Subject: [PATCH bpf] bpf: Fix NULL pointer dereference in bpf_sk_storage_clone and diag paths
Date: Mon, 20 Apr 2026 09:14:33 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260420161432.3919396-2-bestswngs@gmail.com> (raw)

bpf_selem_unlink_nofail() sets SDATA(selem)->smap to NULL before
removing the selem from the storage hlist. A concurrent RCU reader in
bpf_sk_storage_clone() can observe the selem still on the list with
smap already NULL, causing a NULL pointer dereference.

 general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc000000000a:
 KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000050-0x0000000000000057]
 RIP: 0010:bpf_sk_storage_clone+0x1cd/0xaa0 net/core/bpf_sk_storage.c:174
 Call Trace:
  <IRQ>
  sk_clone+0xfed/0x1980 net/core/sock.c:2591
  inet_csk_clone_lock+0x30/0x760 net/ipv4/inet_connection_sock.c:1222

  tcp_v4_rcv+0x1845/0x3b80 net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c:2347

While at it, also add NULL checks in bpf_sk_storage_diag_put_all() and
diag_get() which have the same unprotected dereference pattern and could
theoretically hit the same race during an inet_diag dump.

Fixes: 5d800f87d0a5 ("bpf: Support lockless unlink when freeing map or local storage")
