On the UDP receive path skb-&gt;dev is repurposed as dev_scratch (the
truesize/state cache set by udp_set_dev_scratch()), through the
union { struct net_device *dev; unsigned long dev_scratch; } in sk_buff.

When a UDP socket is in a sockmap, sk_data_ready is
sk_psock_verdict_data_ready(), which calls udp_read_skb() -&gt; recv_actor()
(sk_psock_verdict_recv) to run the attached SK_SKB verdict program in softirq.
If that program calls a socket-lookup helper (bpf_sk_lookup_tcp/udp,
bpf_skc_lookup_tcp), bpf_skc_lookup() does:

	if (skb-&gt;dev)
		caller_net = dev_net(skb-&gt;dev);

skb-&gt;dev still holds the dev_scratch value (a non-NULL integer), so dev_net()
dereferences it as a struct net_device * and the kernel takes a general
protection fault on a non-canonical address in softirq:

  Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0x1010000800004a0

<title>sctp: purge outqueue on stale COOKIE-ECHO handling</title>

<id>e374b22e9b07b72a25909621464ff74096151bfb</id>
<content type='text'>
sctp_stream_update() is only invoked when the association is moved into
COOKIE_WAIT during association setup/reconfiguration. In this path, the
outbound stream scheduler state (stream-&gt;out_curr) is expected to be
clean, since no user data should have been transmitted yet unless the
state machine has already partially progressed.

However, a corner case exists in sctp_sf_do_5_2_6_stale(): when a
Stale Cookie ERROR is received, the association is rolled back from
COOKIE_ECHOED to COOKIE_WAIT. In this scenario, user data may already
have been queued and even bundled with the COOKIE-ECHO chunk.

During the rollback, sctp_stream_update() frees the old stream table
and installs a new one, but it does not invalidate stream-&gt;out_curr.
As a result, out_curr may still point to a freed sctp_stream_out
entry from the previous stream state.

Later, SCTP scheduler dequeue paths (FCFS, RR, PRIO, etc.) rely on
stream-&gt;out_curr-&gt;ext, which can lead to use-after-free once the old
stream state has been released via sctp_stream_free().

This results in crashes such as (reported by Yuqi):

  BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in sctp_sched_fcfs_dequeue+0x13a/0x140

   sctp_rcv+0x138d/0x3c10

Fix this by fully purging the association outqueue when handling the
Stale Cookie case. This ensures all pending transmit and retransmit
state is dropped, and any scheduler cached pointers are invalidated,
making it safe to rebuild stream state during COOKIE_WAIT restart.

Updating only stream-&gt;out_curr would be insufficient, since queued
and retransmittable data would still reference the old stream state and
trigger later use-after-free in dequeue paths.

<title>net/802/mrp: fix vector attribute parsing in mrp_pdu_parse_vecattr</title>

<content type='text'>
In mrp_pdu_parse_vecattr(), vector attribute events are encoded three
per byte and valen tracks the number of events left to process.

The parser decrements valen after processing the first and second events
from each event byte, but not after processing the third one. When valen
is exactly a multiple of three, the loop continues after the last valid
event and consumes the next byte as a new event byte, applying a
spurious event to the MRP applicant state.

Additionally, when valen is zero the parser unconditionally consumes
attrlen bytes as FirstValue and advances the offset, even though per
IEEE 802.1ak a VectorAttribute with only a LeaveAllEvent has valen of
zero and no FirstValue or Vector fields. This corrupts the offset for
subsequent PDU parsing.

Also, when valen exceeds three the loop crosses byte boundaries but
the attribute value is not incremented between the last event of one
byte and the first event of the next. This causes the first event of
the next byte to use the same attribute value as the third event
rather than the next consecutive value.

Decrement valen after processing the third event, skip FirstValue
consumption when valen is zero, and increment the attribute value at
the end of each loop iteration.

<id>3a5f3f7aff18bcc36a57839cf50cf0cc8de707f3</id>
<content type='text'>
The aoe driver (or similar) generates a non-IPv6 packet
(e.g., ETH_P_AOE) and queues it for transmission via dev_queue_xmit()
on a 6LoWPAN interface (configured by the user or test case).

Since the packet is not IPv6, the 6LoWPAN header_ops-&gt;create function
(lowpan_header_create or header_create) returns early without initializing
the lowpan_addr_info structure in the skb headroom.

In the transmit function (lowpan_xmit), the driver calls lowpan_header
(or setup_header) which unconditionally copies and uses the lowpan_addr_info
from the headroom, which contains uninitialized data.

Fix this by dropping non IPv6 packets.

A similar fix is needed in net/bluetooth/6lowpan.c bt_xmit().

<title>ipv6: mcast: Fix use-after-free when processing MLD queries</title>

<id>791c91dc7a9dfb2457d5e29b8216a6484b9c4b40</id>
<content type='text'>
When processing an MLD query, a pointer to the multicast group address
is retrieved when initially parsing the packet. This pointer is later
dereferenced without being reloaded despite the fact that the skb header
might have been reallocated following the pskb_may_pull() calls, leading
to a use-after-free [1].

Fix by copying the multicast group address when the packet is initially
parsed.

When processing an MLD query, a pointer to the multicast group address
is retrieved when initially parsing the packet. This pointer is later
dereferenced without being reloaded despite the fact that the skb header
might have been reallocated following the pskb_may_pull() calls, leading
to a use-after-free [1].

Fix by copying the multicast group address when the packet is initially
parsed.

<title>sctp: validate cached peer INIT chunk length in COOKIE_ECHO processing</title>

<content type='text'>
When a listening SCTP server processes a COOKIE_ECHO chunk, the cached
peer INIT chunk embedded after the cookie is parsed and its parameters
are later walked by sctp_process_init() using sctp_walk_params().

However, the chunk header length of this cached INIT chunk was not
validated against the remaining buffer in the COOKIE_ECHO payload. If
the length field is inflated, the parameter walk can run beyond the
actual received data, leading to out-of-bounds reads and potential
memory corruption during later parameter handling (e.g. STATE_COOKIE
processing and kmemdup() copies).

Add a bounds check in sctp_unpack_cookie() to ensure the cached INIT
chunk length does not exceed the available data in the COOKIE_ECHO
buffer before it is used.

<title>net/sched: fix pedit partial COW leading to page cache corruption</title>

tcf_pedit_act() computes the COW range for skb_ensure_writable()
once before the key loop using tcfp_off_max_hint, but the hint does
not account for the runtime header offset added by typed keys. This
can leave part of the write region un-COW'd.

Fix by moving skb_ensure_writable() inside the per-key loop where
the actual write offset is known, and add overflow checking on the
offset arithmetic. For negative offsets (e.g. Ethernet header edits
at ingress), use skb_cow() to COW the headroom instead. Guard
offset_valid() against INT_MIN, where negation is undefined.

<title>vsock/vmci: fix sk_ack_backlog leak on failed handshake</title>

<id>c05fa14db43ebef3bd862ca9d073981c0358b3f0</id>
<content type='text'>
When vmci_transport_recv_connecting_server() returns an error,
vmci_transport_recv_listen() calls vsock_remove_pending() but never
calls sk_acceptq_removed(). This leaves sk_ack_backlog incremented
permanently.

Repeated handshake failures (malformed packets, queue pair alloc
failure, event subscribe failure) cause sk_ack_backlog to climb
toward sk_max_ack_backlog. Once it reaches the limit the listener
permanently refuses all new connections with -ECONNREFUSED, a
silent denial of service requiring a process restart to recover.

The two existing sk_acceptq_removed() calls in af_vsock.c do not
cover this path: line 764 checks vsock_is_pending() which returns
false after vsock_remove_pending(), and line 1889 is only reached
on successful accept().

Fix by balancing sk_acceptq_added() with sk_acceptq_removed() on
the error path.
