Subject: [PATCH bpf] bpf: Fix use-after-free in offloaded map/prog info fill
Date: Wed,  8 Apr 2026 18:47:31 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260408104732.259683-1-jiayuan.chen@linux.dev> (raw)

When querying info for an offloaded BPF map or program,
bpf_map_offload_info_fill_ns() and bpf_prog_offload_info_fill_ns()
obtain the network namespace with get_net(dev_net(offmap->netdev)).
However, the associated netdev's netns may be racing with teardown
during netns destruction. If the netns refcount has already reached 0,
get_net() performs a refcount_t increment on 0, triggering:

  refcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free.

Although rtnl_lock and bpf_devs_lock ensure the netdev pointer remains
valid, they cannot prevent the netns refcount from reaching zero.

Fix this by using maybe_get_net() instead of get_net(). maybe_get_net()
uses refcount_inc_not_zero() and returns NULL if the refcount is already
zero, which causes ns_get_path_cb() to fail and the caller to return
-ENODEV -- the correct behavior when the netns is being destroyed.

Fixes: 675fc275a3a2d ("bpf: offload: report device information for offloaded programs")
Fixes: 52775b33bb507 ("bpf: offload: report device information about offloaded maps")
