Subject: [PATCH v1 net] tcp: Fix dst leak in tcp_v6_connect().
Date: Wed,  6 May 2026 07:04:42 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260506070443.1699879-1-kuniyu@google.com> (raw)

If a socket is bound to a wildcard address, tcp_v[46]_connect()
updates it with a non-wildcard address based on the route lookup.

After bhash2 was introduced in the cited commit, we must call
inet_bhash2_update_saddr() to update the bhash2 entry as well.

If inet_bhash2_update_saddr() fails, we must release the refcount
for dst by ip_route_connect() or ip6_dst_lookup_flow().

While tcp_v4_connect() calls ip_rt_put() in the error path,
tcp_v6_connect() does not call dst_release().

Let's call dst_release() when inet_bhash2_update_saddr() fails
in tcp_v6_connect().

Fixes: 28044fc1d495 ("net: Add a bhash2 table hashed by port and address")
