commit 9b3eb54106cf6acd03f07cf0ab01c13676a226c2 upstream.

When CONFIG_XFRM_SUB_POLICY=y, xfrm_dst stores a copy of the flowi for
that dst. Unfortunately, the code that allocates and fills this copy
doesn't care about what type of flowi (flowi, flowi4, flowi6) gets
passed. In multiple code paths (from raw_sendmsg, from TCP when
replying to a FIN, in vxlan, geneve, and gre), the flowi that gets
passed to xfrm is actually an on-stack flowi4, so we end up reading
stuff from the stack past the end of the flowi4 struct.

Since xfrm_dst-&gt;origin isn't used anywhere following commit
ca116922afa8 ("xfrm: Eliminate "fl" and "pol" args to
xfrm_bundle_ok()."), just get rid of it.  xfrm_dst-&gt;partner isn't used
either, so get rid of that too.

commit f843ee6dd019bcece3e74e76ad9df0155655d0df upstream.

Kees Cook has pointed out that xfrm_replay_state_esn_len() is subject to
wrapping issues.  To ensure we are correctly ensuring that the two ESN
structures are the same size compare both the overall size as reported
by xfrm_replay_state_esn_len() and the internal length are the same.

commit 677e806da4d916052585301785d847c3b3e6186a upstream.

When a new xfrm state is created during an XFRM_MSG_NEWSA call we
validate the user supplied replay_esn to ensure that the size is valid
and to ensure that the replay_window size is within the allocated
buffer.  However later it is possible to update this replay_esn via a
XFRM_MSG_NEWAE call.  There we again validate the size of the supplied
buffer matches the existing state and if so inject the contents.  We do
not at this point check that the replay_window is within the allocated
memory.  This leads to out-of-bounds reads and writes triggered by
netlink packets.  This leads to memory corruption and the potential for
priviledge escalation.

We already attempt to validate the incoming replay information in
xfrm_new_ae() via xfrm_replay_verify_len().  This confirms that the user
is not trying to change the size of the replay state buffer which
includes the replay_esn.  It however does not check the replay_window
remains within that buffer.  Add validation of the contained
replay_window.

Problem is that when we get error during xfrm_net_init we will call

[ Upstream commit 071d36bf21bcc837be00cea55bcef8d129e7f609 ]

A crash is observed when a decrypted packet is processed in receive
path. get_rps_cpus() tries to dereference the skb-&gt;dev fields but it
appears that the device is freed from the poison pattern.

Following are the sequence of events observed -

- Encrypted packet in receive path from netdevice is queued
- Encrypted packet queued for decryption (asynchronous)
- Netdevice brought down and freed
- Packet is decrypted and returned through callback in esp_input_done
- Packet is queued again for process in network stack using netif_rx

Since the device appears to have been freed, the dereference of
skb-&gt;dev in get_rps_cpus() leads to an unhandled page fault
exception.

Fix this by holding on to device reference when queueing packets
asynchronously and releasing the reference on call back return.

v2: Make the change generic to xfrm as mentioned by Steffen and
update the title to xfrm

[ Upstream commit 9207f9d45b0ad071baa128e846d7e7ed85016df3 ]

Skb_gso_segment() uses skb control block during segmentation.
This patch adds 32-bytes room for previous control block which
will be copied into all resulting segments.

This patch fixes kernel crash during fragmenting forwarded packets.
Fragmentation requires valid IP CB in skb for clearing ip options.
Also patch removes custom save/restore in ovs code, now it's redundant.

XFRM can deal with SYNACK messages, sent while listener socket
is not locked. We add proper rcu protection to __xfrm_sk_clone_policy()
and xfrm_sk_policy_lookup()

This might serve as the first step to remove xfrm.xfrm_policy_lock
use in fast path.

We will soon switch sk-&gt;sk_policy[] to RCU protection,
as SYNACK packets are sent while listener socket is not locked.

This patch simply adds RCU grace period before struct xfrm_policy
freeing, and the corresponding rcu_head in struct xfrm_policy.

TCP SYNACK messages might now be attached to request sockets.

XFRM needs to get back to a listener socket.

Adds new helpers that might be used elsewhere :
sk_to_full_sk() and sk_const_to_full_sk()

Note: We also need to add RCU protection for xfrm lookups,
now TCP/DCCP have lockless listener processing. This will
be addressed in separate patches.
