Subject: [PATCH can-next v3 4/4] can: protect the receive lists with a per-device lock
Date: Mon, 19 Oct 2026 09:42:43 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261019074244.50391-5-socketcan@hartkopp.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261019074244.50391-1-socketcan@hartkopp.net>
The receive lists of a CAN device are located in the device's
can_ml_priv and travel with the device when it is moved to another
network namespace. But they are protected by the per-netns
rcvlists_lock. So can_rx_unregister() needs dev_net(dev) to pick the
right lock and silently returns when the passed namespace does not
match dev_net(dev) anymore.
isotp_release() and bcm_release() leave their notifier list before they
take any lock that serializes against the netdev notifier, which runs
under RTNL. When the bound device is moved to another namespace in this
window, the notifier skips the socket and the release path has to remove
the filters itself. isotp_release() passes the socket's namespace, which
does not match dev_net(dev) anymore. bcm_rx_unreg() passes dev_net(dev),
which can_rx_unregister() reads again for its check, so a namespace
change between both reads makes the check fail as well. In both cases
can_rx_unregister() silently returns. As can_rx_register() stores
rcv->sk without a reference, the remaining receivers point to the freed
socket (isotp) or the freed op (bcm):
BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in isotp_rcv+0x1570/0x24d0
Read of size 1 at addr ffff888118130552 by task isotp_ns_uaf/578

can_rcv+0x2a9/0x310
__netif_receive_skb_one_core+0x21a/0x260
process_backlog+0x210/0x760
Besides this, the lists of a device are protected by the rcvlists_lock
of the namespace that is passed in. Callers which pass dev_net(dev) read
it at different times, so the same lists may be modified under the locks
of different namespaces while the device is moved.
Taking RTNL in these release paths is no option: raw_bind(),
raw_setsockopt() and raw_release() already hold RTNL while adding and
removing up to CAN_RAW_FILTER_MAX filters per socket, which unprivileged
users can trigger repeatedly and which makes RTNL a global bottleneck.
Instead fix the root cause and add a spinlock to struct
can_dev_rcv_lists, which protects the receive lists of a CAN device or
the 'any' CAN device lists of a namespace. It is initialized in
can_set_ml_priv(), which is used by all CAN network devices. With this,
can_rx_unregister() finds the subscription independently of the
current namespace of the device. The protocols keep the device valid
with their tracked references. The per-netns rcvlists_lock only protects
the receive list statistics anymore, and the callers pass the namespace
that has been used for can_rx_register().
So isotp_release() and bcm_release() now remove their filters correctly
without RTNL, and raw_release(), raw_setsockopt(), raw_bind() and
isotp_bind() do not need RTNL anymore and add and remove their filters
under lock_sock(). To serialize bind() with NETDEV_UNREGISTER, bind()
publishes the device inside the RCU section of its lookup, and
raw_notify() and isotp_notify() recheck the bound device under lock_sock().

Changes in v3:
- not RFC anymore, sent as new series with the patches 1-3 from the
linux-can-next pull request to build on top of mainline (see cover letter)
- commit message: describe the isotp and bcm cases separately (bcm passes
dev_net(dev), which can_rx_unregister() reads again for its check) and
mention that the lists of a device could be modified under the locks of
different namespaces
- can_rx_unregister() kernel-doc: @net also selects the 'any' CAN device
lists for @dev == NULL
- v2: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-can/20261018180739.689750-1-socketcan@hartkopp.net/
Changes in v2:
- v1 relied on the NETDEV_UNREGISTER rebroadcast in
netdev_wait_allrefs_any() to catch a bind() racing with the notifier,
which is not sent on a namespace change. raw_bind() and isotp_bind() now
publish the device inside the RCU section of dev_get_by_index_rcu()
(CAN_RAW: new ro->bind_dev hint with smp_store_release() /
smp_load_acquire(), CAN_ISOTP: so->dev is published early and reset
when bind() fails)
- moved the implementation details from the commit message to the notes
- shortened the code comments
- replaced the rebind rate measurement with an RTNL latency measurement
- v1: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-can/20261017201935.399233-1-socketcan@hartkopp.net/
Notes:
- bind() vs. NETDEV_UNREGISTER: Both on unregistration and on a
namespace change, unlist_netdevice() and synchronize_net() precede
NETDEV_UNREGISTER. bind() publishes the device (ro->bind_dev /
so->dev) inside the RCU section of dev_get_by_index_rcu(). So either
the notifier sees it after synchronize_net() and handles the socket
under lock_sock(), or the lookup does not find the unlisted device and
bind() fails with -ENODEV. The NETDEV_UNREGISTER rebroadcast in
netdev_wait_allrefs_any() is not relied on, as it does not happen on a
namespace change.
- raw_notify() / isotp_notify() keep a lockless READ_ONCE() fast path,
so RTNL only waits for lock_sock() of sockets that are bound or being
bound to the vanishing device. CAN_RAW needs the separate
ro->bind_dev hint, as ro->dev still points to the previously bound
device until a rebind completes. ro->bind_dev is never dereferenced;
a stale value only causes a needless lock_sock(). raw_notify() reads
ro->bind_dev with smp_load_acquire() before ro->dev, paired with
smp_store_release() in raw_bind(): A later bind() can only overwrite
ro->bind_dev after the previous bind() has set ro->dev and released
lock_sock(). Otherwise the notifier could see a stale ro->dev and the
ro->bind_dev of a subsequent failing rebind to another device, and
miss the binding. CAN_ISOTP does not support rebinding and publishes
so->dev directly, which is reset when bind() fails. bcm_notify()
always takes lock_sock() and bcm_rx_setup() looks up the device under
lock_sock(), so bcm needs no extra handling.
- raw_setsockopt() copies the filters from user space before
lock_sock(), so a stalled copy can not block a NETDEV_UNREGISTER that
waits for lock_sock() under RTNL. The dev->reg_state check is only a
shortcut now (READ_ONCE()) and does not catch a namespace change.
- The NETDEV_DOWN case keeps checking ro->dev / so->dev locklessly.
They are written with WRITE_ONCE() in bind() and in the notifier.
- j1939 benefits as well: After a namespace change its
can_rx_unregister() with dev_net(ndev) picked the rcvlists_lock of the
wrong namespace. The receive list statistics may still become
imprecise in this case, as before.
- Tested on a lockdep + KASAN kernel:
- 10 min CAN_RAW / CAN_BCM / CAN_ISOTP traffic and procfs reads in two
namespaces while moving the CAN device between them (2272 moves)
- CAN_RAW / CAN_ISOTP bind and CAN_RAW rebind churn (incl. failing
rebinds to a non-CAN device) against 1007 namespace moves, checking
that no filters are left on the device in the other namespace, and
against 611 device deletions
- bcm_release() with a stalled procfs reader does not block RTNL
- RTNL latency (no-op SIOCSIFMTU on lo) under CAN_RAW 512 filter
churn: avg ~1 us, max ~1.2 ms (before: avg ~250 us, max ~24 ms)
