[ Upstream commit 34a500caf48c47d5171f4aa1f237da39b07c6157 ]
There are two bugs in rose_rt_device_down() that can cause
use-after-free:
1. The loop bound `t->count` is modified within the loop, which can
cause the loop to terminate early and miss some entries.
2. When removing an entry from the neighbour array, the subsequent entries
are moved up to fill the gap, but the loop index `i` is still
incremented, causing the next entry to be skipped.
For example, if a node has three neighbours (A, A, B) with count=3 and A
is being removed, the second A is not checked.
i=0: (A, A, B) -> (A, B) with count=2
^ checked
i=1: (A, B) -> (A, B) with count=2
^ checked (B, not A!)
i=2: (doesn't occur because i < count is false)
This leaves the second A in the array with count=2, but the rose_neigh
structure has been freed. Code that accesses these entries assumes that
the first `count` entries are valid pointers, causing a use-after-free
when it accesses the dangling pointer.
Fix both issues by iterating over the array in reverse order with a fixed
loop bound. This ensures that all entries are examined and that the removal
of an entry doesn't affect subsequent iterations.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
