Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-02-26 03:16:31 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

bpf, sockmap: Fix double uncharge the mem of sk_msg

If tcp_bpf_sendmsg is running during a tear down operation, psock may be
freed.

tcp_bpf_sendmsg()
 tcp_bpf_send_verdict()
  sk_msg_return()
  tcp_bpf_sendmsg_redir()
   unlikely(!psock))
     sk_msg_free()

The mem of msg has been uncharged in tcp_bpf_send_verdict() by
sk_msg_return(), and would be uncharged by sk_msg_free() again. When psock
is null, we can simply returning an error code, this would then trigger
the sk_msg_free_nocharge in the error path of __SK_REDIRECT and would have
the side effect of throwing an error up to user space. This would be a
slight change in behavior from user side but would look the same as an
error if the redirect on the socket threw an error.

This issue can cause the following info:
