commit bda3348872a2ef0d19f2df6aa8cb5025adce2f20 upstream.

tipc_aead_decrypt() goes straight from tipc_bearer_hold(b) to
crypto_aead_decrypt(req) without taking a reference on the netns, unlike
the encrypt path. When crypto_aead_decrypt() is offloaded asynchronously
(e.g. the SIMD aead wrapper queuing to cryptd), the cryptd worker runs
tipc_aead_decrypt_done() later. If the bearer's netns is torn down in the
meantime, cleanup_net() -&gt; tipc_exit_net() -&gt; tipc_crypto_stop() frees the
per-netns tipc_crypto, and the completion then reads it:
tipc_aead_decrypt_done() dereferences aead-&gt;crypto-&gt;stats and
aead-&gt;crypto-&gt;net, and tipc_crypto_rcv_complete() dereferences
aead-&gt;crypto-&gt;aead[] and the node table -- reading freed memory.

Decoded KASAN splat (v7.1-rc7, CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE + TIPC + TIPC_CRYPTO):

This is the same class of bug that commit e279024617134 ("net/tipc: fix
slab-use-after-free Read in tipc_aead_encrypt_done") fixed for the encrypt
side. The encrypt path takes maybe_get_net(aead-&gt;crypto-&gt;net) before
crypto_aead_encrypt() and drops it with put_net() on the synchronous
return paths and in tipc_aead_encrypt_done(); the -EINPROGRESS/-EBUSY
return keeps the reference for the async callback to release. The decrypt
path was left without the equivalent guard.

Mirror the encrypt-side fix on the decrypt path: take a net reference
before crypto_aead_decrypt() (failing with -ENODEV and the matching
bearer put if it cannot be acquired), keep it across the
-EINPROGRESS/-EBUSY async return, and drop it with put_net() on the
synchronous success/error return and at the end of
tipc_aead_decrypt_done().

Reproduced under KASAN on v7.1-rc7: a UDP bearer with a cluster key is
flooded with crafted encrypted frames from an unknown peer (driving the
cluster-key decrypt path) while the bearer's netns is repeatedly torn
down. The completion must run asynchronously to outlive
tipc_crypto_stop(); on x86 the stock aesni gcm(aes) now decrypts
synchronously, so the async path was exercised via cryptd offload. The
unguarded aead-&gt;crypto dereference in tipc_aead_decrypt_done() is the
unpatched upstream path; tipc_aead_decrypt() still lacks
maybe_get_net(aead-&gt;crypto-&gt;net), so the completion can outlive the free
on any config where crypto_aead_decrypt() goes async.

[ Upstream commit 6a65c0cb0ff20b3cbc5f1c87b37dd22cdde14a1c ]

tipc_aead_users_dec() calls rcu_dereference(aead) twice: once to store
in 'tmp' for the NULL check, and again inside the atomic_add_unless()
call.

Use the already-dereferenced 'tmp' pointer consistently, matching the
correct pattern used in tipc_aead_users_inc() and tipc_aead_users_set().

[ Upstream commit c8ef20fe7274c5766a317f9193b70bed717b6b3d ]

The tipc_aead_free() function currently uses kfree() to release the aead
structure. However, this structure contains sensitive information, such
as key's SALT value, which should be securely erased from memory to
prevent potential leakage.

To enhance security, replace kfree() with kfree_sensitive() when freeing
the aead structure. This change ensures that sensitive data is explicitly
cleared before memory deallocation, aligning with the approach used in
tipc_aead_init() and adhering to best practices for handling confidential
information.

[ Upstream commit f29ccaa07cf3d35990f4d25028cc55470d29372b ]

syzbot reported a refcount warning [1] caused by calling get_net() on
a network namespace that is being destroyed (refcount=0). This happens
when a TIPC discovery timer fires during network namespace cleanup.

The recently added get_net() call in commit e279024617134 ("net/tipc:
fix slab-use-after-free Read in tipc_aead_encrypt_done") attempts to
hold a reference to the network namespace. However, if the namespace
is already being destroyed, its refcount might be zero, leading to the
use-after-free warning.

Replace get_net() with maybe_get_net(), which safely checks if the
refcount is non-zero before incrementing it. If the namespace is being
destroyed, return -ENODEV early, after releasing the bearer reference.

After freed the tipc_crypto tx by delete namespace, tipc_aead_encrypt_done
may still visit it in cryptd_queue_worker workqueue.

I reproduce this issue by:
  ip netns add ns1
  ip link add veth1 type veth peer name veth2
  ip link set veth1 netns ns1
  ip netns exec ns1 tipc bearer enable media eth dev veth1
  ip netns exec ns1 tipc node set key this_is_a_master_key master
  ip netns exec ns1 tipc bearer disable media eth dev veth1
  ip netns del ns1

The key of reproduction is that, simd_aead_encrypt is interrupted, leading
to crypto_simd_usable() return false. Thus, the cryptd_queue_worker is
triggered, and the tipc_crypto tx will be visited.

  tipc_disc_timeout
    tipc_bearer_xmit_skb
      tipc_crypto_xmit
        tipc_aead_encrypt
          crypto_aead_encrypt
            // encrypt()
            simd_aead_encrypt
              // crypto_simd_usable() is false
              child = &amp;ctx-&gt;cryptd_tfm-&gt;base;

  simd_aead_encrypt
    crypto_aead_encrypt
      // encrypt()
      cryptd_aead_encrypt_enqueue
        cryptd_aead_enqueue
          cryptd_enqueue_request
            // trigger cryptd_queue_worker
            queue_work_on(smp_processor_id(), cryptd_wq, &amp;cpu_queue-&gt;work)

Fix this by holding net reference count before encrypt.

[ Upstream commit 5fe71fda89745fc3cd95f70d06e9162b595c3702 ]

On a 32bit system the "keylen + sizeof(struct tipc_aead_key)" math could
have an integer wrapping issue.  It doesn't matter because the "keylen"
is checked on the next line, but just to make life easier for static
analysis tools, let's re-order these conditions and avoid the integer
overflow.

[ Upstream commit 08e50cf071847323414df0835109b6f3560d44f5 ]

It seems that tipc_crypto_key_revoke() could be be invoked by
wokequeue tipc_crypto_work_rx() under process context and
timer/rx callback under softirq context, thus the lock acquisition
on &amp;tx-&gt;lock seems better use spin_lock_bh() to prevent possible
deadlock.

This flaw was found by an experimental static analysis tool I am
developing for irq-related deadlock.

As the call trace shows, the original skb was freed in tipc_msg_validate(),
and dereferencing the old skb cb would cause an use-after-free crash.
