      sctp: fix race on protocol/netns initialization · 75113254
      Marcelo Ricardo Leitner authored
      commit 8e2d61e0 upstream.
      
      Consider sctp module is unloaded and is being requested because an user
      is creating a sctp socket.
      
      During initialization, sctp will add the new protocol type and then
      initialize pernet subsys:
      
              status = sctp_v4_protosw_init();
              if (status)
                      goto err_protosw_init;
      
              status = sctp_v6_protosw_init();
              if (status)
                      goto err_v6_protosw_init;
      
              status = register_pernet_subsys(&sctp_net_ops);
      
      The problem is that after those calls to sctp_v{4,6}_protosw_init(), it
      is possible for userspace to create SCTP sockets like if the module is
      already fully loaded. If that happens, one of the possible effects is
      that we will have readers for net->sctp.local_addr_list list earlier
      than expected and sctp_net_init() does not take precautions while
      dealing with that list, leading to a potential panic but not limited to
      that, as sctp_sock_init() will copy a bunch of blank/partially
      initialized values from net->sctp.
      
      The race happens like this:
      
           CPU 0                           |  CPU 1
        socket()                           |
         __sock_create                     | socket()
          inet_create                      |  __sock_create
           list_for_each_entry_rcu(        |
              answer, &inetsw[sock->type], |
              list) {                      |   inet_create
            /* no hits */                  |
           if (unlikely(err)) {            |
            ...                            |
            request_module()               |
            /* socket creation is blocked  |
             * the module is fully loaded  |
             */                            |
             sctp_init                     |
              sctp_v4_protosw_init         |
               inet_register_protosw       |
                list_add_rcu(&p->list,     |
                             last_perm);   |
                                           |  list_for_each_entry_rcu(
                                           |     answer, &inetsw[sock->type],
              sctp_v6_protosw_init         |     list) {
                                           |     /* hit, so assumes protocol
                                           |      * is already loaded
                                           |      */
                                           |  /* socket creation continues
                                           |   * before netns is initialized
                                           |   */
              register_pernet_subsys       |
      
      Simply inverting the initialization order between
      register_pernet_subsys() and sctp_v4_protosw_init() is not possible
      because register_pernet_subsys() will create a control sctp socket, so
      the protocol must be already visible by then. Deferring the socket
      creation to a work-queue is not good specially because we loose the
      ability to handle its errors.
      
      So, as suggested by Vlad, the fix is to split netns initialization in
      two moments: defaults and control socket, so that the defaults are
      already loaded by when we register the protocol, while control socket
      initialization is kept at the same moment it is today.

      vfs: Test for and handle paths that are unreachable from their mnt_root · 29da259e
      Eric W. Biederman authored
      commit 397d425d upstream.
      
      In rare cases a directory can be renamed out from under a bind mount.
      In those cases without special handling it becomes possible to walk up
      the directory tree to the root dentry of the filesystem and down
      from the root dentry to every other file or directory on the filesystem.
      
      Like division by zero .. from an unconnected path can not be given
      a useful semantic as there is no predicting at which path component
      the code will realize it is unconnected.  We certainly can not match
      the current behavior as the current behavior is a security hole.
      
      Therefore when encounting .. when following an unconnected path
      return -ENOENT.
      
      - Add a function path_connected to verify path->dentry is reachable
        from path->mnt.mnt_root.  AKA to validate that rename did not do
        something nasty to the bind mount.
      
        To avoid races path_connected must be called after following a path
        component to it's next path component.

      dcache: Handle escaped paths in prepend_path · df50ffca
      Eric W. Biederman authored
      commit cde93be4 upstream.
      
      A rename can result in a dentry that by walking up d_parent
      will never reach it's mnt_root.  For lack of a better term
      I call this an escaped path.
      
      prepend_path is called by four different functions __d_path,
      d_absolute_path, d_path, and getcwd.
      
      __d_path only wants to see paths are connected to the root it passes
      in.  So __d_path needs prepend_path to return an error.
      
      d_absolute_path similarly wants to see paths that are connected to
      some root.  Escaped paths are not connected to any mnt_root so
      d_absolute_path needs prepend_path to return an error greater
      than 1.  So escaped paths will be treated like paths on lazily
      unmounted mounts.
      
      getcwd needs to prepend "(unreachable)" so getcwd also needs
      prepend_path to return an error.
      
      d_path is the interesting hold out.  d_path just wants to print
      something, and does not care about the weird cases.  Which raises
      the question what should be printed?
      
      Given that <escaped_path>/<anything> should result in -ENOENT I
      believe it is desirable for escaped paths to be printed as empty
      paths.  As there are not really any meaninful path components when
      considered from the perspective of a mount tree.
      
      So tweak prepend_path to return an empty path with an new error
      code of 3 when it encounters an escaped path.

      USB: whiteheat: fix potential null-deref at probe · 28f76f92
      Johan Hovold authored
      commit cbb4be65 upstream.
      
      Fix potential null-pointer dereference at probe by making sure that the
      required endpoints are present.
      
      The whiteheat driver assumes there are at least five pairs of bulk
      endpoints, of which the final pair is used for the "command port". An
      attempt to bind to an interface with fewer bulk endpoints would
      currently lead to an oops.
      
      Fixes CVE-2015-5257.

      net: gso: use feature flag argument in all protocol gso handlers · feb5b951
      Florian Westphal authored
      [ Upstream commit 1e16aa3d ]
      
      skb_gso_segment() has a 'features' argument representing offload features
      available to the output path.
      
      A few handlers, e.g. GRE, instead re-fetch the features of skb->dev and use
      those instead of the provided ones when handing encapsulation/tunnels.
      
      Depending on dev->hw_enc_features of the output device skb_gso_segment() can
      then return NULL even when the caller has disabled all GSO feature bits,
      as segmentation of inner header thinks device will take care of segmentation.
      
      This e.g. affects the tbf scheduler, which will silently drop GRE-encap GSO skbs
      that did not fit the remaining token quota as the segmentation does not work
      when device supports corresponding hw offload capabilities.

      net: Fix skb csum races when peeking · 79ac019c
      Herbert Xu authored
      [ Upstream commit 89c22d8c ]
      
      When we calculate the checksum on the recv path, we store the
      result in the skb as an optimisation in case we need the checksum
      again down the line.
      
      This is in fact bogus for the MSG_PEEK case as this is done without
      any locking.  So multiple threads can peek and then store the result
      to the same skb, potentially resulting in bogus skb states.
      
      This patch fixes this by only storing the result if the skb is not
      shared.  This preserves the optimisations for the few cases where
      it can be done safely due to locking or other reasons, e.g., SIOCINQ.
