Subject: [PATCH bpf] xsk: fix init race causing NPD/UAF in xsk_create()
Date: Thu, 8 Jan 2026 18:53:44 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260108105343.1694-2-qikeyu2017@gmail.com> (raw)
xsk_init() registers the PF_XDP socket family before xsk_net_ops.
This exposes .create = xsk_create() to user space while per-netns
state (net->xdp.lock/list) is still uninitialized.
A task with CAP_NET_RAW can trigger this during boot/module load by
calling socket(PF_XDP/AF_XDP, SOCK_RAW, 0) concurrently with xsk_init(),
leading to NULL deref, list/lock corruption or use-after-free.
Register the pernet subsystem (and prerequisites) first and only then
sock_register() PF_XDP. Update the error unwind to match the new order.
Similar to CVE-2024-26793 (GTP init ordering bug).
Fixes: c0c77d8fb787 ("xsk: add user memory registration support sockopt")
