<id>urn:sha1:785c7be6361630070790f6235b696da156ac71b3</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 8a11ff0948b5ad09b71896b7ccc850625f9878d1 ]

The cffrml_receive() function extracts a length field from the packet
header and, when FCS is disabled, subtracts 2 from this length without
validating that len &gt;= 2.

If an attacker sends a malicious packet with a length field of 0 or 1
to an interface with FCS disabled, the subtraction causes an integer
underflow.

This can lead to memory exhaustion and kernel instability, potential
information disclosure if padding contains uninitialized kernel memory.

Fix this by validating that len &gt;= 2 before performing the subtraction.

[ Upstream commit b630c781bcf6ff87657146661816d0d30a902139 ]

I tried to fix the stack usage in this function a couple of years ago,
but there is still a problem with the latest gcc versions in some
configurations:

net/caif/cfctrl.c:553:1: error: the frame size of 1296 bytes is larger than 1280 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]

Reduce this once again, with a separate cfctrl_link_setup() function that
holds the bulk of all the local variables. It also turns out that the
param[] array that takes up a large portion of the stack is write-only
and can be left out here.

[ Upstream commit 9781e98a97110f5e76999058368b4be76a788484 ]

syzbot reported use-after-free in cfusbl_device_notify() [1].  This
causes a stack trace like below:

When unregistering a net device, unregister_netdevice_many_notify()
sets the device's reg_state to NETREG_UNREGISTERING, calls notifiers
with NETDEV_UNREGISTER, and adds the device to the todo list.

Later on, devices in the todo list are processed by netdev_run_todo().
netdev_run_todo() waits devices' reference count become 1 while
rebdoadcasting NETDEV_UNREGISTER notification.

When cfusbl_device_notify() is called with NETDEV_UNREGISTER multiple
times, the parent device might be freed.  This could cause UAF.
Processing NETDEV_UNREGISTER multiple times also causes inbalance of
reference count for the module.

This patch fixes the issue by accepting only first NETDEV_UNREGISTER
notification.

commit 62ec33b44e0f7168ff2886520fec6fb62d03b5a3 upstream.

Christoph Paasch reported that commit b5fc29233d28 ("inet6: Remove
inet6_destroy_sock() in sk-&gt;sk_prot-&gt;destroy().") started triggering
WARN_ON_ONCE(sk-&gt;sk_forward_alloc) in sk_stream_kill_queues().  [0 - 2]
Also, we can reproduce it by a program in [3].

In the commit, we delay freeing ipv6_pinfo.pktoptions from sk-&gt;destroy()
to sk-&gt;sk_destruct(), so sk-&gt;sk_forward_alloc is no longer zero in
inet_csk_destroy_sock().

The same check has been in inet_sock_destruct() from at least v2.6,
we can just remove the WARN_ON_ONCE().  However, among the users of
sk_stream_kill_queues(), only CAIF is not calling inet_sock_destruct().
Thus, we add the same WARN_ON_ONCE() to caif_sock_destructor().

<content type='text'>
skb_recv_datagram() has two parameters 'flags' and 'noblock' that are
merged inside skb_recv_datagram() by 'flags | (noblock ? MSG_DONTWAIT : 0)'

As 'flags' may contain MSG_DONTWAIT as value most callers split the 'flags'
into 'flags' and 'noblock' with finally obsolete bit operations like this:

skb_recv_datagram(sk, flags &amp; ~MSG_DONTWAIT, flags &amp; MSG_DONTWAIT, &amp;rc);

And this is not even done consistently with the 'flags' parameter.

This patch removes the obsolete and costly splitting into two parameters
and only performs bit operations when really needed on the caller side.

One missing conversion thankfully reported by kernel test robot. I missed
to enable kunit tests to build the mctp code.
