sctp: detect and prevent references to a freed transport in sendmsg

2025-05-02T05:39:16+00:00

commit f1a69a940de58b16e8249dff26f74c8cc59b32be upstream.

sctp_sendmsg() re-uses associations and transports when possible by
doing a lookup based on the socket endpoint and the message destination
address, and then sctp_sendmsg_to_asoc() sets the selected transport in
all the message chunks to be sent.

There's a possible race condition if another thread triggers the removal
of that selected transport, for instance, by explicitly unbinding an
address with setsockopt(SCTP_SOCKOPT_BINDX_REM), after the chunks have
been set up and before the message is sent. This can happen if the send
buffer is full, during the period when the sender thread temporarily
releases the socket lock in sctp_wait_for_sndbuf().

This causes the access to the transport data in
sctp_outq_select_transport(), when the association outqueue is flushed,
to result in a use-after-free read.

This change avoids this scenario by having sctp_transport_free() signal
the freeing of the transport, tagging it as "dead". In order to do this,
the patch restores the "dead" bit in struct sctp_transport, which was
removed in
commit 47faa1e4c50e ("sctp: remove the dead field of sctp_transport").

Then, in the scenario where the sender thread has released the socket
lock in sctp_wait_for_sndbuf(), the bit is checked again after
re-acquiring the socket lock to detect the deletion. This is done while
holding a reference to the transport to prevent it from being freed in
the process.

If the transport was deleted while the socket lock was relinquished,
sctp_sendmsg_to_asoc() will return -EAGAIN to let userspace retry the
send.

The bug was found by a private syzbot instance (see the error report [1]
and the C reproducer that triggers it [2]).

net: add dev_net_rcu() helper

[ Upstream commit 482ad2a4ace2740ca0ff1cbc8f3c7f862f3ab507 ]

dev->nd_net can change, readers should either
use rcu_read_lock() or RTNL.

We currently use a generic helper, dev_net() with
no debugging support. We probably have many hidden bugs.

Add dev_net_rcu() helper for callers using rcu_read_lock()
protection.

net: add exit_batch_rtnl() method

2025-02-01T17:18:49+00:00

[ Upstream commit fd4f101edbd9f99567ab2adb1f2169579ede7c13 ]

Many (struct pernet_operations)->exit_batch() methods have
to acquire rtnl.

In presence of rtnl mutex pressure, this makes cleanup_net()
very slow.

This patch adds a new exit_batch_rtnl() method to reduce
number of rtnl acquisitions from cleanup_net().

exit_batch_rtnl() handlers are called while rtnl is locked,
and devices to be killed can be queued in a list provided
as their second argument.

A single unregister_netdevice_many() is called right
before rtnl is released.

exit_batch_rtnl() handlers are called before ->exit() and
->exit_batch() handlers.

tcp/dccp: allow a connection when sk_max_ack_backlog is zero

2025-02-01T17:18:45+00:00

[ Upstream commit 3479c7549fb1dfa7a1db4efb7347c7b8ef50de4b ]

If the backlog of listen() is set to zero, sk_acceptq_is_full() allows
one connection to be made, but inet_csk_reqsk_queue_is_full() does not.
When the net.ipv4.tcp_syncookies is zero, inet_csk_reqsk_queue_is_full()
will cause an immediate drop before the sk_acceptq_is_full() check in
tcp_conn_request(), resulting in no connection can be made.

This patch tries to keep consistent with 64a146513f8f ("[NET]: Revert
incorrect accept queue backlog changes.").

netfilter: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array member

2025-01-09T12:23:35+00:00

[ Upstream commit 6daf14140129d30207ed6a0a69851fa6a3636bda ]

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:

struct foo {
        int stuff;
        struct boo array[];
};

By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.

Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:

"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]

Lastly, fix checkpatch.pl warning
WARNING: __aligned(size) is preferred over __attribute__((aligned(size)))
in net/bridge/netfilter/ebtables.c

This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.
