<title>appletalk: Fix Use-After-Free in atalk_ioctl</title>

<content type='text'>
Because atalk_ioctl() accesses sk-&gt;sk_receive_queue
without holding a sk-&gt;sk_receive_queue.lock, it can
cause a race with atalk_recvmsg().
A use-after-free for skb occurs with the following flow.
```
atalk_ioctl() -&gt; skb_peek()
atalk_recvmsg() -&gt; skb_recv_datagram() -&gt; skb_free_datagram()
```
Add sk-&gt;sk_receive_queue.lock to atalk_ioctl() to fix this issue.

<title>net: prevent mss overflow in skb_segment()</title>

Once again syzbot is able to crash the kernel in skb_segment() [1]

GSO_BY_FRAGS is a forbidden value, but unfortunately the following
computation in skb_segment() can reach it quite easily :

	mss = mss * partial_segs;

65535 = 3 * 5 * 17 * 257, so many initial values of mss can lead to
a bad final result.

Make sure to limit segmentation so that the new mss value is smaller
than GSO_BY_FRAGS.

This reverts commit f3f32a356c0d2379d4431364e74f101f8f075ce3.

Paolo reports that the change disables autocorking even after
the userspace sets TCP_CORK.

Based on the tcp man page, if TCP_NODELAY is set, it disables Nagle's algorithm
and packets are sent as soon as possible. However in the `tcp_push` function
where autocorking is evaluated the `nonagle` value set by TCP_NODELAY is not
considered which can trigger unexpected corking of packets and induce delays.

For example, if two packets are generated as part of a server's reply, if the
first one is not transmitted on the wire quickly enough, the second packet can
trigger the autocorking in `tcp_push` and be delayed instead of sent as soon as
possible. It will either wait for additional packets to be coalesced or an ACK
from the client before transmitting the corked packet. This can interact badly
if the receiver has tcp delayed acks enabled, introducing 40ms extra delay in
completion times. It is not always possible to control who has delayed acks
set, but it is possible to adjust when and how autocorking is triggered.
Patch prevents autocorking if the TCP_NODELAY flag is set on the socket.

Patch has been tested using an AWS c7g.2xlarge instance with Ubuntu 22.04 and
Apache Tomcat 9.0.83 running the basic servlet below:

import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.OutputStreamWriter;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;

public class HelloWorldServlet extends HttpServlet {
    @Override
    protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
      throws ServletException, IOException {
        response.setContentType("text/html;charset=utf-8");
        OutputStreamWriter osw = new OutputStreamWriter(response.getOutputStream(),"UTF-8");
        String s = "a".repeat(3096);
        osw.write(s,0,s.length());
        osw.flush();
    }
}

Load was applied using  wrk2 (https://github.com/kinvolk/wrk2) from an AWS
c6i.8xlarge instance.  With the current auto-corking behavior and TCP_NODELAY
set an additional 40ms latency from P99.99+ values are observed.  With the
patch applied we see no occurrences of 40ms latencies. The patch has also been
tested with iperf and uperf benchmarks and no regression was observed.

The panic issue was trigered by tcp simultaneous initiation.
The initiation process is as follows:

      TCP A                                            TCP B

  1.  CLOSED                                           CLOSED

  2.  SYN-SENT     --&gt; &lt;SEQ=100&gt;&lt;CTL=SYN&gt;              ...

  3.  SYN-RECEIVED &lt;-- &lt;SEQ=300&gt;&lt;CTL=SYN&gt;              &lt;-- SYN-SENT

  4.               ... &lt;SEQ=100&gt;&lt;CTL=SYN&gt;              --&gt; SYN-RECEIVED

  5.  SYN-RECEIVED --&gt; &lt;SEQ=100&gt;&lt;ACK=301&gt;&lt;CTL=SYN,ACK&gt; ...

  // TCP B: not send challenge ack for ack limit or packet loss
  // TCP A: close
	tcp_close
	   tcp_send_fin
              if (!tskb &amp;&amp; tcp_under_memory_pressure(sk))
                  tskb = skb_rb_last(&amp;sk-&gt;tcp_rtx_queue); //pick SYN_ACK packet
           TCP_SKB_CB(tskb)-&gt;tcp_flags |= TCPHDR_FIN;  // set FIN flag

  6.  FIN_WAIT_1  --&gt; &lt;SEQ=100&gt;&lt;ACK=301&gt;&lt;END_SEQ=102&gt;&lt;CTL=SYN,FIN,ACK&gt; ...

  // TCP B: send challenge ack to SYN_FIN_ACK

  7.               ... &lt;SEQ=301&gt;&lt;ACK=101&gt;&lt;CTL=ACK&gt;   &lt;-- SYN-RECEIVED //challenge ack

  // TCP A:  &lt;SND.UNA=101&gt;

  8.  FIN_WAIT_1 --&gt; &lt;SEQ=101&gt;&lt;ACK=301&gt;&lt;END_SEQ=102&gt;&lt;CTL=SYN,FIN,ACK&gt; ... // retransmit panic

	__tcp_retransmit_skb  //skb-&gt;len=0
	    tcp_trim_head
		len = tp-&gt;snd_una - TCP_SKB_CB(skb)-&gt;seq // len=101-100
		    __pskb_trim_head
			skb-&gt;data_len -= len // skb-&gt;len=-1, wrap around
	    ... ...
	    ip_fragment
		icmp_glue_bits //BUG_ON

If we use tcp_trim_head() to remove acked SYN from packet that contains data
or other flags, skb-&gt;len will be incorrectly decremented. We can remove SYN
flag that has been acked from rtx_queue earlier than tcp_trim_head(), which
can fix the problem mentioned above.

<content type='text'>
Because rose_ioctl() accesses sk-&gt;sk_receive_queue
without holding a sk-&gt;sk_receive_queue.lock, it can
cause a race with rose_accept().
A use-after-free for skb occurs with the following flow.
```
rose_ioctl() -&gt; skb_peek()
rose_accept() -&gt; skb_dequeue() -&gt; kfree_skb()
```
Add sk-&gt;sk_receive_queue.lock to rose_ioctl() to fix this issue.

<title>net/sched: act_ct: Take per-cb reference to tcf_ct_flow_table</title>
<updated>2023-12-11T09:59:58+00:00</updated>

<published>2023-12-05T17:25:54+00:00</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.toradex.cn/cgit/linux-toradex.git/commit/?id=125f1c7f26ffcdbf96177abe75b70c1a6ceb17bc'/>
<id>125f1c7f26ffcdbf96177abe75b70c1a6ceb17bc</id>
<content type='text'>
The referenced change added custom cleanup code to act_ct to delete any
callbacks registered on the parent block when deleting the
tcf_ct_flow_table instance. However, the underlying issue is that the
drivers don't obtain the reference to the tcf_ct_flow_table instance when
registering callbacks which means that not only driver callbacks may still
be on the table when deleting it but also that the driver can still have
pointers to its internal nf_flowtable and can use it concurrently which
results either warning in netfilter[0] or use-after-free.

Fix the issue by taking a reference to the underlying struct
tcf_ct_flow_table instance when registering the callback and release the
reference when unregistering. Expose new API required for such reference
counting by adding two new callbacks to nf_flowtable_type and implementing
them for act_ct flowtable_ct type. This fixes the issue by extending the
lifetime of nf_flowtable until all users have unregistered.
