commit e03781879a0d524ce3126678d50a80484a513c4b upstream.

The "NET_DM" generic netlink family notifies drop locations over the
"events" multicast group. This is problematic since by default generic
netlink allows non-root users to listen to these notifications.

Fix by adding a new field to the generic netlink multicast group
structure that when set prevents non-root users or root without the
'CAP_SYS_ADMIN' capability (in the user namespace owning the network
namespace) from joining the group. Set this field for the "events"
group. Use 'CAP_SYS_ADMIN' rather than 'CAP_NET_ADMIN' because of the
nature of the information that is shared over this group.

Note that the capability check in this case will always be performed
against the initial user namespace since the family is not netns aware
and only operates in the initial network namespace.

A new field is added to the structure rather than using the "flags"
field because the existing field uses uAPI flags and it is inappropriate
to add a new uAPI flag for an internal kernel check. In net-next we can
rework the "flags" field to use internal flags and fold the new field
into it. But for now, in order to reduce the amount of changes, add a
new field.

Since the information can only be consumed by root, mark the control
plane operations that start and stop the tracing as root-only using the
'GENL_ADMIN_PERM' flag.

Tested using [1].

This is a partial backport of upstream commit 4d54cc32112d ("mptcp:
avoid lock_fast usage in accept path"). It is only a partial backport
because the patch in the link below was erroneously squash-merged into
upstream commit 4d54cc32112d ("mptcp: avoid lock_fast usage in accept
path"). Below is the original patch description from Florian Westphal:

"
genetlink sets NL_CFG_F_NONROOT_RECV for its netlink socket so anyone can
subscribe to multicast messages.

rtnetlink doesn't allow this unconditionally,  rtnetlink_bind() restricts
bind requests to CAP_NET_ADMIN for a few groups.

This allows to set GENL_UNS_ADMIN_PERM flag on genl mcast groups to
mandate CAP_NET_ADMIN.

This will be used by the upcoming mptcp netlink event facility which
exposes the token (mptcp connection identifier) to userspace.

<title>netlink: don't call -&gt;netlink_bind with table lock held</title>

From: Florian Westphal &lt;fw@strlen.de&gt;

commit f2764bd4f6a8dffaec3e220728385d9756b3c2cb upstream.

When I added support to allow generic netlink multicast groups to be
restricted to subscribers with CAP_NET_ADMIN I was unaware that a
genl_bind implementation already existed in the past.

It was reverted due to ABBA deadlock:

1. -&gt;netlink_bind gets called with the table lock held.
2. genetlink bind callback is invoked, it grabs the genl lock.

But when a new genl subsystem is (un)registered, these two locks are
taken in reverse order.

One solution would be to revert again and add a comment in genl
referring 1e82a62fec613, "genetlink: remove genl_bind").

This would need a second change in mptcp to not expose the raw token
value anymore, e.g.  by hashing the token with a secret key so userspace
can still associate subflow events with the correct mptcp connection.

However, Paolo Abeni reminded me to double-check why the netlink table is
locked in the first place.

I can't find one.  netlink_bind() is already called without this lock
when userspace joins a group via NETLINK_ADD_MEMBERSHIP setsockopt.
Same holds for the netlink_unbind operation.

Digging through the history, commit f773608026ee1
("netlink: access nlk groups safely in netlink bind and getname")
expanded the lock scope.

commit 3a20773beeeeade ("net: netlink: cap max groups which will be considered in netlink_bind()")
... removed the nlk-&gt;ngroups access that the lock scope
extension was all about.

Reduce the lock scope again and always call -&gt;netlink_bind without
the table lock.

The Fixes tag should be vs. the patch mentioned in the link below,
but that one got squash-merged into the patch that came earlier in the
series.

[ Upstream commit 25a9c8a4431c364f97f75558cb346d2ad3f53fbb ]

syzbot reported a warning in __local_bh_enable_ip(). [0]

Commit 8d61f926d420 ("netlink: fix potential deadlock in
netlink_set_err()") converted read_lock(&amp;nl_table_lock) to
read_lock_irqsave() in __netlink_diag_dump() to prevent a deadlock.

However, __netlink_diag_dump() calls sock_i_ino() that uses
read_lock_bh() and read_unlock_bh().  If CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS=y,
read_unlock_bh() finally enables IRQ even though it should stay
disabled until the following read_unlock_irqrestore().

Using read_lock() in sock_i_ino() would trigger a lockdep splat
in another place that was fixed in commit f064af1e500a ("net: fix
a lockdep splat"), so let's add __sock_i_ino() that would be safe
to use under BH disabled.

A similar issue was fixed in commit 1d482e666b8e ("netlink: disable IRQs

This patch adds IRQ safety to netlink_set_err() and __netlink_diag_dump()
which were not covered by cited commit.

[ Upstream commit d5076fe4049cadef1f040eda4aaa001bb5424225 ]

netlink_recvmsg() does not need to change transport header.

If transport header was needed, it should have been reset
by the producer (netlink_dump()), not the consumer(s).

The following trace probably happened when multiple threads
were using MSG_PEEK.

[ Upstream commit 99c07327ae11e24886d552dddbe4537bfca2765d ]

netlink_dump() is allocating an skb, reserves space in it
but forgets to reset network header.

This allows a BPF program, invoked later from sk_filter()
to access uninitialized kernel memory from the reserved
space.

Theorically mac header reset could be omitted, because
it is set to a special initial value.
bpf_internal_load_pointer_neg_helper calls skb_mac_header()
without checking skb_mac_header_was_set().
Relying on skb-&gt;len not being too big seems fragile.
We also could add a sanity check in bpf_internal_load_pointer_neg_helper()
to avoid surprises in the future.

syzbot report was:
