commit fd94d9d

If priv->len is a multiple of 4, then dst[len / 4] can write past
the destination array which leads to stack corruption.

This construct is necessary to clean the remainder of the register
in case ->len is NOT a multiple of the register size, so make it
conditional just like nft_payload.c does.

The bug was added in 4.1 cycle and then copied/inherited when
tcp/sctp and ip option support was added.

Bug reported by Zero Day Initiative project (ZDI-CAN-21950,
ZDI-CAN-21951, ZDI-CAN-21961).

Fixes: 49499c3 ("netfilter: nf_tables: switch registers to 32 bit addressing")
Fixes: 935b7f6 ("netfilter: nft_exthdr: add TCP option matching")
Fixes: 133dc20 ("netfilter: nft_exthdr: Support SCTP chunks")
Fixes: dbb5281 ("netfilter: nf_tables: add support for matching IPv4 options")

commit 685f7d5

syzbot found another use-after-free in ip6_route_mpath_notify() [1]

Commit f722517 ("net/ipv6: prevent use after free in
ip6_route_mpath_notify") was not able to fix the root cause.

We need to defer the fib6_info_release() calls after
ip6_route_mpath_notify(), in the cleanup phase.

commit a26ff37

net_alloc_generic is called by net_alloc, which is called without any
locking. It reads max_gen_ptrs, which is changed under pernet_ops_rwsem. It
is read twice, first to allocate an array, then to set s.len, which is
later used to limit the bounds of the array access.

It is possible that the array is allocated and another thread is
registering a new pernet ops, increments max_gen_ptrs, which is then used
to set s.len with a larger than allocated length for the variable array.

Fix it by reading max_gen_ptrs only once in net_alloc_generic. If
max_gen_ptrs is later incremented, it will be caught in net_assign_generic.

commit f2db723

Anderson Nascimento reported a use-after-free splat in tcp_twsk_unique()
with nice analysis.

Since commit ec94c26 ("tcp/dccp: avoid one atomic operation for
timewait hashdance"), inet_twsk_hashdance() sets TIME-WAIT socket's
sk_refcnt after putting it into ehash and releasing the bucket lock.

Thus, there is a small race window where other threads could try to
reuse the port during connect() and call sock_hold() in tcp_twsk_unique()
for the TIME-WAIT socket with zero refcnt.

If that happens, the refcnt taken by tcp_twsk_unique() is overwritten
and sock_put() will cause underflow, triggering a real use-after-free
somewhere else.

To avoid the use-after-free, we need to use refcount_inc_not_zero() in
tcp_twsk_unique() and give up on reusing the port if it returns false.

refcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free.

As you pointed out on Slack, this leaves the trace_posix_lock_inode() call at the bottom of the function.

I want to add though: leaving the trace_posix_lock_inode() outside of the spin lock is the cause of the CVE. So this not only results in a duplicate trace call, but also results in the CVE not getting fixed.

For posterity: this was an incorrect merge resolution by git cherry-pick because it does a 3-way merge, which is why this commit cherry-picked cleanly. Because to git, it looked like the deletion of the old trace_posix_lock_inode() had already been done in this tree.

The previous commit is the precoditional fix which is pretty easy to see that it moved twice and without it we get a clean pick where this now has two trace_psix_loc_indoe calls. 893c028.

While we don't have the exact example we can likely simulate it for internal and public facing docs in the GH wiki.

commit 1b3ec4f

Light Hsieh reported a KASAN UAF warning in trace_posix_lock_inode().
The request pointer had been changed earlier to point to a lock entry
that was added to the inode's list. However, before the tracepoint could
fire, another task raced in and freed that lock.

Fix this by moving the tracepoint inside the spinlock, which should
ensure that this doesn't happen.

     mptcp_pm_del_add_timer             kfree(entry)

In remove_anno_list_by_saddr(running on CPU2), after leaving the critical
zone protected by "pm.lock", the entry will be released, which leads to the
occurrence of uaf in the mptcp_pm_del_add_timer(running on CPU1).

Keeping a reference to add_timer inside the lock, and calling
sk_stop_timer_sync() with this reference, instead of "entry->add_timer".

Move list_del(&entry->list) to mptcp_pm_del_add_timer and inside the pm lock,
do not directly access any members of the entry outside the pm lock, which
can avoid similar "entry->x" uaf.

If 'mdelay(10)' is added before calling 'padata_find_next' in the
'padata_reorder' function, this issue could be reproduced easily with
ltp test (pcrypt_aead01).

This can be explained as bellow:

pcrypt_aead_encrypt
...
padata_do_parallel
refcount_inc(&pd->refcnt); // add refcnt
...
padata_do_serial
padata_reorder // pd
while (1) {
padata_find_next(pd, true); // using pd
queue_work_on
...
padata_serial_worker				crypto_del_alg
padata_put_pd_cnt // sub refcnt
						padata_free_shell
						padata_put_pd(ps->pd);
						// pd is freed
// loop again, but pd is freed
// call padata_find_next, UAF
}

In the padata_reorder function, when it loops in 'while', if the alg is
deleted, the refcnt may be decreased to 0 before entering
'padata_find_next', which leads to UAF.

As mentioned in [1], do_serial is supposed to be called with BHs disabled
and always happen under RCU protection, to address this issue, add
synchronize_rcu() in 'padata_free_shell' wait for all _do_serial calls
to finish.

hfsc_qlen_notify() is not idempotent either and not friendly
to its callers, like fq_codel_dequeue(). Let's make it idempotent
to ease qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog() callers' life:

1. update_vf() decreases cl->cl_nactive, so we can check whether it is
non-zero before calling it.

2. eltree_remove() always removes RB node cl->el_node, but we can use
   RB_EMPTY_NODE() + RB_CLEAR_NODE() to make it safe.

commit 667eeab

syzbot reported a null-ptr-deref in tipc_conn_close() during netns
dismantle. [0]

tipc_topsrv_stop() iterates tipc_net(net)->topsrv->conn_idr and calls
tipc_conn_close() for each tipc_conn.

The problem is that tipc_conn_close() is called after releasing the
IDR lock.

At the same time, there might be tipc_conn_recv_work() running and it
could call tipc_conn_close() for the same tipc_conn and release its
last ->kref.

Once we release the IDR lock in tipc_topsrv_stop(), there is no
guarantee that the tipc_conn is alive.

Let's hold the ref before releasing the lock and put the ref after
tipc_conn_close() in tipc_topsrv_stop().
