[PATCH 3.16 271/306] packet: fix race condition in packet_set_ring

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Wed Feb 15 2017 - 18:12:45 EST


3.16.40-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Philip Pettersson <philip.pettersson@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 84ac7260236a49c79eede91617700174c2c19b0c upstream.

When packet_set_ring creates a ring buffer it will initialize a
struct timer_list if the packet version is TPACKET_V3. This value
can then be raced by a different thread calling setsockopt to
set the version to TPACKET_V1 before packet_set_ring has finished.

This leads to a use-after-free on a function pointer in the
struct timer_list when the socket is closed as the previously
initialized timer will not be deleted.

The bug is fixed by taking lock_sock(sk) in packet_setsockopt when
changing the packet version while also taking the lock at the start
of packet_set_ring.

Fixes: f6fb8f100b80 ("af-packet: TPACKET_V3 flexible buffer implementation.")
