net: gro: don't merge zcopy skbs

2026-06-01T15:54:54+00:00

[ Upstream commit 4db79a322db8c97f7b73b8a347395ef4d685eb40 ] skb_gro_receive() can currently copy frags between the source and GRO skb, without checking the zerocopy status, and in particular the SKBFL_MANAGED_FRAG_REFS flag. When SKBFL_MANAGED_FRAG_REFS is set, the skb doesn't hold a reference on the pages in shinfo->frags. Appending those frags to another skb's frags without fixing up the page refcount can lead to UAF. When either the last skb in the GRO chain (the one we would append frags to) or the source skb is zerocopy, don't merge the skbs.

bpf, skmsg: fix verdict sk_data_ready racing with ktls rx

2026-06-01T15:54:52+00:00

[ Upstream commit ddf8029623a1af20e984c040e89ff918158397ab ] sk_psock_strp_data_ready() already checks tls_sw_has_ctx_rx() and defers to psock->saved_data_ready when a TLS RX context is present, avoiding a conflict with the TLS strparser's ownership of the receive queue (commit e91de6afa81c, "bpf: Fix running sk_skb program types with ktls"). sk_psock_verdict_data_ready() has no equivalent guard. When a socket is inserted into a sockmap (BPF_SK_SKB_VERDICT) before TLS RX is configured, tls_sw_strparser_arm() saves sk_psock_verdict_data_ready as rx_ctx->saved_data_ready. On data arrival: tls_data_ready -> tls_strp_data_ready -> tls_rx_msg_ready -> saved_data_ready() = sk_psock_verdict_data_ready() -> tcp_read_skb() drains sk_receive_queue via __skb_unlink() without calling tcp_eat_skb(), so copied_seq is not advanced. tls_strp_msg_load() then finds tcp_inq() >= full_len (stale), calls tcp_recv_skb() on the now-empty queue, hits WARN_ON_ONCE(!first), and returns with rx_ctx->strp.anchor.frag_list pointing at a psock-owned (potentially freed) skb. tls_decrypt_sg() subsequently walks that frag_list: use-after-free. Apply the same fix as sk_psock_strp_data_ready(): if a TLS RX context is present, call psock->saved_data_ready (sock_def_readable) to wake recv() waiters and return immediately, leaving the receive queue untouched. TLS retains sole ownership of the queue and decrypts the record normally through tls_sw_recvmsg().

net: napi: Avoid gro timer misfiring at end of busypoll

[ Upstream commit 58e2330bd45572a6e3d46ea94cf7a9641f43591a ] When in irq deferral mode (defer-hard-irqs > 0), a short enough gro-flush timeout can trigger before NAPI_STATE_SCHED is cleared if the last poll in busy_poll_stop() takes too long. This can have the effect of leaving the queue stuck with interrupts disabled and no timer armed which results in a tx timeout if there is no subsequent busypoll cycle.

net: devmem: reject dma-buf bind with non-page-aligned size or SG length

commit 4eb82ba543421e9e38cc14e4e82058b78850df50 upstream. net_devmem_bind_dmabuf() trusts dmabuf->size and sg_dma_len() to be PAGE_SIZE multiples without checking: - tx_vec is sized dmabuf->size / PAGE_SIZE, and net_devmem_get_niov_at() only bounds-checks virt_addr < dmabuf->size before indexing tx_vec[virt_addr / PAGE_SIZE]. With size = N*PAGE_SIZE + r (1 <= r < PAGE_SIZE), sendmsg() at iov_base = N*PAGE_SIZE passes the bound check and reads tx_vec[N] -- one past. - owner->area.num_niovs = len / PAGE_SIZE while gen_pool_add_owner() covers the full byte len, so a non-page-multiple non-final sg desyncs num_niovs from the gen_pool region for every later sg, on both RX and TX. dma-buf does not require page-aligned sizes, so the bind path has to enforce what its own indexing assumes. Reject both with -EINVAL. The size check is TX-only (only tx_vec is sized off dmabuf->size); the SG-length check covers both directions.

net: skbuff: propagate shared-frag marker through frag-transfer helpers

2026-05-23T11:09:43+00:00

commit 48f6a5356a33dd78e7144ae1faef95ffc990aae0 upstream. Two frag-transfer helpers (__pskb_copy_fclone() and skb_shift()) fail to propagate the SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG bit in skb_shinfo()->flags when moving frags from source to destination. __pskb_copy_fclone() defers the rest of the shinfo metadata to skb_copy_header() after copying frag descriptors, but that helper only carries over gso_{size,segs, type} and never touches skb_shinfo()->flags; skb_shift() moves frag descriptors directly and leaves flags untouched. As a result, the destination skb keeps a reference to the same externally-owned or page-cache-backed pages while reporting skb_has_shared_frag() as false. The mismatch is harmful in any in-place writer that uses skb_has_shared_frag() to decide whether shared pages must be detoured through skb_cow_data(). ESP input is one such writer (esp4.c, esp6.c), and a single nft 'dup to ' rule -- or any other nf_dup_ipv4() / xt_TEE caller -- is enough to land a pskb_copy()'d skb in esp_input() with the marker stripped, letting an unprivileged user write into the page cache of a root-owned read-only file via authencesn-ESN stray writes. Set SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG on the destination whenever frag descriptors were actually moved from the source. skb_copy() and skb_copy_expand() share skb_copy_header() too but linearize all paged data into freshly allocated head storage and emerge with nr_frags == 0, so skb_has_shared_frag() returns false on its own; they need no change. The same omission exists in skb_gro_receive() and skb_gro_receive_list(). The former moves the incoming skb's frag descriptors into the accumulator's last sub-skb via two paths (a direct frag-move loop and the head_frag + memcpy path); the latter chains the incoming skb whole onto p's frag_list. Downstream skb_segment() reads only skb_shinfo(p)->flags, and skb_segment_list() reuses each sub-skb's shinfo as the nskb -- both p and lp must carry the marker. The same omission also exists in tcp_clone_payload(), which builds an MTU probe skb by moving frag descriptors from skbs on sk_write_queue into a freshly allocated nskb. The helper falls into the same family and warrants the same fix for consistency; no TCP TX-side in-place writer is currently known to reach a user page through this gap, but a future consumer depending on the marker would regress silently. The same omission exists in skb_segment(): the per-iteration flag merge takes only head_skb's flag, and the inner switch that rebinds frag_skb to list_skb on head_skb-frags exhaustion does not fold the new frag_skb's flag into nskb. Fold frag_skb's flag at both sites so segments drawing frags from frag_list members carry the marker.

net: skbuff: preserve shared-frag marker during coalescing

2026-05-23T11:09:43+00:00

commit f84eca5817390257cef78013d0112481c503b4a3 upstream. skb_try_coalesce() can attach paged frags from @from to @to. If @from has SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG set, the resulting @to skb can contain the same externally-owned or page-cache-backed frags, but the shared-frag marker is currently lost. That breaks the invariant relied on by later in-place writers. In particular, ESP input checks skb_has_shared_frag() before deciding whether an uncloned nonlinear skb can skip skb_cow_data(). If TCP receive coalescing has moved shared frags into an unmarked skb, ESP can see skb_has_shared_frag() as false and decrypt in place over page-cache backed frags. Propagate SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG when skb_try_coalesce() transfers paged frags. The tailroom copy path does not need the marker because it copies bytes into @to's linear data rather than transferring frag descriptors.

page_pool: fix memory-provider leak in page_pool_create_percpu() error path

2026-05-23T11:09:35+00:00

[ Upstream commit 5ef343614db766acdc01c56d66e780a1b43c6ac6 ] When page_pool_create_percpu() fails on page_pool_list(), it falls through to its err_uninit: label, which calls page_pool_uninit(). At that point page_pool_init() has already taken two references when the user requested PP_FLAG_ALLOW_UNREADABLE_NETMEM: pool->mp_ops->init(pool) static_branch_inc(&page_pool_mem_providers); Neither is undone by page_pool_uninit(); both are only undone by __page_pool_destroy() (success-side teardown). The error path therefore leaks the per-provider reference taken by mp_ops->init (io_zcrx_ifq->refs in the io_uring zcrx provider, the dmabuf binding refcount in the devmem provider) plus one increment of the page_pool_mem_providers static branch on every failure of xa_alloc_cyclic() inside page_pool_list(). The leaked io_zcrx_ifq->refs in turn pins everything io_zcrx_ifq_free() would release on cleanup: ifq->user (uid), ifq->mm_account (mmdrop), ifq->dev (device refcount), ifq->netdev_tracker (netdev refcount), and the rbuf region. The leaked static branch increment forces all subsequent page_pool_alloc_netmems() and page_pool_return_page() callers to take the slow mp_ops branch for the lifetime of the kernel. Reachable via the io_uring zcrx path: io_uring_register(IORING_REGISTER_ZCRX_IFQ) /* CAP_NET_ADMIN */ -> __io_uring_register -> io_register_zcrx -> zcrx_register_netdev -> netif_mp_open_rxq -> driver ndo_queue_mem_alloc -> page_pool_create_percpu -> page_pool_init succeeds (mp_ops->init runs, branch++) -> page_pool_list fails (xa_alloc_cyclic -ENOMEM) -> goto err_uninit <-- leak The same shape applies to the devmem dmabuf provider via mp_dmabuf_devmem_init()/mp_dmabuf_devmem_destroy(). Restore the cleanup symmetry by moving the mp_ops->destroy() and static_branch_dec() calls out of __page_pool_destroy() and into page_pool_uninit(), so page_pool_uninit() is again the strict inverse of page_pool_init(). page_pool_uninit() has only two callers (the err_uninit: path and __page_pool_destroy()), so this preserves the single-call invariant on the success path while fixing the err path. The error path of page_pool_init() itself still skips the mp_ops cleanup correctly: mp_ops->init is the last action that takes a reference before page_pool_init() returns 0, so when it returns an error neither the refcount nor the static branch has been touched. Triggering the bug requires xa_alloc_cyclic() to fail with -ENOMEM, which under normal GFP_KERNEL retry behaviour is rare. It is deterministic under CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION with fail_page_alloc / xa fault injection, or under sustained memory pressure. The leak is silent: there is no warning, and the released kernel build continues running with a permanently-incremented static branch.

netpoll: fix IPv6 local-address corruption

2026-05-23T11:09:30+00:00

[ Upstream commit 3bc179bc7146c26c9dff75d2943d10528274e301 ] netpoll_setup() decides whether to auto-populate the local source address by testing np->local_ip.ip, which only inspects the first 4 bytes of the union inet_addr storage. For an IPv6 netpoll whose caller-supplied local address has a zero high-32 bits (::1, ::, IPv4-mapped ::ffff:a.b.c.d, etc.), this misdetects the address as unset (which they are not, but the first 4 bytes are empty), calls netpoll_take_ipv6() and overwrites it with whatever matching link-local/global address the device happens to expose first. Introduce a helper netpoll_local_ip_unset() that picks the correct family-aware test (ipv6_addr_any() for IPv6, !.ip for IPv4) and use it from netpoll_setup(). Reproducer is something like: echo "::2" > local_ip echo 1 > enabled cat local_ip # before this fix: 2001:db8::1 (caller-supplied ::2 was clobbered) # after this fix: ::2 Fixes: b7394d2429c1 ("netpoll: prepare for ipv6") Signed-off-by: Breno Leitao Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260424-netpoll_fix-v1-1-3a55348c625f@debian.org Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin
