Subject: [PATCH net v3] net/smc: fix out-of-bounds read when sk_user_data holds a sk_psock
Date: Mon, 29 Jun 2026 09:51:33 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260629095140.679754-1-rhkrqnwk98@gmail.com> (raw)
A passive-open child inherits the listener's smc_clcsock_data_ready().
sk_clone_lock() clears its sk_user_data to NULL because the listener tagged
it SK_USER_DATA_NOCOPY. Until accept restores the callback, a BPF sock_ops
program can add the established child to a sockmap, and sk_psock_init()
installs a sk_psock into the NULL sk_user_data. The inherited callback then
reads it back through smc_clcsock_user_data(), which strips only NOCOPY,
takes the sk_psock for an smc_sock, and dereferences a clcsk_* field past
its end:

Resolve the conflict on the write path. Reserve the child's sk_user_data
with a NULL pointer tagged SK_USER_DATA_NOCOPY so sk_psock_init() returns
-EBUSY, and release it at accept. smc_clcsock_user_data() still strips the
tag to NULL, so the inherited callback stays a no-op.
