[PATCH bpf] bpf: refresh seg6local SRH pointer after skb pull

From: Weiming Shi

Date: Mon Sep 07 2026 - 15:24:55 EST


An LWT_SEG6LOCAL program can invalidate its cached SRH with
bpf_lwt_seg6_adjust_srh() and then call bpf_skb_pull_data(). The latter
may reallocate skb->head, leaving the per-CPU SRH pointer dangling.
Post-program SRH validation then writes through that pointer.

BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in seg6_bpf_has_valid_srh (net/ipv6/seg6_local.c:1411)
Write of size 1
seg6_bpf_has_valid_srh (net/ipv6/seg6_local.c:1411)
input_action_end_bpf (net/ipv6/seg6_local.c:1463)
seg6_local_input_core (net/ipv6/seg6_local.c:1630)
seg6_local_input (net/ipv6/seg6_local.c:1639)
lwtunnel_input (net/core/lwtunnel.c:466)
ipv6_rcv (net/ipv6/ip6_input.c:351)

Give LWT_SEG6LOCAL its own bpf_skb_pull_data() implementation. Save
the cached SRH offset before the skb operation and rebuild the pointer
from the current skb->data afterwards. Since pulling data can replace
storage but does not change packet layout, this preserves the identity
of the cached SRH even when multiple Routing Headers are present.

Refresh the pointer even on error because __pskb_pull_tail() can replace
the head before a later step fails. Preserve the pending hdrlen and valid
state so SRH validation semantics remain unchanged.
