      net/packet: fix slab-out-of-bounds access in packet_recvmsg() · c700525f
      Eric Dumazet authored 
      syzbot found that when an AF_PACKET socket is using PACKET_COPY_THRESH
and mmap operations, tpacket_rcv() is queueing skbs with
garbage in skb->cb[], triggering a too big copy [1]

Presumably, users of af_packet using mmap() already gets correct
metadata from the mapped buffer, we can simply make sure
to clear 12 bytes that might be copied to user space later.

      esp6: fix check on ipv6_skip_exthdr's return value · 4db4075f
      Sabrina Dubroca authored 
      Commit 5f9c55c8 ("ipv6: check return value of ipv6_skip_exthdr")
introduced an incorrect check, which leads to all ESP packets over
either TCPv6 or UDPv6 encapsulation being dropped. In this particular
case, offset is negative, since skb->data points to the ESP header in
the following chain of headers, while skb->network_header points to
the IPv6 header:

    IPv6 | ext | ... | ext | UDP | ESP | ...

That doesn't seem to be a problem, especially considering that if we
reach esp6_input_done2, we're guaranteed to have a full set of headers
available (otherwise the packet would have been dropped earlier in the
stack). However, it means that the return value will (intentionally)
be negative. We can make the test more specific, as the expected
return value of ipv6_skip_exthdr will be the (negated) size of either
a UDP header, or a TCP header with possible options.

In the future, we should probably either make ipv6_skip_exthdr
explicitly accept negative offsets (and adjust its return value for
error cases), or make ipv6_skip_exthdr only take non-negative
offsets (and audit all callers).

      xdp: xdp_mem_allocator can be NULL in trace_mem_connect(). · e0ae7130
      Sebastian Andrzej Siewior authored 
      Since the commit mentioned below __xdp_reg_mem_model() can return a NULL
pointer. This pointer is dereferenced in trace_mem_connect() which leads
to segfault.

The trace points (mem_connect + mem_disconnect) were put in place to
pair connect/disconnect using the IDs. The ID is only assigned if
__xdp_reg_mem_model() does not return NULL. That connect trace point is
of no use if there is no ID.

Skip that connect trace point if xdp_alloc is NULL.

[ Toke Høiland-Jørgensen delivered the reasoning for skipping the trace
  point ]

      af_key: add __GFP_ZERO flag for compose_sadb_supported in function pfkey_register · 9a564bcc
      Haimin Zhang authored 
      
Add __GFP_ZERO flag for compose_sadb_supported in function pfkey_register
to initialize the buffer of supp_skb to fix a kernel-info-leak issue.
1) Function pfkey_register calls compose_sadb_supported to request
a sk_buff. 2) compose_sadb_supported calls alloc_sbk to allocate
a sk_buff, but it doesn't zero it. 3) If auth_len is greater 0, then
compose_sadb_supported treats the memory as a struct sadb_supported and
begins to initialize. But it just initializes the field sadb_supported_len
and field sadb_supported_exttype without field sadb_supported_reserved.

      When two ax25 devices attempted to establish connection, the requester use ax25_create(),
ax25_bind() and ax25_connect() to initiate connection. The receiver use ax25_rcv() to

ax25_cb->sk is NULL. When the receiver is detaching, a NULL pointer dereference bug
caused by sock_hold(sk) in ax25_kill_by_device() will happen. The corresponding
fail log is shown below:

      tipc: fix incorrect order of state message data sanity check · c79fcc27
      Tung Nguyen authored 
      When receiving a state message, function tipc_link_validate_msg()
is called to validate its header portion. Then, its data portion
is validated before it can be accessed correctly. However, current
data sanity  check is done after the message header is accessed to
update some link variables.

This commit fixes this issue by moving the data sanity check to
the beginning of state message handling and right after the header
sanity check.

      net: Fix esp GSO on inter address family tunnels. · 23c7f8d7
      Steffen Klassert authored 
      The esp tunnel GSO handlers use skb_mac_gso_segment to
push the inner packet to the segmentation handlers.
However, skb_mac_gso_segment takes the Ethernet Protocol
ID from 'skb->protocol' which is wrong for inter address
family tunnels. We fix this by introducing a new
skb_eth_gso_segment function.

This function can be used if it is necessary to pass the
Ethernet Protocol ID directly to the segmentation handler.
First users of this function will be the esp4 and esp6
tunnel segmentation handlers.

      xen/9p: use alloc/free_pages_exact() · 5cadd4bb
      Juergen Gross authored 
      
Instead of __get_free_pages() and free_pages() use alloc_pages_exact()
and free_pages_exact(). This is in preparation of a change of
gnttab_end_foreign_access() which will prohibit use of high-order
pages.

By using the local variable "order" instead of ring->intf->ring_order
in the error path of xen_9pfs_front_alloc_dataring() another bug is
fixed, as the error path can be entered before ring->intf->ring_order
is being set.

By using alloc_pages_exact() the size in bytes is specified for the
allocation, which fixes another bug for the case of
order < (PAGE_SHIFT - XEN_PAGE_SHIFT).

This is part of CVE-2022-23041 / XSA-396.

Monitoring pointer in thread 2 is dereferenced before monitoring data
is allocated in thread 1. This causes kernel panic.

This commit fixes it by allocating the monitoring data before enabling
the bearer to receive messages.

      nl80211: Update bss channel on channel switch for P2P_CLIENT · e50b88c4
      Sreeramya Soratkal authored 
      
The wdev channel information is updated post channel switch only for
the station mode and not for the other modes. Due to this, the P2P client
still points to the old value though it moved to the new channel
when the channel change is induced from the P2P GO.

Update the bss channel after CSA channel switch completion for P2P client
interface as well.

      batman-adv: Don't expect inter-netns unique iflink indices · 6c1f41af
      Sven Eckelmann authored 
      The ifindex doesn't have to be unique for multiple network namespaces on
the same machine.

  $ ip netns add test1
  $ ip -net test1 link add dummy1 type dummy
  $ ip netns add test2
  $ ip -net test2 link add dummy2 type dummy

  $ ip -net test1 link show dev dummy1
  6: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
      link/ether 96:81:55:1e:dd:85 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
  $ ip -net test2 link show dev dummy2
  6: dummy2: <BROADCAST,NOARP> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
      link/ether 5a:3c:af:35:07:c3 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

But the batman-adv code to walk through the various layers of virtual
interfaces uses this assumption because dev_get_iflink handles it
internally and doesn't return the actual netns of the iflink. And
dev_get_iflink only documents the situation where ifindex == iflink for
physical devices.

But only checking for dev->netdev_ops->ndo_get_iflink is also not an option
because ipoib_get_iflink implements it even when it sometimes returns an
iflink != ifindex and sometimes iflink == ifindex. The caller must
therefore make sure itself to check both netns and iflink + ifindex for
equality. Only when they are equal, a "physical" interface was detected
which should stop the traversal. On the other hand, vxcan_get_iflink can
also return 0 in case there was currently no valid peer. In this case, it
is still necessary to stop.

      batman-adv: Request iflink once in batadv_get_real_netdevice · 6116ba09
      Sven Eckelmann authored 
      There is no need to call dev_get_iflink multiple times for the same
net_device in batadv_get_real_netdevice. And since some of the
ndo_get_iflink callbacks are dynamic (for example via RCUs like in
vxcan_get_iflink), it could easily happen that the returned values are not
stable. The pre-checks before __dev_get_by_index are then of course bogus.
