Subject: [PATCH] net: bonding: fix use-after-free in bond_xmit_broadcast()
Date: Mon, 27 Apr 2026 18:42:07 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260427184208.161981-2-kpberry@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260427184208.161981-1-kpberry@google.com>

From: Xiang Mei <xmei5@asu.edu>

[ Upstream commit 2884bf72fb8f03409e423397319205de48adca16 ]

bond_xmit_broadcast() reuses the original skb for the last slave
(determined by bond_is_last_slave()) and clones it for others.
Concurrent slave enslave/release can mutate the slave list during
RCU-protected iteration, changing which slave is "last" mid-loop.
This causes the original skb to be double-consumed (double-freed).

Replace the racy bond_is_last_slave() check with a simple index
comparison (i + 1 == slaves_count) against the pre-snapshot slave
count taken via READ_ONCE() before the loop.  This preserves the
zero-copy optimization for the last slave while making the "last"
determination stable against concurrent list mutations.

The UAF can trigger the following crash:
