Re: [PATCH] udp6: Fix race condition in udp6_sendmsg & connect

Paolo,


I don't think that we can just move sk_dst_set() call.

I think we can destroy dst of sendmsg task in this case.


Best regards,

Vlad.

Syzkaller got the following report:
BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in sk_setup_caps+0x621/0x690 net/core/sock.c:2018
Read of size 8 at addr ffff888027f82780 by task syz-executor276/3255

The function sk_setup_caps (called by ip6_sk_dst_store_flow->
ip6_dst_store) referenced already freed memory as this memory was
freed by parallel task in udpv6_sendmsg->ip6_sk_dst_lookup_flow->
sk_dst_check.

task1 (connect) task2 (udp6_sendmsg)
sk_setup_caps->sk_dst_set |
| sk_dst_check->
| sk_dst_set
| dst_release
sk_setup_caps references |
to already freed dst_entry|

The reason for this race condition is: udp6_sendmsg() calls
ip6_sk_dst_lookup() without lock for sock structure and tries to
allocate/add dst_entry structure to sock structure in parallel with
"connect" task.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with syzkaller.

Thank you for the detailed report!

Acquiring the socket lock in this fast-path is going to kill the xmit
performances, I think we can't do that.

What about something like the following instead? Does that addresses
the UaF? (completely untested, not even built ;) If so, feel free to
take it over.

Thanks.

Paolo
