tipc: fix divide-by-zero in tipc_sk_filter_connect()

2026-03-19T15:08:29+00:00

commit 6c5a9baa15de240e747263aba435a0951da8d8d2 upstream. A user can set conn_timeout to any value via setsockopt(TIPC_CONN_TIMEOUT), including values less than 4. When a SYN is rejected with TIPC_ERR_OVERLOAD and the retry path in tipc_sk_filter_connect() executes: delay %= (tsk->conn_timeout / 4); If conn_timeout is in the range [0, 3], the integer division yields 0, and the modulo operation triggers a divide-by-zero exception, causing a kernel oops/panic. Fix this by clamping conn_timeout to a minimum of 4 at the point of use in tipc_sk_filter_connect().

tipc: fix RCU dereference race in tipc_aead_users_dec()

2026-03-04T12:21:23+00:00

[ Upstream commit 6a65c0cb0ff20b3cbc5f1c87b37dd22cdde14a1c ] tipc_aead_users_dec() calls rcu_dereference(aead) twice: once to store in 'tmp' for the NULL check, and again inside the atomic_add_unless() call. Use the already-dereferenced 'tmp' pointer consistently, matching the correct pattern used in tipc_aead_users_inc() and tipc_aead_users_set().

tipc: fix duplicate publication key in tipc_service_insert_publ()

2026-03-04T12:20:48+00:00

[ Upstream commit 3aa677625c8fad39989496c51bcff3872c1f16f1 ] TIPC uses named table to store TIPC services represented by type and instance. Each time an application calls TIPC API bind() to bind a type/instance to a socket, an entry is created and inserted into the named table. It looks like this: named table: key1, entry1 (type, instance ...) key2, entry2 (type, instance ...) In the above table, each entry represents a route for sending data from one socket to the other. For all publications originated from the same node, the key is UNIQUE to identify each entry. It is calculated by this formula: key = socket portid + number of bindings + 1 (1) where: - socket portid: unique and calculated by using linux kernel function get_random_u32_below(). So, the value is randomized. - number of bindings: the number of times a type/instance pair is bound to a socket. This number is linearly increased, starting from 0. While the socket portid is unique and randomized by linux kernel, the linear increment of "number of bindings" in formula (1) makes "key" not unique anymore. For example: - Socket 1 is created with its associated port number 20062001. Type 1000, instance 1 is bound to socket 1: key1: 20062001 + 0 + 1 = 20062002 Then, bind() is called a second time on Socket 1 to by the same type 1000, instance 1: key2: 20062001 + 1 + 1 = 20062003 Named table: key1 (20062002), entry1 (1000, 1 ...) key2 (20062003), entry2 (1000, 1 ...) - Socket 2 is created with its associated port number 20062002. Type 1000, instance 1 is bound to socket 2: key3: 20062002 + 0 + 1 = 20062003 TIPC looks up the named table and finds out that key2 with the same value already exists and rejects the insertion into the named table. This leads to failure of bind() call from application on Socket 2 with error message EINVAL "Invalid argument". This commit fixes this issue by adding more port id checking to make sure that the key is unique to publications originated from the same port id and node.

tipc: use kfree_sensitive() for session key material

2026-02-11T12:41:57+00:00

[ Upstream commit 74d9391e8849e70ded5309222d09b0ed0edbd039 ] The rx->skey field contains a struct tipc_aead_key with GCM-AES encryption keys used for TIPC cluster communication. Using plain kfree() leaves this sensitive key material in freed memory pages where it could potentially be recovered. Switch to kfree_sensitive() to ensure the key material is zeroed before the memory is freed.

tipc: Fix use-after-free in tipc_conn_close().

2025-07-08T01:38:24+00:00

syzbot reported a null-ptr-deref in tipc_conn_close() during netns dismantle. [0] tipc_topsrv_stop() iterates tipc_net(net)->topsrv->conn_idr and calls tipc_conn_close() for each tipc_conn. The problem is that tipc_conn_close() is called after releasing the IDR lock. At the same time, there might be tipc_conn_recv_work() running and it could call tipc_conn_close() for the same tipc_conn and release its last ->kref. Once we release the IDR lock in tipc_topsrv_stop(), there is no guarantee that the tipc_conn is alive. Let's hold the ref before releasing the lock and put the ref after tipc_conn_close() in tipc_topsrv_stop().
