Subject: [PATCH net v2] tipc: reject name table updates with invalid origin node
Date: Mon, 28 Sep 2026 10:17:54 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260928021807.7945-1-juny24602@gmail.com> (raw)
From: Jun Yang <junvyyang@tencent.com>
tipc_rcv() locates the sending peer using msg_prevnode(), while
tipc_named_rcv() takes the node address for NAME_DISTRIBUTOR updates
from msg_orignode(). These are separate fields in the message header,
so finding a valid peer does not validate the origin node.
For a WITHDRAWAL with origin node 0, tipc_nametbl_remove_publ() treats
the node as a wildcard and can remove a matching peer publication from
the name table. tipc_node_unsubscribe() then returns without unlinking
binding_node because in_own_node() treats node 0 as local.
tipc_update_nametbl() subsequently calls kfree_rcu(), leaving its
binding_node linked on the peer's publ_list.
Once the publication has been freed, withdrawing an adjacent publication
from the same peer can access the stale list entry in list_del_init().
The following KASAN report shows this access in the list validation code:

Reject zero and own-node origin addresses at the start of
tipc_update_nametbl(), before inserting or removing any publication.
Neither value is a valid origin for a peer name-table update, and
in_own_node() covers both cases.
