tipc: skb_linearize the head skb when reassembling msgs

2021-06-03T06:38:08+00:00

commit b7df21cf1b79ab7026f545e7bf837bd5750ac026 upstream.

It's not a good idea to append the frag skb to a skb's frag_list if
the frag_list already has skbs from elsewhere, such as this skb was
created by pskb_copy() where the frag_list was cloned (all the skbs
in it were skb_get'ed) and shared by multiple skbs.

However, the new appended frag skb should have been only seen by the
current skb. Otherwise, it will cause use after free crashes as this
appended frag skb are seen by multiple skbs but it only got skb_get
called once.

The same thing happens with a skb updated by pskb_may_pull() with a
skb_cloned skb. Li Shuang has reported quite a few crashes caused
by this when doing testing over macvlan devices:

This patch is to fix it by linearizing the head skb if it has frag_list
set in tipc_buf_append(). Note that we choose to do this before calling
skb_unshare(), as __skb_linearize() will avoid skb_copy(). Also, we can
not just drop the frag_list either as the early time.

tipc: fix memory leak caused by tipc_buf_append()

2020-11-05T10:08:33+00:00

[ Upstream commit ceb1eb2fb609c88363e06618b8d4bbf7815a4e03 ]

Commit ed42989eab57 ("tipc: fix the skb_unshare() in tipc_buf_append()")
replaced skb_unshare() with skb_copy() to not reduce the data reference
counter of the original skb intentionally. This is not the correct
way to handle the cloned skb because it causes memory leak in 2
following cases:
 1/ Sending multicast messages via broadcast link
  The original skb list is cloned to the local skb list for local
  destination. After that, the data reference counter of each skb
  in the original list has the value of 2. This causes each skb not
  to be freed after receiving ACK:
  tipc_link_advance_transmq()
  {
   ...
   /* release skb */
   __skb_unlink(skb, &l->transmq);
   kfree_skb(skb); <-- memory exists after being freed
  }

 2/ Sending multicast messages via replicast link
  Similar to the above case, each skb cannot be freed after purging
  the skb list:
  tipc_mcast_xmit()
  {
   ...
   __skb_queue_purge(pkts); <-- memory exists after being freed
  }

This commit fixes this issue by using skb_unshare() instead. Besides,
to avoid use-after-free error reported by KASAN, the pointer to the
fragment is set to NULL before calling skb_unshare() to make sure that
the original skb is not freed after freeing the fragment 2 times in
case skb_unshare() returns NULL.

tipc: fix the skb_unshare() in tipc_buf_append()

2020-10-29T08:54:56+00:00

[ Upstream commit ed42989eab57d619667d7e87dfbd8fe207db54fe ]

skb_unshare() drops a reference count on the old skb unconditionally,
so in the failure case, we end up freeing the skb twice here.
And because the skb is allocated in fclone and cloned by caller
tipc_msg_reassemble(), the consequence is actually freeing the
original skb too, thus triggered the UAF by syzbot.

Fix this by replacing this skb_unshare() with skb_cloned()+skb_copy().

tipc: use skb_unshare() instead in tipc_buf_append()

2020-09-26T16:01:30+00:00

[ Upstream commit ff48b6222e65ebdba5a403ef1deba6214e749193 ]

In tipc_buf_append() it may change skb's frag_list, and it causes
problems when this skb is cloned. skb_unclone() doesn't really
make this skb's flag_list available to change.

Shuang Li has reported an use-after-free issue because of this
when creating quite a few macvlan dev over the same dev, where
the broadcast packets will be cloned and go up to the stack:

So fix it by using skb_unshare() instead, which would create a new
skb for the cloned frag and it'll be safe to change its frag_list.
The similar things were also done in sctp_make_reassembled_event(),
which is using skb_copy().

tipc: fix unlimited bundling of small messages

2019-10-07T16:57:25+00:00

[ Upstream commit e95584a889e1902fdf1ded9712e2c3c3083baf96 ]

We have identified a problem with the "oversubscription" policy in the
link transmission code.

When small messages are transmitted, and the sending link has reached
the transmit window limit, those messages will be bundled and put into
the link backlog queue. However, bundles of data messages are counted
at the 'CRITICAL' level, so that the counter for that level, instead of
the counter for the real, bundled message's level is the one being
increased.
Subsequent, to-be-bundled data messages at non-CRITICAL levels continue
to be tested against the unchanged counter for their own level, while
contributing to an unrestrained increase at the CRITICAL backlog level.

This leaves a gap in congestion control algorithm for small messages
that can result in starvation for other users or a "real" CRITICAL
user. Even that eventually can lead to buffer exhaustion & link reset.

We fix this by keeping a 'target_bskb' buffer pointer at each levels,
then when bundling, we only bundle messages at the same importance
level only. This way, we know exactly how many slots a certain level
have occupied in the queue, so can manage level congestion accurately.

By bundling messages at the same level, we even have more benefits. Let
consider this:
- One socket sends 64-byte messages at the 'CRITICAL' level;
- Another sends 4096-byte messages at the 'LOW' level;

When a 64-byte message comes and is bundled the first time, we put the
overhead of message bundle to it (+ 40-byte header, data copy, etc.)
for later use, but the next message can be a 4096-byte one that cannot
be bundled to the previous one. This means the last bundle carries only
one payload message which is totally inefficient, as for the receiver
also! Later on, another 64-byte message comes, now we make a new bundle
and the same story repeats...

With the new bundling algorithm, this will not happen, the 64-byte
messages will be bundled together even when the 4096-byte message(s)
comes in between. However, if the 4096-byte messages are sent at the
same level i.e. 'CRITICAL', the bundling algorithm will again cause the
same overhead.

Also, the same will happen even with only one socket sending small
messages at a rate close to the link transmit's one, so that, when one
message is bundled, it's transmitted shortly. Then, another message
comes, a new bundle is created and so on...

We will solve this issue radically by another patch.

tipc: eliminate buffer cloning in function tipc_msg_extract()

2018-06-30T11:48:16+00:00

The function tipc_msg_extract() is using skb_clone() to clone inner
messages from a message bundle buffer. Although this method is safe,
it has an undesired effect that each buffer clone inherits the
true-size of the bundling buffer. As a result, the buffer clone
almost always ends up with being copied anyway by the message
validation function. This makes the cloning into a sub-optimization.

In this commit we take the consequence of this realization, and copy
each inner message to a separately allocated buffer up front in the
extraction function.

As a bonus we can now eliminate the two cases where we had to copy
re-routed packets that may potentially go out on the wire again.

tipc: obsolete TIPC_ZONE_SCOPE

2018-03-17T21:11:46+00:00

Publications for TIPC_CLUSTER_SCOPE and TIPC_ZONE_SCOPE are in all
aspects handled the same way, both on the publishing node and on the
receiving nodes.

Despite previous ambitions to the contrary, this is never going to change,
so we take the conseqeunce of this and obsolete TIPC_ZONE_SCOPE and related
macros/functions. Whenever a user is doing a bind() or a sendmsg() attempt
using ZONE_SCOPE we translate this internally to CLUSTER_SCOPE, while we
remain compatible with users and remote nodes still using ZONE_SCOPE.

Furthermore, the non-formalized scope value 0 has always been permitted
for use during lookup, with the same meaning as ZONE_SCOPE/CLUSTER_SCOPE.
We now permit it even as binding scope, but for compatibility reasons we
choose to not change the value of TIPC_CLUSTER_SCOPE.

tipc: fix skb truesize/datasize ratio control

2018-02-08T20:30:40+00:00

In commit d618d09a68e4 ("tipc: enforce valid ratio between skb truesize
and contents") we introduced a test for ensuring that the condition
truesize/datasize <= 4 is true for a received buffer. Unfortunately this
test has two problems.

- Because of the integer arithmetics the test
  if (skb->truesize / buf_roundup_len(skb) > 4) will miss all
  ratios [4 < ratio < 5], which was not the intention.
- The buffer returned by skb_copy() inherits skb->truesize of the
  original buffer, which doesn't help the situation at all.

In this commit, we change the ratio condition and replace skb_copy()
with a call to skb_copy_expand() to finally get this right.

tipc: fall back to smaller MTU if allocation of local send skb fails

2017-12-01T20:21:25+00:00

When sending node local messages the code is using an 'mtu' of 66060
bytes to avoid unnecessary fragmentation. During situations of low
memory tipc_msg_build() may sometimes fail to allocate such large
buffers, resulting in unnecessary send failures. This can easily be
remedied by falling back to a smaller MTU, and then reassemble the
buffer chain as if the message were arriving from a remote node.

At the same time, we change the initial MTU setting of the broadcast
link to a lower value, so that large messages always are fragmented
into smaller buffers even when we run in single node mode. Apart from
obtaining the same advantage as for the 'fallback' solution above, this
turns out to give a significant performance improvement. This can
probably be explained with the __pskb_copy() operation performed on the
buffer for each recipient during reception. We found the optimal value
for this, considering the most relevant skb pool, to be 3744 bytes.

tipc: enforce valid ratio between skb truesize and contents

2017-11-16T01:49:00+00:00

The socket level flow control is based on the assumption that incoming
buffers meet the condition (skb->truesize / roundup(skb->len) <= 4),
where the latter value is rounded off upwards to the nearest 1k number.
This does empirically hold true for the device drivers we know, but we
cannot trust that it will always be so, e.g., in a system with jumbo
frames and very small packets.

We now introduce a check for this condition at packet arrival, and if
we find it to be false, we copy the packet to a new, smaller buffer,
where the condition will be true. We expect this to affect only a small
fraction of all incoming packets, if at all.
