There are UAF bugs in ax25_send_control(), when we call ax25_release()
to deallocate ax25_dev. The possible race condition is shown below:
(Thread 1) | (Thread 2)
ax25_dev_device_up() //(1) |
| ax25_kill_by_device()
ax25_bind() //(2) |
ax25_connect() | ...
ax25->state = AX25_STATE_1 |
... | ax25_dev_device_down() //(3)
(Thread 3)
ax25_release() |
ax25_dev_put() //(4) FREE |
case AX25_STATE_1: |
ax25_send_control() |
alloc_skb() //USE |
The refcount of ax25_dev increases in position (1) and (2), and
decreases in position (3) and (4). The ax25_dev will be freed
before dereference sites in ax25_send_control().
The following is part of the report:

This patch defers the free operation of ax25_dev and net_device after
all corresponding dereference sites in ax25_release() to avoid UAF.
