[PATCH v4 net 1/5] tcp/udp: Fix memory leak in ipv6_renew_options().

From: Kuniyuki Iwashima
Date: Tue Oct 04 2022 - 13:39:40 EST


syzbot reported a memory leak [0] related to IPV6_ADDRFORM.

The scenario is that while one thread is converting an IPv6 socket into
IPv4 with IPV6_ADDRFORM, another thread calls do_ipv6_setsockopt() and
allocates memory to inet6_sk(sk)->XXX after conversion.

Then, the converted sk with (tcp|udp)_prot never frees the IPv6 resources,
which inet6_destroy_sock() should have cleaned up.

setsockopt(IPV6_ADDRFORM) setsockopt(IPV6_DSTOPTS)
+-----------------------+ +----------------------+
- do_ipv6_setsockopt(sk, ...)
- lock_sock(sk) - do_ipv6_setsockopt(sk, ...)
- WRITE_ONCE(sk->sk_prot, &tcp_prot) ^._ called via tcpv6_prot
- xchg(&np->opt, NULL) before WRITE_ONCE()
- txopt_put(opt)
- release_sock(sk)
- lock_sock(sk)
- ipv6_set_opt_hdr(sk, ...)
- ipv6_update_options(sk, opt)
- xchg(&inet6_sk(sk)->opt, opt)
^._ opt is never freed.

- release_sock(sk)

Since IPV6_DSTOPTS allocates options under lock_sock(), we can avoid this
memory leak by testing whether sk_family is changed by IPV6_ADDRFORM after
acquiring the lock.

This issue exists from the initial commit between IPV6_ADDRFORM and
IPV6_PKTOPTIONS.
