[ Upstream commit ef816f3c49c1c404ababc50e10d4cbe5109da678 ]

Previous commit introduced helper function for updating qstats and
refactored set of actions to use the helpers, instead of modifying qstats
directly. However, one of the affected action exposes its qstats to
skb_tc_reinsert(), which then modifies it.

Refactor skb_tc_reinsert() to return integer error code and don't increment
overlimit qstats in case of error, and use the returned error code in
tcf_mirred_act() to manually increment the overlimit counter with new
helper function.

Extract common code that increments cpu_qstats counters into standalone act
API functions. Change hardware offloaded actions that use percpu counter
allocation to use the new functions instead of accessing cpu_qstats
directly.

[ Upstream commit c8ecebd04cbb6badb46d42fe54282e7883ed63cc ]

Currently, all implementations of tc_action_ops-&gt;stats_update() callback
have almost exactly the same implementation of counters update
code (besides gact which also updates drop counter). In order to simplify
support for using both percpu-allocated and regular action counters
depending on run-time flag in following patches, extract action counters
update code into standalone function in act API.

This commit doesn't change functionality.

To trigger gso segment in udp_queue_rcv_skb(), we should also set option
UDP_ENCAP_ESPINUDP to enable udp_sk(sk)-&gt;encap_rcv. When the encap_rcv
hook return 1 in udp_queue_rcv_one_skb(), udp_csum_pull_header() will try
to pull udphdr, but the skb size has been segmented to gso size, which
leads to this crash.

Previous commit cf329aa42b66 ("udp: cope with UDP GRO packet misdirection")
introduces segmentation in UDP receive path only for GRO, which was never
intended to be used for UFO, so drop UFO packets in udp_rcv_segment().

To trigger gso segment in udp_queue_rcv_skb(), we should also set option
UDP_ENCAP_ESPINUDP to enable udp_sk(sk)-&gt;encap_rcv. When the encap_rcv
hook return 1 in udp_queue_rcv_one_skb(), udp_csum_pull_header() will try
to pull udphdr, but the skb size has been segmented to gso size, which
leads to this crash.

Previous commit cf329aa42b66 ("udp: cope with UDP GRO packet misdirection")
introduces segmentation in UDP receive path only for GRO, which was never
intended to be used for UFO, so drop UFO packets in udp_rcv_segment().

<title>netfilter: nf_tables: do not defer rule destruction via call_rcu</title>

commit b04df3da1b5c6f6dc7cdccc37941740c078c4043 upstream.

nf_tables_chain_destroy can sleep, it can't be used from call_rcu
callbacks.

Moreover, nf_tables_rule_release() is only safe for error unwinding,
while transaction mutex is held and the to-be-desroyed rule was not
exposed to either dataplane or dumps, as it deactives+frees without
the required synchronize_rcu() in-between.

nft_rule_expr_deactivate() callbacks will change -&gt;use counters
of other chains/sets, see e.g. nft_lookup .deactivate callback, these
must be serialized via transaction mutex.

Also add a few lockdep asserts to make this more explicit.

Calling synchronize_rcu() isn't ideal, but fixing this without is hard
and way more intrusive.  As-is, we can get:

WARNING: .. net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c:5515 nft_set_destroy+0x..
Workqueue: events nf_tables_trans_destroy_work
RIP: 0010:nft_set_destroy+0x3fe/0x5c0

 &lt;TASK&gt;
 nf_tables_trans_destroy_work+0x6b7/0xad0
 process_one_work+0x64a/0xce0
 worker_thread+0x613/0x10d0

In case the synchronize_rcu becomes an issue, we can explore alternatives.

One way would be to allocate nft_trans_rule objects + one nft_trans_chain
object, deactivate the rules + the chain and then defer the freeing to the
nft destroy workqueue.  We'd still need to keep the synchronize_rcu path as
a fallback to handle -ENOMEM corner cases though.

commit c03d278fdf35e73dd0ec543b9b556876b9d9a8dc upstream.

8c873e219970 ("netfilter: core: free hooks with call_rcu") removed
synchronize_net() call when unregistering basechain hook, however,
net_device removal event handler for the NFPROTO_NETDEV was not updated
to wait for RCU grace period.

Note that 835b803377f5 ("netfilter: nf_tables_netdev: unregister hooks
on net_device removal") does not remove basechain rules on device
removal, I was hinted to remove rules on net_device removal later, see
5ebe0b0eec9d ("netfilter: nf_tables: destroy basechain and rules on
netdevice removal").

Although NETDEV_UNREGISTER event is guaranteed to be handled after
synchronize_net() call, this path needs to wait for rcu grace period via
rcu callback to release basechain hooks if netns is alive because an
ongoing netlink dump could be in progress (sockets hold a reference on
the netns).

Note that nf_tables_pre_exit_net() unregisters and releases basechain
hooks but it is possible to see NETDEV_UNREGISTER at a later stage in
the netns exit path, eg. veth peer device in another netns:

 cleanup_net()
  default_device_exit_batch()
   unregister_netdevice_many_notify()
    notifier_call_chain()
     nf_tables_netdev_event()
      __nft_release_basechain()

In this particular case, same rule of thumb applies: if netns is alive,
then wait for rcu grace period because netlink dump in the other netns
could be in progress. Otherwise, if the other netns is going away then
no netlink dump can be in progress and basechain hooks can be released
inmediately.

While at it, turn WARN_ON() into WARN_ON_ONCE() for the basechain
validation, which should not ever happen.

<title>sctp: detect and prevent references to a freed transport in sendmsg</title>

commit f1a69a940de58b16e8249dff26f74c8cc59b32be upstream.

sctp_sendmsg() re-uses associations and transports when possible by
doing a lookup based on the socket endpoint and the message destination
address, and then sctp_sendmsg_to_asoc() sets the selected transport in
all the message chunks to be sent.

There's a possible race condition if another thread triggers the removal
of that selected transport, for instance, by explicitly unbinding an
address with setsockopt(SCTP_SOCKOPT_BINDX_REM), after the chunks have
been set up and before the message is sent. This can happen if the send
buffer is full, during the period when the sender thread temporarily
releases the socket lock in sctp_wait_for_sndbuf().

This causes the access to the transport data in
sctp_outq_select_transport(), when the association outqueue is flushed,
to result in a use-after-free read.

This change avoids this scenario by having sctp_transport_free() signal
the freeing of the transport, tagging it as "dead". In order to do this,
the patch restores the "dead" bit in struct sctp_transport, which was
removed in
commit 47faa1e4c50e ("sctp: remove the dead field of sctp_transport").

Then, in the scenario where the sender thread has released the socket
lock in sctp_wait_for_sndbuf(), the bit is checked again after
re-acquiring the socket lock to detect the deletion. This is done while
holding a reference to the transport to prevent it from being freed in
the process.

If the transport was deleted while the socket lock was relinquished,
sctp_sendmsg_to_asoc() will return -EAGAIN to let userspace retry the
send.

The bug was found by a private syzbot instance (see the error report [1]
and the C reproducer that triggers it [2]).
