commit ed7f2afdd0e043a397677e597ced0830b83ba0b3 upstream.

The cited commit missed to check against the validity of the frame length
in the tap_get_user_xdp() path, which could cause a corrupted skb to be
sent downstack. Even before the skb is transmitted, the
tap_get_user_xdp()--&gt;skb_set_network_header() may assume the size is more
than ETH_HLEN. Once transmitted, this could either cause out-of-bound
access beyond the actual length, or confuse the underlayer with incorrect
or inconsistent header length in the skb metadata.

In the alternative path, tap_get_user() already prohibits short frame which
has the length less than Ethernet header size from being transmitted.

This is to drop any frame shorter than the Ethernet header size just like
how tap_get_user() does.

<title>net: tap_open(): set sk_uid from current_fsuid()</title>

commit 5c9241f3ceab3257abe2923a59950db0dc8bb737 upstream.

Commit 66b2c338adce initializes the "sk_uid" field in the protocol socket
(struct sock) from the "/dev/tapX" device node's owner UID. Per original
commit 86741ec25462 ("net: core: Add a UID field to struct sock.",
2016-11-04), that's wrong: the idea is to cache the UID of the userspace
process that creates the socket. Commit 86741ec25462 mentions socket() and
accept(); with "tap", the action that creates the socket is
open("/dev/tapX").

Therefore the device node's owner UID is irrelevant. In most cases,
"/dev/tapX" will be owned by root, so in practice, commit 66b2c338adce has
no observable effect:

- before, "sk_uid" would be zero, due to undefined behavior
  (CVE-2023-1076),

- after, "sk_uid" would be zero, due to "/dev/tapX" being owned by root.

What matters is the (fs)UID of the process performing the open(), so cache
that in "sk_uid".

[ Upstream commit 4063384ef762cc5946fc7a3f89879e76c6ec51e2 ]

Before blamed commit, pskb_may_pull() was used instead
of skb_header_pointer() in __vlan_get_protocol() and friends.

Few callers depended on skb-&gt;head being populated with MAC header,
syzbot caught one of them (skb_mac_gso_segment())

Add vlan_get_protocol_and_depth() to make the intent clearer
and use it where sensible.

This is a more generic fix than commit e9d3f80935b6
("net/af_packet: make sure to pull mac header") which was
dealing with a similar issue.

[ Upstream commit 66b2c338adce580dfce2199591e65e2bab889cff ]

sock_init_data() assumes that the `struct socket` passed in input is
contained in a `struct socket_alloc` allocated with sock_alloc().
However, tap_open() passes a `struct socket` embedded in a `struct
tap_queue` allocated with sk_alloc().
This causes a type confusion when issuing a container_of() with
SOCK_INODE() in sock_init_data() which results in assigning a wrong
sk_uid to the `struct sock` in input.
On default configuration, the type confused field overlaps with
padding bytes between `int vnet_hdr_sz` and `struct tap_dev __rcu
*tap` in `struct tap_queue`, which makes the uid of all tap sockets 0,
i.e., the root one.
Fix the assignment by using sock_init_data_uid().

<title>net: tap: NULL pointer derefence in dev_parse_header_protocol when skb-&gt;dev is null</title>

<id>urn:sha1:4f61f133f354853bc394ec7d6028adb9b02dd701</id>
<content type='text'>
Fixes a NULL pointer derefence bug triggered from tap driver.
When tap_get_user calls virtio_net_hdr_to_skb the skb-&gt;dev is null
(in tap.c skb-&gt;dev is set after the call to virtio_net_hdr_to_skb)
virtio_net_hdr_to_skb calls dev_parse_header_protocol which
needs skb-&gt;dev field to be valid.

The line that trigers the bug is in dev_parse_header_protocol
(dev is at offset 0x10 from skb and is stored in RAX register)
  if (!dev-&gt;header_ops || !dev-&gt;header_ops-&gt;parse_protocol)
  22e1:   mov    0x10(%rbx),%rax
  22e5:	  mov    0x230(%rax),%rax

Setting skb-&gt;dev before the call in tap.c fixes the issue.

<content type='text'>
The TAP can be used as vhost-net backend. E.g., the tap_handle_frame() is
the interface to forward the skb from TAP to vhost-net/virtio-net.

However, there are many "goto drop" in the TAP driver. Therefore, the
kfree_skb_reason() is involved at each "goto drop" to help userspace
ftrace/ebpf to track the reason for the loss of packets.

The below reasons are introduced:

- SKB_DROP_REASON_SKB_CSUM
- SKB_DROP_REASON_SKB_GSO_SEG
- SKB_DROP_REASON_SKB_UCOPY_FAULT
- SKB_DROP_REASON_DEV_HDR
- SKB_DROP_REASON_FULL_RING

In patch [1], tun_msg_ctl was added to allow pass batched xdp buffers to
tun_sendmsg. Although we donot use msg_controllen in this path, we should
check msg_controllen to make sure the caller pass a valid msg_ctl.

<content type='text'>
dev_ifsioc_locked() is called with only RCU read lock, so when
there is a parallel writer changing the mac address, it could
get a partially updated mac address, as shown below:

Thread 1			Thread 2
// eth_commit_mac_addr_change()
memcpy(dev-&gt;dev_addr, addr-&gt;sa_data, ETH_ALEN);
				// dev_ifsioc_locked()
				memcpy(ifr-&gt;ifr_hwaddr.sa_data,
					dev-&gt;dev_addr,...);

Close this race condition by guarding them with a RW semaphore,
like netdev_get_name(). We can not use seqlock here as it does not
allow blocking. The writers already take RTNL anyway, so this does
not affect the slow path. To avoid bothering existing
dev_set_mac_address() callers in drivers, introduce a new wrapper
just for user-facing callers on ioctl and rtnetlink paths.

Note, bonding also changes slave mac addresses but that requires
a separate patch due to the complexity of bonding code.
