There is a racing condition between workqueue created when enabling
bearer and another thread created when disabling bearer right after
that as follow:

   mon-&gt;self-&gt;addr = tipc_own_addr(net); |
   write_unlock_bh(&amp;mon-&gt;lock);          |

}                                        |

'mon-&gt;self' is set to NULL in disabling_bearer thread and dereferenced
later in enabling_bearer thread.

This commit fixes this issue by validating 'mon-&gt;self' before assigning
node address to it.

<id>urn:sha1:3c7e5943553594f68bbc070683db6bb6f6e9e78e</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 9aa422ad326634b76309e8ff342c246800621216 upstream.

The function tipc_mon_rcv() allows a node to receive and process
domain_record structs from peer nodes to track their views of the
network topology.

This patch verifies that the number of members in a received domain
record does not exceed the limit defined by MAX_MON_DOMAIN, something
that may otherwise lead to a stack overflow.

tipc_mon_rcv() is called from the function tipc_link_proto_rcv(), where
we are reading a 32 bit message data length field into a uint16.  To
avert any risk of bit overflow, we add an extra sanity check for this in
that function.  We cannot see that happen with the current code, but
future designers being unaware of this risk, may introduce it by
allowing delivery of very large (&gt; 64k) sk buffers from the bearer
layer.  This potential problem was identified by Eric Dumazet.

This fixes CVE-2022-0435

Fix this by adding a sanity check to make sure valid memory

<content type='text'>
In commit 25b0b9c4e835 ("tipc: handle collisions of 32-bit node address
hash values"), the 32-bit node address only generated after one second
trial period expired. However the self's addr in struct tipc_monitor do
not update according to node address generated. This lead to it is
always zero as initial value. As result, sorting algorithm using this
value does not work as expected, neither neighbor monitoring framework.

In this commit, we add a fix to update self's addr when 32-bit node
address generated.

<title>netlink: make nla_nest_start() add NLA_F_NESTED flag</title>

<id>urn:sha1:ae0be8de9a53cda3505865c11826d8ff0640237c</id>
<content type='text'>
Even if the NLA_F_NESTED flag was introduced more than 11 years ago, most
netlink based interfaces (including recently added ones) are still not
setting it in kernel generated messages. Without the flag, message parsers
not aware of attribute semantics (e.g. wireshark dissector or libmnl's
mnl_nlmsg_fprintf()) cannot recognize nested attributes and won't display
the structure of their contents.

Unfortunately we cannot just add the flag everywhere as there may be
userspace applications which check nlattr::nla_type directly rather than
through a helper masking out the flags. Therefore the patch renames
nla_nest_start() to nla_nest_start_noflag() and introduces nla_nest_start()
as a wrapper adding NLA_F_NESTED. The calls which add NLA_F_NESTED manually
are rewritten to use nla_nest_start().

Except for changes in include/net/netlink.h, the patch was generated using
this semantic patch:

@@ expression E1, E2; @@
-nla_nest_start(E1, E2)
+nla_nest_start_noflag(E1, E2)

@@ expression E1, E2; @@
-nla_nest_start_noflag(E1, E2 | NLA_F_NESTED)

<title>tipc: fix infinite loop when dumping link monitor summary</title>

<id>urn:sha1:36a50a989ee8267588de520b8704b85f045a3220</id>
<content type='text'>
When configuring the number of used bearers to MAX_BEARER and issuing
command "tipc link monitor summary", the command enters infinite loop
in user space.

This issue happens because function tipc_nl_node_dump_monitor() returns
the wrong 'prev_bearer' value when all potential monitors have been
scanned.

The correct behavior is to always try to scan all monitors until either
the netlink message is full, in which case we return the bearer identity
of the affected monitor, or we continue through the whole bearer array
until we can return MAX_BEARERS. This solution also caters for the case
where there may be gaps in the bearer array.

The neighbor monitor employs a threshold, default set to 32 peer nodes,
where it activates the "Overlapping Neighbor Monitoring" algorithm.
Below that threshold, monitoring is full-mesh, and no "domain records"
are passed between the nodes.

Because of this, a node never received a peer's ack that it has received
the most recent update of the own domain. Hence, the field 'acked_gen'
in struct tipc_monitor_state remains permamently at zero, whereas the
own domain generation is incremented for each added or removed peer.

This has the effect that the function tipc_mon_get_state() always sets
the field 'probing' in struct tipc_monitor_state true, again leading the
tipc_link_timeout() of the link in question to always send out a probe,
even when link-&gt;silent_intv_count is zero.

This is functionally harmless, but leads to some unncessary probing,
which can easily be eliminated by setting the 'probing' field of the
said struct correctly in such cases.

At the same time, we explictly invalidate the sent domain records when
the algorithm is not activated. This will eliminate any risk that an
invalid domain record might be inadverently accepted by the peer.
