rx->key' when handling the
RXRPC_SECURITY_KEYRING option.  However, this appears to be a logic error.
The code should be checking 'rx->securities' to determine if a keyring has
already been defined for the socket.

Currently, if a user calls setsockopt(RXRPC_SECURITY_KEYRING) multiple
times on the same socket, the check 'if (rx->key)' fails to block
subsequent calls because 'rx->key' has not been defined by the function.
This results in a reference count leak on the keyring.

This patch changes the check to 'rx->securities' to correctly identify if
the socket security keyring has already been configured, returning -EINVAL
on subsequent attempts.

Before the patch:

It shows the keyring reference counter elevated.

$ cat /proc/keys | grep AFSkeys1
27aca8ae I--Q--- 24469721 perm 3f010000  1000  1000 keyring   AFSkeys1: empty
$

After the patch:

The keyring reference counter remains stable and subsequent calls return an
error:

$ ./poc
setsockopt: Invalid argument
$
