commit 7deb5622ddf6a03f72f031cf7e714bbd4cca6f9e
Author: Kuniyuki Iwashima <kuniyu@google.com>
bpf: tcp: Add kfunc to adjust sk->sk_rcvlowat.
This commit adds a new BPF kfunc, bpf_tcp_ops_set_rcvlowat, to dynamically
adjust sk->sk_rcvlowat from bpf_tcp_ops.{enqueue,dequeue}_rcvq(). It handles
negative values and calls __tcp_set_rcvlowat() to update the socket.

[Severity: High]
Could this allow a BPF program to pass a non-TCP or unlocked socket here?
Since the argument is a generic "struct sock *sk", a BPF program might use
bpf_map_lookup_elem() on a sockmap or bpf_sk_lookup_udp() to obtain a
trusted PTR_TO_SOCKET for a UDP socket or an unlocked TCP socket.
If an arbitrary socket is passed through to __tcp_set_rcvlowat(), it
unsafely casts the socket to a tcp_sock:
net/ipv4/tcp.c:__tcp_set_rcvlowat() {
struct tcp_sock *tp = tcp_sk(sk);
...
if (space > sk->sk_rcvbuf) {
WRITE_ONCE(sk->sk_rcvbuf, space);
if (tp->window_clamp && tp->window_clamp < val)
WRITE_ONCE(tp->window_clamp, val);
}
}
Since udp_sock is smaller than tcp_sock, writing to tp->window_clamp
could cause an out-of-bounds write. Additionally, modifying sk_rcvbuf and
window_clamp on an arbitrary looked-up socket could cause a data race
if the socket is not implicitly locked by the current context.
