netfilter: require Ethernet MAC header before using eth_hdr()

2026-06-19T11:37:33+00:00

[ Upstream commit 62443dc21114c0bbc476fa62973db89743f2f137 ] `ip6t_eui64`, `xt_mac`, the `bitmap:ip,mac`, `hash:ip,mac`, and `hash:mac` ipset types, and `nf_log_syslog` access `eth_hdr(skb)` after either assuming that the skb is associated with an Ethernet device or checking only that the `ETH_HLEN` bytes at `skb_mac_header(skb)` lie between `skb->head` and `skb->data`. Make these paths first verify that the skb is associated with an Ethernet device, that the MAC header was set, and that it spans at least a full Ethernet header before accessing `eth_hdr(skb)`.

batman-adv: tp_meter: avoid role confusion in tp_list

2026-06-19T11:37:33+00:00

commit ff24f2ecfd94c07a2b89bac497433e3b23271cac upstream. Session lookups in tp_list matched only on destination address (and optionally session ID), leaving role validation to the caller. If two sessions with the same other_end coexisted (one as sender, one as receiver) a lookup could silently return the wrong one, causing the caller's role to bail out early, potentially skipping necessary cleanup. Move the role check into the lookup functions themselves so the correct entry is always returned, or none at all. Since batadv_tp_start() legitimately needs to detect any active session to a destination regardless of role, introduce a dedicated helper for that case rather than bending the existing lookup semantics.

batman-adv: tp_meter: fix race condition in send error reporting

2026-06-19T11:37:33+00:00

commit 71dce47f0758537fff78fddb5fb0d4632d29b29f upstream. batadv_tp_sender_shutdown() previously used two separate variables to track session state: sending (an atomic flag indicating whether the session was active) and reason (a plain enum storing the stop reason). This introduced a race window between the two writes: after sending was cleared to 0, batadv_tp_send() could observe the stopped state and call batadv_tp_sender_end() before reason was written, causing the wrong stop reason to be reported to the caller. Fix this by consolidating both variables into a single atomic send_result, which holds 0 while the session is running and the stop reason once it ends.

batman-adv: tp_meter: fix tp_vars reference leak in receiver shutdown

2026-06-19T11:37:33+00:00

commit 77098e4bea37af51d3962efa88a5af2ea5e1ac57 upstream. The receiver shutdown timer handler, batadv_tp_receiver_shutdown(), is responsible for releasing the tp_vars reference it holds. However, the existing logic for coordinating this release with batadv_tp_stop_all() was flawed. timer_shutdown_sync() guarantees the timer will not fire again after it returns, but it returns non-zero only when the timer was pending at the time of the call. If the timer had already expired (and batadv_tp_stop_all() would unsucessfully try to rearm itself), batadv_tp_stop_all() skips its batadv_tp_vars_put(), and batadv_tp_receiver_shutdown() fails to put its own reference as well. Fix this by introducing a new atomic variable receiving that is set to 1 when the receiver is initialized and cleared atomically with atomic_xchg() by whichever side claims it first. Only the side that observes the transition from 1 to 0 is responsible for releasing the tp_vars timer reference, eliminating the uncertainty.

batman-adv: tp_meter: fix tp_num leak on kmalloc failure

2026-06-19T11:37:30+00:00

commit ce425dd05d0fe7594930a0fb103634f35ac47bb6 upstream. When batadv_tp_start() or batadv_tp_init_recv() fail to allocate a new tp_vars object, the previously incremented bat_priv->tp_num counter is never decremented. This causes tp_num to drift upward on each allocation failure. Since only BATADV_TP_MAX_NUM sessions can be started and the count is never reduced for these failed allocations, it causes to an exhaustion of throughput meter sessions. In worst case, no new throughput meter session can be started until the mesh interface is removed. The error handling must decrement tp_num releasing the lock and aborting the creation of an throughput meter session Cc: stable@kernel.org Fixes: 33a3bb4a3345 ("batman-adv: throughput meter implementation") Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann [ Context ] Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

batman-adv: stop tp_meter sessions during mesh teardown

2026-06-19T11:37:30+00:00

commit 3d3cf6a7314aca4df0a6dde28ce784a2a30d0166 upstream. TP meter sessions remain linked on bat_priv->tp_list after the netlink request has already finished. When the mesh interface is removed, batadv_mesh_free() currently tears down the mesh without first draining these sessions. A running sender thread or a late incoming tp_meter packet can then keep processing against a mesh instance which is already shutting down. Synchronize tp_meter with the mesh lifetime by stopping all active sessions from batadv_mesh_free() and waiting for sender threads to exit before teardown continues.

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

2026-06-19T11:37:29+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.

mptcp: do not drop partial packets

2026-06-19T11:37:26+00:00

[ Upstream commit 50c2d91c5dfa0e465826ec1f8dbad9cdc254bd85 ] When a packet arrives with map_seq < ack_seq < end_seq, the beginning of the packet has already been acknowledged but the end contains new data. Currently the entire packet is dropped as "old data," forcing the sender to retransmit. Instead, skip the already-acked bytes by adjusting the skb offset and enqueue only the new portion. Update bytes_received and ack_seq to reflect the new data consumed. A previous attempt at this fix has been sent by Paolo Abeni [1], but had issues [2]: it also added a zero-window check and changed rcv_wnd_sent initialization, which caused test regressions. This version addresses only the partial packet handling without modifying receive window accounting. Fixes: ab174ad8ef76 ("mptcp: move ooo skbs into msk out of order queue.")

mptcp: reset rcv wnd on disconnect

2026-06-19T11:37:26+00:00

[ Upstream commit 0981f90e1a05773a4c29c6e720f5ea1e3c8f1876 ] If the MPTCP socket fallback to TCP before the MP handshake completion, the IASN remain 0, and the rcv_wnd_sent field is not explicitly initialized, just incremented over time with the data transfer. At disconnect time such value is not cleared. If the next connection falls back to TCP before the MP handshake completion, the data transfer will keep incrementing the receive window end sequence starting from the last value used in the previous connection: the announced window will be unrelated from the actual receiver buffer size and likely too big. Address the issue zeroing the field at disconnect time.
