Hi All,The -EFAULT is the bug meaning that we were trying to read an consumed skb.
I am not able to reproduce the issue. I have run the C program at least
100 times in a loop. In the I do get an EFAULT, not sure if that is
intentional or not but no panic. Should I be doing something
differently? The kernel version I am using is
v6.11-rc6-70-gc763c4339688. Later I can try with the exact version.
But the first bug is in recvfrom() that shouldn't be able to read OOB skb
without MSG_OOB, which doesn't clear unix_sk(sk)->oob_skb, and later
something bad happens.
socketpair(AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0, [3, 4]) = 0
sendmsg(4, {msg_name=NULL, msg_namelen=0, msg_iov=[{iov_base="\333", iov_len=1}], msg_iovlen=1, msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, MSG_OOB|MSG_DONTWAIT) = 1
recvmsg(3, {msg_name=NULL, msg_namelen=0, msg_iov=NULL, msg_iovlen=0, msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=MSG_OOB}, MSG_OOB|MSG_WAITFORONE) = 1
sendmsg(4, {msg_name=NULL, msg_namelen=0, msg_iov=[{iov_base="\21", iov_len=1}], msg_iovlen=1, msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, MSG_OOB|MSG_NOSIGNAL|MSG_MORE) = 1
recvfrom(3, "\21", 125, MSG_DONTROUTE|MSG_TRUNC|MSG_DONTWAIT, NULL, NULL) = 1recvmsg(3, {msg_namelen=0}, MSG_OOB|MSG_ERRQUEUE) = -1 EFAULT (Bad address)
I posted a fix officially:
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20240905193240.17565-5-kuniyu@xxxxxxxxxx/__;!!ACWV5N9M2RV99hQ!IJeFvLdaXIRN2ABsMFVaKOEjI3oZb2kUr6ld6ZRJCPAVum4vuyyYwUP6_5ZH9mGZiJDn6vrbxBAOqYI$
with the user provided address of the buffer, not the kernel buffer.
something similar failed.
But this time, if you turn KASAN off, you'll see the last recvmsg()
returns 1-byte garbage instead of -EFAULT, so actually KASAN worked
on your host, I guess.
