Subject: [PATCH net] tipc: serialize udp bearer replicast list updates
Date: Mon,  6 Jul 2026 06:47:17 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260706134716.3879-2-bestswngs@gmail.com> (raw)

tipc_udp_rcast_add() and cleanup_bearer() both update ub->rcast.list
with list_add_rcu() / list_del_rcu(), but nothing serializes them. The
add runs from the encap receive softirq (via tipc_udp_rcast_disc())
without rtnl_lock(), so it can race the cleanup delete and corrupt the
list:

 list_del corruption. prev->next should be ffff8880298d7ab8,
   but was ffff88802449ad38. (prev=ffff888027e3ec98)
 kernel BUG at lib/list_debug.c:62!
 RIP: __list_del_entry_valid_or_report+0x17a/0x200
 Workqueue: events cleanup_bearer
 Call Trace:
  cleanup_bearer (net/tipc/udp_media.c:811)
  process_one_work (kernel/workqueue.c:3302)
  worker_thread (kernel/workqueue.c:3466)

The bearer can be enabled from an unprivileged user namespace, as the
TIPCv2 generic-netlink ops carry no GENL_ADMIN_PERM.

Add a spinlock and take it around both list updates. Re-check for the
peer under the lock in the add path so the check-then-add in
tipc_udp_rcast_disc() cannot insert a duplicate.
