[PATCH net] net/sched: Fix memory leak in tcindex_set_parms

From: Chen Zhongjin
Date: Wed Dec 07 2022 - 22:25:28 EST


syzkaller reported a memleak:
https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=e061e6cd46417ee6566dc249d8f982c0b5977a52

unreferenced object 0xffff888107813900 (size 256):
backtrace:
kcalloc include/linux/slab.h:636 [inline]
tcf_exts_init include/net/pkt_cls.h:250 [inline]
tcindex_set_parms+0xa7/0xbe0 net/sched/cls_tcindex.c:342
tcindex_change+0xdf/0x120 net/sched/cls_tcindex.c:553
tc_new_tfilter+0x4f2/0x1100 net/sched/cls_api.c:2147
...

The reproduce calls tc_new_tfilter() continuously:

tc_new_tfilter()...
tcindex_set_parms()
tcf_exts_init(&e, ...) // alloc e->actions
tcf_exts_change(&r->exts, &e)

tc_new_tfilter()...
tcindex_set_parms()
old_r = r // same as first r
tcindex_filter_result_init(old_r, cp, net);
// old_r is holding e->actions but here it calls memset(old_r, 0)
// so the previous e->actions is leaked

So here tcf_exts_destroy() should be called to free old_r->exts.actions
before memset(old_r, 0) sets it to NULL.
