netfilter: nft_fib: fix stale stack leak via the OIFNAME register

2026-06-19T11:21:47+00:00

[ Upstream commit ab185e0c4fb82dfba6fb86f8271e06f931d9c64c ] For NFT_FIB_RESULT_OIFNAME the destination register is declared with len = IFNAMSIZ (four 32-bit registers), but on the lookup-fail, RTN_LOCAL and oif-mismatch paths nft_fib{4,6}_eval() only writes one register via "*dest = 0". The remaining three registers are left as whatever was on the stack in nft_do_chain()'s struct nft_regs, and a downstream expression that loads the register span can leak that uninitialised kernel stack to userspace. The NFTA_FIB_F_PRESENT existence check has the same shape: it is only meaningful for NFT_FIB_RESULT_OIF, yet it was accepted for any result type while the eval stores a single byte via nft_reg_store8(), leaving the rest of the declared span stale. Fix both: - replace the bare "*dest = 0" in the eval with nft_fib_store_result(), which strscpy_pad()s the whole IFNAMSIZ for OIFNAME (and is already used on the other early-return path), and - restrict NFTA_FIB_F_PRESENT to NFT_FIB_RESULT_OIF and declare its destination as a single u8, so the marked span matches the one byte the eval writes.

netfilter: x_tables: avoid leaking percpu counter pointers

2026-06-19T11:21:37+00:00

[ Upstream commit f7f2fbb0e893a0238dc464f8d8c0f5609bec584f ] The native and compat get-entries paths copy the fixed rule entry header from the kernelized rule blob to userspace before overwriting the entry's counter fields with a sanitized counter snapshot. On SMP kernels, entry->counters.pcnt contains the percpu allocation address used by x_tables rule counters. A caller can provide a userspace buffer that faults during the initial fixed-header copy after pcnt has been copied but before the later sanitized counter copy runs. The syscall then returns -EFAULT while leaving the raw percpu pointer in userspace. Copy only the fixed entry prefix before counters from the kernelized rule blob, then copy the sanitized counter snapshot into the counter field. Apply this ordering to the IPv4, IPv6, and ARP native and compat get-entries implementations so a fault cannot expose the internal percpu counter pointer.

ip6_vti: fix incorrect tunnel matching in vti6_tnl_lookup()

2026-06-19T11:21:37+00:00

[ Upstream commit a5c0359f5cbc51a2e2b114d6041e0f3c73f903e9 ] In vti6_tnl_lookup(), when an exact match for a tunnel fails, the code falls back to searching for wildcard tunnels: - Tunnels matching the packet's local address, with any remote address wildcard remote). - Tunnels matching the packet's remote address, with any local address (wildcard local). However, vti6 stores all these different types of tunnels in the same hash table (ip6n->tnls_r_l) prone to hash collisions. The bug is that the fallback search loops in vti6_tnl_lookup() were missing checks to ensure that the candidate tunnel actually has a wildcard address.

ipv6: sit: reload inner IPv6 header after GSO offloads

2026-06-19T11:21:36+00:00

[ Upstream commit f0e42f0c4337b1f220de1ddd63f47197c7dee4de ] ipip6_tunnel_xmit() caches the inner IPv6 header pointer at function entry and continues using it after iptunnel_handle_offloads(). For GSO skbs, iptunnel_handle_offloads() calls skb_header_unclone(). When the skb header is cloned, skb_header_unclone() can call pskb_expand_head(), which may move the skb head. The pskb_expand_head() contract requires pointers into the skb header to be reloaded after the call. If the later skb_realloc_headroom() branch is not taken, SIT uses the stale iph6 pointer to read the inner hop limit and DS field. That can read from a freed skb head after the old head's remaining clone is released. Reload iph6 after the offload helper succeeds and before subsequent reads from the inner IPv6 header. Keep the existing reload after skb_realloc_headroom(), since that branch can also replace the skb.

xfrm: esp: restore combined single-frag length gate

2026-06-19T11:21:30+00:00

commit dfa0d7b0ff1eb6b2c416b8fdb9b4f2cefba57a40 upstream. The ESP out-of-place fast path appends the trailer in esp_output_head() before esp_output_tail() allocates the destination page frag. The head-side gate currently checks skb->data_len and tailen separately, but the tail code allocates a single destination frag from the combined post-trailer skb->data_len. Reject the page-frag fast path when the combined aligned length exceeds a page. Otherwise skb_page_frag_refill() may fall back to a single page while the destination sg still spans the combined skb->data_len. Restore this combined-length page gate for both IPv4 and IPv6.

xfrm: ah: use skb_to_full_sk in async output callbacks

2026-06-19T11:21:30+00:00

commit 79d8be262377f7112cfa3088dfc4142d5a2533f3 upstream. When AH output is offloaded to an asynchronous crypto provider (hardware accelerators such as AMD CCP, or a forced-async software shim used for testing), the digest completion fires ah_output_done() / ah6_output_done() on a workqueue. The egress skb at that point may have been originated by a TCP listener sending a SYN-ACK, which sets skb->sk to a request_sock via skb_set_owner_edemux(); it may also have been originated by an inet_timewait_sock retransmit. Neither is a full struct sock, and passing the raw skb->sk to xfrm_output_resume() then forwards a non-full socket through the rest of the xfrm output chain. xfrm_output_resume() and its downstream consumers expect a full sk where they dereference at all. The natural egress path through ah_output_done() does not crash today because the consumers that read past sock_common are either gated by sk_fullsock() or short-circuit on flags that are clear on a fresh request_sock; an exhaustive walk of the 50 most plausible consumers under sch_fq, dev_queue_xmit, netfilter, tc-egress and cgroup-egress BPF found no current unguarded deref. The bug is still a real type confusion that future consumer changes could turn into a memory-corruption primitive. This is the same bug class fixed for ESP in commit 1620c88887b1 ("xfrm: Fix the usage of skb->sk"). Apply the analogous fix to AH: convert skb->sk to a full socket pointer (or NULL) via skb_to_full_sk() before handing it to xfrm_output_resume(). The same async AH callbacks were touched recently for an independent ESN-related ICV layout bug in commit ec54093e6a8f ("xfrm: ah: account for ESN high bits in async callbacks"); the sk type-confusion addressed here is orthogonal. This patch is part of an ongoing audit of the AH callback paths; an ah_output ihl-validation hardening series is also currently under review on netdev. Reproduced under UML + KASAN + lockdep with a forced-async hmac(sha1) shim that registers at priority 9999 and wraps the sync in-tree hmac-sha1-lib. With the shim loaded, ah_output_done runs on every SYN-ACK egress through a transport-mode AH SA and skb->sk arrives as a request_sock (TCP_NEW_SYN_RECV); after this patch, xfrm_output_resume() receives the listener (the result of sk_to_full_sk()) and consumer derefs land on full-sock fields as intended.

ipv6: validate extension header length before copying to cmsg

2026-06-19T11:21:29+00:00

commit dd433671fef381fdaf7b530c631e6b782d66e224 upstream. ip6_datagram_recv_specific_ctl() builds IPV6_{HOPOPTS,DSTOPTS,RTHDR} cmsgs (and their IPV6_2292* legacy counterparts) by trusting the on-wire hdrlen byte (ptr[1]) when computing the put_cmsg() length. The length was validated only at parse time (ipv6_parse_hopopts(), etc.). An nftables payload-write expression can rewrite hdrlen after parsing and before the skb reaches recvmsg; the write itself is in-bounds but put_cmsg() then reads up to ((hdrlen+1) << 3) = 2040 bytes from an 8-byte header. nftables is reachable from an unprivileged user namespace, so this is an unprivileged slab-out-of-bounds read: BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in put_cmsg+0x3ac/0x540 put_cmsg+0x3ac/0x540 udpv6_recvmsg+0xca0/0x1250 sock_recvmsg+0xdf/0x190 ____sys_recvmsg+0x1b1/0x620 Add ipv6_get_exthdr_len() which validates that at least two bytes are accessible before reading the hdrlen field, then checks the computed length against skb_tail_pointer(skb), returning 0 on failure. Extension headers are kept in the linear skb area by pskb_may_pull() during input, so skb_tail_pointer() is the correct bound. Use ipv6_get_exthdr_len() at all non-AH call sites: the five standalone cmsg blocks (HbH, 2292HbH, 2292DSTOPTS x2, 2292RTHDR) and the three standard cases in the extension-header walk loop (DSTOPTS, ROUTING, default). AH retains an inline bounds check because its length formula differs ((ptr[1]+2)<<2). The walk loop also gets a pre-read bounds check at the top to validate ptr before any case accesses ptr[0] or ptr[1]. When the walk loop detects a corrupted header, return from the function instead of continuing to process later socket options.

ip6: vti: Use ip6_tnl.net in vti6_siocdevprivate().

2026-06-19T11:21:29+00:00

commit 8b484efd5cb4eeef9021a661e198edc5349dacf6 upstream. After patch 1/2 in this series, vti6_update() unlinks and relinks the tunnel through t->net. vti6_siocdevprivate() still uses dev_net(dev) for the collision lookup. For a tunnel moved through IFLA_NET_NS_FD, dev_net(dev) is the new netns, not t->net. SIOCCHGTUNNEL on a migrated tunnel then runs: net = dev_net(dev) /* migrated netns */ t = vti6_locate(net, &p1, false) /* misses target in t->net */ ... t = netdev_priv(dev) vti6_update(t, &p1, false) /* mutates t->net's hash */ A caller in the migrated netns picks params that match a tunnel in the creation netns. The lookup in dev_net(dev) finds nothing. vti6_update() prepends the migrated tunnel at the head of the creation netns hash bucket for those params. Later lookups in the creation netns resolve to the migrated device. xfrm receive delivers the matched packets through a device the caller controls. Reachable from an unprivileged user namespace (unshare --user --map-root-user --net). Cross tenant scope on container hosts. Switch the SIOCCHGTUNNEL path on a non fallback device to use t->net for the lookup. The lookup now matches the netns vti6_update() operates on. Also add ns_capable(self->net->user_ns, CAP_NET_ADMIN) before the lookup. The check at the top of the case is against dev_net(dev)->user_ns, which after migration is the attacker's netns. A caller there can pick params absent from self->net, the lookup returns NULL, t becomes self, and vti6_update() inserts the device into the creation netns hash. The new check requires CAP_NET_ADMIN in the creation netns user_ns too. SIOCADDTUNNEL and SIOCCHGTUNNEL on the fallback device keep dev_net(dev), which equals init_net there.
