Subject: [PATCH 5.10.y 2/4] ip6mr: fix use-after-free in ip6mr_sk_done()
Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2026 11:23:05 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261111162230.3239471-2-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261111162230.3239471-1-sashal@kernel.org>
From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>
[ Upstream commit 7d9b1b578d67a14ae7a7a526ee115b233fa264c4 ]
Apparently addrconf_exit_net() is called before igmp6_net_exit()
and ndisc_net_exit() at netns dismantle time:
net_namespace: call ip6table_mangle_net_exit()
net_namespace: call ip6_tables_net_exit()
net_namespace: call ipv6_sysctl_net_exit()
net_namespace: call ioam6_net_exit()
net_namespace: call seg6_net_exit()
net_namespace: call ping_v6_proc_exit_net()
net_namespace: call tcpv6_net_exit()
ip6mr_sk_done sk=ffffa354c78a74c0
net_namespace: call ipv6_frags_exit_net()
net_namespace: call addrconf_exit_net()
net_namespace: call ip6addrlbl_net_exit()
net_namespace: call ip6_flowlabel_net_exit()
net_namespace: call ip6_route_net_exit_late()
net_namespace: call fib6_rules_net_exit()
net_namespace: call xfrm6_net_exit()
net_namespace: call fib6_net_exit()
net_namespace: call ip6_route_net_exit()
net_namespace: call ipv6_inetpeer_exit()
net_namespace: call if6_proc_net_exit()
net_namespace: call ipv6_proc_exit_net()
net_namespace: call udplite6_proc_exit_net()
net_namespace: call raw6_exit_net()
net_namespace: call igmp6_net_exit()
ip6mr_sk_done sk=ffffa35472b2a180
ip6mr_sk_done sk=ffffa354c78a7980
net_namespace: call ndisc_net_exit()
ip6mr_sk_done sk=ffffa35472b2ab00
net_namespace: call ip6mr_net_exit()
net_namespace: call inet6_net_exit()
This was fine because ip6mr_sk_done() would not reach the point decreasing
net->ipv6.devconf_all->mc_forwarding until my patch in ip6mr_sk_done().
To fix this without changing struct pernet_operations ordering,
we can clear net->ipv6.devconf_dflt and net->ipv6.devconf_all
when they are freed from addrconf_exit_net()
