Subject: [PATCH 5.10 49/57] xfrm: fix sk_dst_cache double-free in xfrm_user_policy()
Date: Tue, 25 Aug 2026 15:27:11 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260825132543.253167518@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260825132541.342390421@linuxfoundation.org>
5.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Xiang Mei (Microsoft) <xmei5@asu.edu>
[ Upstream commit c283e9ada7fcb7dd4b10592623086b2e6d2f9925 ]
xfrm_user_policy() clears the socket dst cache with __sk_dst_reset(),
i.e. the non-atomic __sk_dst_set(sk, NULL): it reads sk_dst_cache with
rcu_dereference_protected(), stores NULL and dst_release()s the old dst.
That is only safe if no other thread modifies sk_dst_cache concurrently.
For a connected UDP socket that does not hold: the transmit fast path
(udp_sendmsg -> sk_dst_check -> sk_dst_reset) resets the cache locklessly
with an atomic xchg(). A per-socket policy change racing a send can make
both sides observe the same old dst and each dst_release() it, dropping
the socket's single reference twice and freeing the xfrm_dst bundle while
it is still referenced:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in dst_release
Write of size 4 at addr ffff88801897b6c0 by task exploit/155
Call Trace:

entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe (arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:121)
Reachable by an unprivileged user via a user+network namespace.
Use the atomic sk_dst_reset() so the cache is cleared and released with a
single xchg(): whichever side wins releases the dst once, the other sees
NULL and does nothing. Behaviour is otherwise unchanged.
Fixes: 2b06cdf3e688 ("xfrm: Clear sk_dst_cache when applying per-socket policy.")
Fixes: be8f8284cd89 ("net: xfrm: allow clearing socket xfrm policies.")
