[PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 045/126] tcp: initialize tp->copied_seq in case of cross SYN connection

From: Luis Henriques
Date: Wed Jan 06 2016 - 05:39:30 EST


3.16.7-ckt22 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 142a2e7ece8d8ac0e818eb2c91f99ca894730e2a upstream.

Dmitry provided a syzkaller (http://github.com/google/syzkaller)
generated program that triggers the WARNING at
net/ipv4/tcp.c:1729 in tcp_recvmsg() :

WARN_ON(tp->copied_seq != tp->rcv_nxt &&
!(flags & (MSG_PEEK | MSG_TRUNC)));

His program is specifically attempting a Cross SYN TCP exchange,
that we support (for the pleasure of hackers ?), but it looks we
lack proper tcp->copied_seq initialization.

Thanks again Dmitry for your report and testings.
