Description
===========
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sockmap: Fix use-after-free in udp_bpf_recvmsg()
syzbot reported use-after-free of struct sk_msg in sk_msg_recvmsg(). [0]
sk_msg_recvmsg() peeks sk_msg from psock->ingress_msg under a lock,
but its processing is lockless.
Thus, sk_msg_recvmsg() must be serialised by callers, otherwise
multiple threads could touch the same sk_msg.
For example, TCP uses lock_sock(), and AF_UNIX uses unix_sk(sk)->iolock.
Initially, udp_bpf_recvmsg() had used lock_sock(), but the cited
commit removed it.
Let's serialise sk_msg_recvmsg() with lock_sock() in udp_bpf_recvmsg().
Note that holding spin_lock_bh(&sk->sk_receive_queue.lock) is not
an option due to copy_page_to_iter() in sk_msg_recvmsg().

Mitigation
==========
The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
