Subject: [PATCH] ipv6: raw: fix use-after-free in rawv6_send_hdrinc()

rawv6_send_hdrinc() caches the route before handing the skb to
l3mdev_ip6_out(). The VRF output path may replace skb->dst and release
the original route, leaving the cached pointer stale.

The function later dereferences that pointer for statistics accounting
and as the output device passed to NF_HOOK(). Its RCU read-side critical
section starts after l3mdev_ip6_out(), so it cannot prevent the old route
from being reclaimed in between.

Reload the route from the current skb destination after
l3mdev_ip6_out() returns.

KASAN reports a slab-use-after-free in rawv6_sendmsg(), with the route
allocated by ip6_dst_alloc(), freed by dst_destroy() from rcu_core(), and
the related RCU callback queued from vrf_l3_out().

Fixes: 4c1feac58e06 ("net: vrf: Flip IPv6 output path from FIB lookup hook to out hook")

[PATCH 5.10.y] ipv6: raw: fix use-after-free in rawv6_send_hdrinc()

[Sasha Levin]

From: Zhou Qiuyue <n0ps1edzz@gmail.com>

[ Upstream commit 66dfb2cacda7faae614d688943d85e75abf7f586 ]

rawv6_send_hdrinc() caches the route before handing the skb to
l3mdev_ip6_out(). The VRF output path may replace skb->dst and release
the original route, leaving the cached pointer stale.

The function later dereferences that pointer for statistics accounting
and as the output device passed to NF_HOOK(). Its RCU read-side critical
section starts after l3mdev_ip6_out(), so it cannot prevent the old route
from being reclaimed in between.

Reload the route from the current skb destination after
l3mdev_ip6_out() returns.

KASAN reports a slab-use-after-free in rawv6_sendmsg(), with the route
allocated by ip6_dst_alloc(), freed by dst_destroy() from rcu_core(), and
the related RCU callback queued from vrf_l3_out().
