commit 48f6a5356a33dd78e7144ae1faef95ffc990aae0 upstream.

Two frag-transfer helpers (__pskb_copy_fclone() and skb_shift()) fail
to propagate the SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG bit in skb_shinfo()->flags when
moving frags from source to destination.  __pskb_copy_fclone() defers
the rest of the shinfo metadata to skb_copy_header() after copying
frag descriptors, but that helper only carries over gso_{size,segs,
type} and never touches skb_shinfo()->flags; skb_shift() moves frag
descriptors directly and leaves flags untouched.  As a result, the
destination skb keeps a reference to the same externally-owned or
page-cache-backed pages while reporting skb_has_shared_frag() as
false.

The mismatch is harmful in any in-place writer that uses
skb_has_shared_frag() to decide whether shared pages must be detoured
through skb_cow_data().  ESP input is one such writer (esp4.c,
esp6.c), and a single nft 'dup to <local>' rule -- or any other
nf_dup_ipv4() / xt_TEE caller -- is enough to land a pskb_copy()'d
skb in esp_input() with the marker stripped, letting an unprivileged
user write into the page cache of a root-owned read-only file via
authencesn-ESN stray writes.

Set SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG on the destination whenever frag descriptors
were actually moved from the source.  skb_copy() and skb_copy_expand()
share skb_copy_header() too but linearize all paged data into freshly
allocated head storage and emerge with nr_frags == 0, so
skb_has_shared_frag() returns false on its own; they need no change.

The same omission exists in skb_gro_receive() and skb_gro_receive_list().
The former moves the incoming skb's frag descriptors into the
accumulator's last sub-skb via two paths (a direct frag-move loop and
the head_frag + memcpy path); the latter chains the incoming skb whole
onto p's frag_list.  Downstream skb_segment() reads only
skb_shinfo(p)->flags, and skb_segment_list() reuses each sub-skb's
shinfo as the nskb -- both p and lp must carry the marker.

The same omission also exists in tcp_clone_payload(), which builds an
MTU probe skb by moving frag descriptors from skbs on sk_write_queue
into a freshly allocated nskb.  The helper falls into the same family
and warrants the same fix for consistency; no TCP TX-side in-place
writer is currently known to reach a user page through this gap, but
a future consumer depending on the marker would regress silently.

The same omission exists in skb_segment(): the per-iteration flag
merge takes only head_skb's flag, and the inner switch that rebinds
frag_skb to list_skb on head_skb-frags exhaustion does not fold the
new frag_skb's flag into nskb.  Fold frag_skb's flag at both sites
so segments drawing frags from frag_list members carry the marker.

[ Upstream commit 5ef343614db766acdc01c56d66e780a1b43c6ac6 ]

When page_pool_create_percpu() fails on page_pool_list(), it falls
through to its err_uninit: label, which calls page_pool_uninit().
At that point page_pool_init() has already taken two references
when the user requested PP_FLAG_ALLOW_UNREADABLE_NETMEM:

	pool->mp_ops->init(pool)
	static_branch_inc(&page_pool_mem_providers);

Neither is undone by page_pool_uninit(); both are only undone by
__page_pool_destroy() (success-side teardown). The error path
therefore leaks the per-provider reference taken by mp_ops->init
(io_zcrx_ifq->refs in the io_uring zcrx provider, the dmabuf
binding refcount in the devmem provider) plus one increment of
the page_pool_mem_providers static branch on every failure of
xa_alloc_cyclic() inside page_pool_list().

The leaked io_zcrx_ifq->refs in turn pins everything
io_zcrx_ifq_free() would release on cleanup: ifq->user (uid),
ifq->mm_account (mmdrop), ifq->dev (device refcount),
ifq->netdev_tracker (netdev refcount), and the rbuf region.
The leaked static branch increment forces all subsequent
page_pool_alloc_netmems() and page_pool_return_page() callers to
take the slow mp_ops branch for the lifetime of the kernel.

Reachable via the io_uring zcrx path:

	io_uring_register(IORING_REGISTER_ZCRX_IFQ)  /* CAP_NET_ADMIN */
	  -> __io_uring_register
	  -> io_register_zcrx
	  -> zcrx_register_netdev
	  -> netif_mp_open_rxq
	  -> driver ndo_queue_mem_alloc
	  -> page_pool_create_percpu
	    -> page_pool_init succeeds (mp_ops->init runs, branch++)
	    -> page_pool_list fails (xa_alloc_cyclic -ENOMEM)
	    -> goto err_uninit         <-- leak

The same shape applies to the devmem dmabuf provider via
mp_dmabuf_devmem_init()/mp_dmabuf_devmem_destroy().

Restore the cleanup symmetry by moving the mp_ops->destroy() and
static_branch_dec() calls out of __page_pool_destroy() and into
page_pool_uninit(), so page_pool_uninit() is again the strict
inverse of page_pool_init(). page_pool_uninit() has only two
callers (the err_uninit: path and __page_pool_destroy()), so this
preserves the single-call invariant on the success path while
fixing the err path. The error path of page_pool_init() itself
still skips the mp_ops cleanup correctly: mp_ops->init is the
last action that takes a reference before page_pool_init() returns
0, so when it returns an error neither the refcount nor the static
branch has been touched.

Triggering the bug requires xa_alloc_cyclic() to fail with -ENOMEM,
which under normal GFP_KERNEL retry behaviour is rare. It is
deterministic under CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION with fail_page_alloc /
xa fault injection, or under sustained memory pressure. The leak
is silent: there is no warning, and the released kernel build
continues running with a permanently-incremented static branch.

due to % having higher precedence than +. That latter evaluation does
not make any sense. The intended check is (offset + ip_align) % size == 0
to verify that the packet load offset is properly aligned for direct
access.

With NET_IP_ALIGN == 2, the bug causes the inline fast-path for direct
packet loads to almost never be taken on !CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS
platforms. This forces nearly all cBPF BPF_LD_ABS packet loads through
the bpf_skb_load_helper slow path on the affected archs.

[ Upstream commit 1921f91298d1388a0bb9db8f83800c998b649cb3 ]

syzkaller reported a kernel panic in bond_rr_gen_slave_id() reached via
xdp_master_redirect(). Full decoded trace:

  https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=80e046b8da2820b6ba73

bond_rr_gen_slave_id() dereferences bond->rr_tx_counter, a per-CPU
counter that bonding only allocates in bond_open() when the mode is
round-robin. If the bond device was never brought up, rr_tx_counter
stays NULL.

The XDP redirect path can still reach that code on a bond that was
never opened: bpf_master_redirect_enabled_key is a global static key,
so as soon as any bond device has native XDP attached, the
XDP_TX -> xdp_master_redirect() interception is enabled for every
slave system-wide. The path xdp_master_redirect() ->
bond_xdp_get_xmit_slave() -> bond_xdp_xmit_roundrobin_slave_get() ->
bond_rr_gen_slave_id() then runs against a bond that has no
rr_tx_counter and crashes.

Fix this in the generic xdp_master_redirect() by refusing to call into
the master's ->ndo_xdp_get_xmit_slave() when the master device is not
up. IFF_UP is only set after ->ndo_open() has successfully returned,
so this reliably excludes masters whose XDP state has not been fully

netpoll: pass buffer size to egress_dev() to avoid MAC truncation 2026-05-14T13:30:16+00:00 Breno Leitao leitao@debian.org 2026-05-01T09:58:41+00:00 3d47d62c134801eb260c2573ba9e5c4eb0651eb8 commit 76b93a8107574006b25495664304ea9237494d70 upstream. egress_dev() formats np->dev_mac via snprintf() but receives buf as a bare char *, so it cannot derive the buffer size from the pointer.

commit 76b93a8107574006b25495664304ea9237494d70 upstream.

egress_dev() formats np->dev_mac via snprintf() but receives buf as
a bare char *, so it cannot derive the buffer size from the pointer. The
size argument was hardcoded to MAC_ADDR_STR_LEN (3 * ETH_ALEN - 1 = 17),
which is silly wrong in two ways:

 1) misleading kernel log output on the MAC-selected target path
    (np->dev_name[0] == '\0'); for example "aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff doesn't
    exist, aborting" was logged as "aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:f doesn't exist,
    aborting".

 2) the second argument of snprintf is the size of the buffer, not the
    size of what you want to write.

Add a bufsz parameter to egress_dev() and pass sizeof(buf) from each
caller, matching the standard snprintf() idiom and removing the
hardcoded size from the helper.

Every caller already declares "char buf[MAC_ADDR_STR_LEN + 1]" so the
formatted MAC continues to fit.

Tested by booting with
  netconsole=6665@/aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff,6666@10.0.0.1/00:11:22:33:44:55

"aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:f doesn't exist, aborting"; post-fix shows the full

commit 4b9e327991815e128ad3af75c3a04630a63ce3e0 upstream.

rtnl_fill_vfinfo() declares struct ifla_vf_broadcast on the stack
without initialisation:

	struct ifla_vf_broadcast vf_broadcast;

The struct contains a single fixed 32-byte field:

	/* include/uapi/linux/if_link.h */
	struct ifla_vf_broadcast {
		__u8 broadcast[32];
	};

The function then copies dev->broadcast into it using dev->addr_len
as the length:

	memcpy(vf_broadcast.broadcast, dev->broadcast, dev->addr_len);

On Ethernet devices (the overwhelming majority of SR-IOV NICs)
dev->addr_len is 6, so only the first 6 bytes of broadcast[] are
written. The remaining 26 bytes retain whatever was previously on
the kernel stack. The full struct is then handed to userspace via:

	nla_put(skb, IFLA_VF_BROADCAST,
		sizeof(vf_broadcast), &vf_broadcast)

leaking up to 26 bytes of uninitialised kernel stack per VF per
RTM_GETLINK request, repeatable.

The other vf_* structs in the same function are explicitly zeroed
for exactly this reason - see the memset() calls for ivi,
vf_vlan_info, node_guid and port_guid a few lines above.
vf_broadcast was simply missed when it was added.

Reachability: any unprivileged local process can open AF_NETLINK /
NETLINK_ROUTE without capabilities and send RTM_GETLINK with an
IFLA_EXT_MASK attribute carrying RTEXT_FILTER_VF. The kernel walks
each VF and emits IFLA_VF_BROADCAST, leaking 26 bytes of stack per
VF per request. Stack residue at this call site can include return
addresses and transient sensitive data; KASAN with stack
instrumentation, or KMSAN, will flag the nla_put() when reproduced.

Zero the on-stack struct before the partial memcpy, matching the
existing pattern used for the other vf_* structs in the same
function.
