tcp: ipv6: do not read ireq->pktopts from tcp_v6_send_synack()
When IPV6_FL_F_REFLECT is set on a listener, or the net.ipv6.flowlabel_reflect sysctl has FLOWLABEL_REFLECT_ESTABLISHED, tcp_v6_send_synack() reflects the flowlabel of the SYN packet, reading it from the skb stored in ireq->pktopts. Since commit 079096f103fa ("tcp/dccp: install syn_recv requests into ehash table"), request sockets are processed without holding the listener lock. A cpu can then process a retransmitted SYN for a request socket, and send a SYNACK from tcp_check_req(), while another cpu receives the ACK completing the 3WHS. tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock() consumes ireq->pktopts when it wins the hashdance, and the first cpu reads a freed skb: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in tcp_v6_send_synack (include/linux/skbuff.h:3152 include/linux/ipv6.h:110 net/ipv6/tcp_ipv6.c:582) Read of size 8 at addr ffff88802b08b608 by task poc-ipv6-pktopt/5076 Call Trace: <IRQ> tcp_v6_send_synack (include/linux/skbuff.h:3152 include/linux/ipv6.h:110 net/ipv6/tcp_ipv6.c:582) tcp_rtx_synack (net/ipv4/tcp_output.c:4719) tcp_check_req (net/ipv4/tcp_minisocks.c:762) tcp_v6_rcv (net/ipv6/tcp_ipv6.c:1826) ip6_protocol_deliver_rcu (net/ipv6/ip6_input.c:479) ip6_input_finish (net/ipv6/ip6_input.c:534) ip6_input (include/linux/netfilter.h:325 include/linux/netfilter.h:319 net/ipv6/ip6_input.c:545) ipv6_rcv (include/net/dst.h:481 net/ipv6/ip6_input.c:119 include/linux/netfilter.h:325 include/linux/netfilter.h:319 net/ipv6/ip6_input.c:351) Freed by task 5074 on cpu 0 at 15.412249s: kmem_cache_free (include/linux/kasan.h:235 mm/slub.c:2780 mm/slub.c:6630 mm/slub.c:6757) tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock (net/ipv6/tcp_ipv6.c:1528) tcp_check_req (net/ipv4/tcp_minisocks.c:934) tcp_v6_rcv (net/ipv6/tcp_ipv6.c:1826) ip6_protocol_deliver_rcu (net/ipv6/ip6_input.c:479) ip6_input_finish (net/ipv6/ip6_input.c:534) Request socket migration has the same issue: reqsk_migrate_reset() transfers ireq->pktopts to the clone, which can be freed while another cpu holding a reference on the old request socket is still sending a SYNACK. The SYNACK timer itself is not an issue, because inet_csk_reqsk_queue_drop() calls timer_delete_sync(). Save the flowlabel of the SYN in the request socket instead, so that tcp_v6_send_synack() no longer needs ireq->pktopts. As a side effect, the flowlabel is also reflected for SYN packets reusing a TIME_WAIT socket, as ireq->pktopts is not set in this case. Fixes: e994b2f0fb92 ("tcp: do not lock listener to process SYN packets") Fixes: 079096f103fa ("tcp/dccp: install syn_recv requests into ehash table") Fixes: c905dee62232 ("tcp: Migrate TCP_NEW_SYN_RECV requests at retransmitting SYN+ACKs.")
