netfilter: always set route tuple out ifindex

2026-08-19T16:18:21+00:00

commit 2bdc536c9da7fa08baf0fafe9d91243b83cb9c8b upstream. Always set nf_flow_route tuple out ifindex even if the indev is not one of the flowtable configured devices since otherwise the outdev lookup in nf_flow_offload_ip_hook() or nf_flow_offload_ipv6_hook() for FLOW_OFFLOAD_XMIT_NEIGH flowtable entries will fail. The above issue occurs in the following configuration since IP6IP6 tunnel does not support flowtable acceleration yet: $ip addr show 5: eth0: mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP group default qlen 1000 link/ether 00:11:22:33:22:55 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff link-netns ns1 inet6 2001:db8:1::2/64 scope global nodad valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever inet6 fe80::211:22ff:fe33:2255/64 scope link tentative proto kernel_ll valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever 6: eth1: mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP group default qlen 1000 link/ether 00:22:22:33:22:55 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff link-netns ns3 inet6 2001:db8:2::1/64 scope global nodad valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever inet6 fe80::222:22ff:fe33:2255/64 scope link tentative proto kernel_ll valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever 7: tun0@NONE: mtu 1452 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000 link/tunnel6 2001:db8:2::1 peer 2001:db8:2::2 permaddr a85:e732:2c37:: inet6 2002:db8:1::1/64 scope global nodad valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever inet6 fe80::885:e7ff:fe32:2c37/64 scope link proto kernel_ll valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever $ip -6 route show 2001:db8:1::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium 2001:db8:2::/64 dev eth1 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium 2002:db8:1::/64 dev tun0 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium default via 2002:db8:1::2 dev tun0 metric 1024 pref medium $nft list ruleset table inet filter { flowtable ft { hook ingress priority filter devices = { eth0, eth1 } } chain forward { type filter hook forward priority filter; policy accept; meta l4proto { tcp, udp } flow add @ft } } Fixes: b5964aac51e0 ("netfilter: flowtable: consolidate xmit path") Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Bianconi Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

thunderbolt: Fix bandwidth group reservation indexing

2026-08-19T16:18:21+00:00

commit d2ee4d47aacbd2ba456092eeec670dba35fde291 upstream. Valid bandwidth group IDs range from 1 through MAX_GROUPS, while Group ID 0 is reserved. tb_consumed_dp_bandwidth() uses the Group ID directly to index its local group_reserved[] array. The array currently has MAX_GROUPS entries, so its valid indices are 0 through MAX_GROUPS - 1. Group ID MAX_GROUPS therefore accesses one element past the end, and the final group's reserved bandwidth is not included when the array is summed. Give group_reserved[] MAX_GROUPS + 1 entries so direct Group ID indexing covers the reserved ID 0 and valid IDs 1 through MAX_GROUPS.

thunderbolt: Bound the DROM dual link port number before indexing sw->ports

2026-08-19T16:18:21+00:00

commit d6764992f17b23d91ff93ce905ab53c2aa7191f0 upstream. tb_drom_parse_entry_port() validates the device-supplied header->index against sw->config.max_port_number before indexing sw->ports[], but the sibling field entry->dual_link_port_nr -- a 6-bit value also read from the DROM -- indexes the same array with no such check. A malicious or malformed Thunderbolt device can set dual_link_port_nr beyond the allocated sw->ports[] (max_port_number + 1 entries), producing an out-of-bounds tb_port pointer that is stored and later dereferenced. Reject a port entry whose dual_link_port_nr exceeds max_port_number, the same bound already applied to header->index. Fixes: cd22e73bdf5e ("thunderbolt: Read port configuration from eeprom.")

sctp: clear new_transport when removing a peer

2026-08-19T16:18:21+00:00

commit beb33f8ee1ca83acddb2a5ae80f3d22ec550b4c3 upstream. sctp_process_asconf_param() stores a newly added peer transport in asoc->new_transport. After all parameters in the ASCONF chunk have been processed, sctp_sf_do_asconf() uses this pointer to send a HEARTBEAT to the new transport. An authenticated ASCONF from a remote SCTP peer can add a transport and remove it again with a wildcard DEL-IP parameter in the same chunk. The wildcard deletion preserves the transport on which the ASCONF arrived, but removes the newly added transport through sctp_assoc_del_nonprimary_peers(). The removal does not clear asoc->new_transport, leaving it pointing to the removed transport. sctp_sf_do_asconf() then creates a HEARTBEAT whose chunk->transport points to the removed transport without holding a transport reference. During local address replacement, src_out_of_asoc_ok keeps this HEARTBEAT on control_chunk_list. After the transport is freed by RCU, a successful ASCONF_ACK for the replacement address releases the queued HEARTBEAT and sctp_outq_select_transport() reads the freed transport's state. The issue was found during a static audit of SCTP objects. With an authenticated peer, the reproducer triggered the same KASAN report in 2 of 2 unpatched runs on a KASAN-enabled netdev/main kernel: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in sctp_outq_select_transport Read of size 4 at addr ffff88800b9bd95c by task python3/197 Call Trace: sctp_outq_select_transport+0x549/0x8b0 [sctp] sctp_outq_flush+0x306/0x2c60 [sctp] sctp_transport_immediate_rtx+0xaf/0x260 [sctp] sctp_process_asconf_ack+0xa48/0xf70 [sctp] Allocated by task 197: sctp_transport_new+0x68/0x650 [sctp] sctp_assoc_add_peer+0x258/0x12a0 [sctp] sctp_process_asconf+0x5e9/0x1090 [sctp] Last potentially related work creation: __call_rcu_common.constprop.0+0x77/0xb70 sctp_assoc_del_nonprimary_peers+0x7c/0xd0 [sctp] sctp_process_asconf+0xd9c/0x1090 [sctp] The first invalid access was a four-byte read of transport->state at net/sctp/outqueue.c:833.

sctp: fix use-after-free of cached ASCONF chunk

2026-08-19T16:18:21+00:00

commit 8c283e7b56adce00193837f3311b06662466fb21 upstream. addip_last_asconf caches the outstanding outbound ASCONF chunk. The normal ASCONF-ACK completion path releases the chunk and clears the pointer. However, sctp_asconf_queue_teardown() releases the cached chunk without clearing addip_last_asconf. During peer restart handling, sctp_sf_do_dupcook_a() queues SCTP_CMD_PURGE_ASCONF_QUEUE, which invokes sctp_asconf_queue_teardown() while the association remains alive and leaves the pointer dangling. A delayed authenticated ASCONF-ACK can then reach sctp_sf_do_asconf_ack(), which accesses the stale chunk and passes it to sctp_process_asconf_ack(), causing a use-after-free and a second release. Clearing the pointer exposes a race with T4 expiry. Peer restart handling queues the timer stop before the purge, but SCTP_CMD_TIMER_STOP uses timer_delete(), which does not wait for a callback already running on another CPU. Such a callback can reach sctp_sf_t4_timer_expire() after the purge and dereference NULL. Clear addip_last_asconf after releasing the cached chunk, and make sctp_sf_t4_timer_expire() consume a stale T4 expiry if no outstanding ASCONF remains.

sctp: keep chunk->transport in step with the list it is queued on

2026-08-19T16:18:20+00:00

commit 9f2cf069a9a72a2d6b97ca8b4c70e714aac99749 upstream. __sctp_outq_flush_rtx() moves a gap-acked chunk onto another transport's transmitted list without updating chunk->transport: if (chunk->tsn_gap_acked) { list_move_tail(&chunk->transmitted_list, &transport->transmitted); continue; } The chunk then sits on a live transport's list while chunk->transport still names a different one. If that transport is removed - sctp_assoc_rm_peer() from an ASCONF Delete-IP - sctp_transport_free() RCU-frees it and the chunk is left with a dangling pointer. sctp_assoc_rm_peer() scrubs peer->transmitted and asoc->outqueue.out_chunk_list, but the chunk is on neither. The pointer is not followed while tsn_gap_acked is set. A SACK that reneges on the TSN clears the flag, and the next SACK reaches tchunk->transport->flight_size -= sctp_data_size(tchunk); inside the freed transport. KASAN reports a slab-use-after-free read in sctp_check_transmitted(), freed from sctp_assoc_rm_peer(). Both the removal and the SACKs come from the association peer. Set chunk->transport at the move. The ordinary resend path needs nothing: it reaches its list_move_tail() only after sctp_packet_append_chunk() returned SCTP_XMIT_OK, and __sctp_packet_append_chunk() has rebound the chunk by then.

scsi: scsi_debug: Negate wrapped memcmp() result

commit c4f6916a99cf105c3ff340b6210fcbba3fa66b35 upstream. comp_write_worker() returns true when the compared data matches. memcmp() returns zero for equal data and non-zero for different data, so its result must be negated before it is stored in a bool. The first segment already uses !memcmp(), but the wrapped segment uses memcmp() directly, reversing the match result. Use !memcmp() there as well.

bpf, sockmap: Fix sk_redir use-after-free in send verdict

2026-08-19T16:18:20+00:00

commit a76624733730e541e4955fdecf506af2f6b20558 upstream. sk_psock_msg_verdict() takes a socket reference for psock->sk_redir. tcp_bpf_send_verdict() copies that pointer while holding the source socket lock, but does not take a reference for the local copy before dropping the lock around tcp_bpf_sendmsg_redir(). When apply_bytes keeps the cached verdict active, another sendmsg() on the same source socket can consume the remaining bytes and release the cached reference while the first thread still holds only the raw local pointer: CPU 0 CPU 1 sk_redir = psock->sk_redir apply_bytes remains nonzero release_sock(sk) lock_sock(sk) apply_bytes reaches zero psock->sk_redir = NULL release_sock(sk) tcp_bpf_sendmsg_redir(sk_redir) sock_put(sk_redir) tcp_bpf_sendmsg_redir(sk_redir) The final sock_put() can free sk_redir before CPU 0 dereferences it.
