Subject: [PATCH stable 6.6 v2] tcp: fix potential race in tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock()
Date: Fri,  4 Sep 2026 11:35:00 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260904183500.3841094-5-florian.fainelli@broadcom.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260904183500.3841094-1-florian.fainelli@broadcom.com>

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>

Code in tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock() after the call to tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock()
is done too late.

After tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock(), the child socket is already visible
from TCP ehash table and other cpus might use it.

Since newinet->pinet6 is still pointing to the listener ipv6_pinfo
bad things can happen as syzbot found.

Move the problematic code in tcp_v6_mapped_child_init()
and call this new helper from tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock() before
the ehash insertion.

This allows the removal of one tcp_sync_mss(), since
tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock() will call it with the correct
context.

Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")

(cherry picked from commit 858d2a4f67ff69e645a43487ef7ea7f28f06deae)
[florian:
 - net/ipv6/tcp_ipv6.c:
   - Set `newnp->ipv6_fl_list = NULL` instead of `newinet->ipv6_fl_list = NULL`,
     as `ipv6_fl_list` is in `struct ipv6_pinfo`.
   - Guarded `af_specific` assignment with `#ifdef CONFIG_TCP_MD5SIG` instead
     of checking `CONFIG_TCP_AO`.
   - Used `if (tcp_inet6_sk(sk)->repflow)` instead of `inet6_test_bit(REPFLOW, sk)`.
 - net/dccp/:
   - Updated `syn_recv_sock` implementations and call sites for DCCP, which was
     removed in upstream kernels prior to this commit.]
Assisted-by: Cursor:gemini-3.7-flash

Changes in v2:
- Updated the DCCP subsystem (net/dccp/) to handle the additional
  opt_child_init argument in syn_recv_sock callback, fixing build
  failures when CONFIG_IP_DCCP is enabled.
