Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf, sockmap: Fix memleak in sk_psock_queue_msg If tcp_bpf_sendmsg is running during a tear down operation we may enqueue
data on the ingress msg queue while tear down is trying to free it. sk1 (redirect sk2) sk2 ------------------- ---------------
tcp_bpf_sendmsg() tcp_bpf_send_verdict() tcp_bpf_sendmsg_redir() bpf_tcp_ingress() sock_map_close() lock_sock() lock_sock() ... blocking sk_psock_stop sk_psock_clear_state(psock, SK_PSOCK_TX_ENABLED); release_sock(sk); lock_sock() sk_mem_charge() get_page() sk_psock_queue_msg() sk_psock_test_state(psock, SK_PSOCK_TX_ENABLED); drop_sk_msg() release_sock() While drop_sk_msg(), the msg has charged memory form sk by sk_mem_charge
and has sg pages need to put. To fix we use sk_msg_free() and then kfee()
msg. This issue can cause the following info:
