Description
===========

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

igmp: convert struct ip_sf_list to RCU

Commit 23d2b94043ca ("igmp: Add ip_mc_list lock in ip_check_mc_rcu")
added spin_lock_bh(&im->lock) to ip_check_mc_rcu() to prevent a
use-after-free while iterating im->sources during concurrent deletions.

However, ip_check_mc_rcu() is called from RCU read-side critical
sections in packet receive and route lookup fast paths (e.g.
__mkroute_output(), ip_route_input_rcu(), and __udp4_lib_rcv()).

When igmpv3_send_cr() or igmpv3_send_report() holds &pmc->lock and
calls add_grec() -> igmpv3_newpack() -> ip_route_output_ports(),
an XFRM policy matching a multicast destination triggers
xfrm_tmpl_resolve_one() -> xfrm4_get_saddr() -> __mkroute_output() ->
ip_check_mc_rcu(). This attempts to acquire &im->lock while &pmc->lock
is already held on the same CPU, triggering a lockdep recursive locking
warning / deadlock.

Fix this by converting IPv4 struct ip_sf_list to RCU, mirroring the
IPv6 implementation in net/ipv6/mcast.c:

1. Add struct rcu_head to struct ip_sf_list and annotate sf_next,
   sources, and tomb as __rcu pointers.
2. Use rcu_assign_pointer() and kfree_rcu() for list updates and
   deletions.
3. Remove spin_lock_bh(&im->lock) from ip_check_mc_rcu() and traverse
   im->sources locklessly with for_each_psf_rcu(), reading and writing
   counter fields with READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE().

Note: RCU conversion of /proc/net/mcfilter will be done in a
separate patch.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2026-98103 to this issue.

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:
