7 daysnet/sched: fix pedit partial COW leading to page cache corruptionRajat Gupta
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.

10 daysnet/sched: act_api: use RCU with deferred freeing for action lifecycleJamal Hadi Salim
When NEWTFILTER and DELFILTER are run concurrently it is possible to create a race with an associated action. Let's illustrate with CPU0 running NEWTFILTER and CPU1 running DELFILTER: 0: mutex_lock() <-- holds the idr lock 0: rcu_read_lock() 0: p = idr_find(idr, index) <-- action p is valid (RCU protects IDR) 0: mutex_unlock() <-- releases the idr lock 1: refcount_dec_and_mutex_lock() <-- refcnt 1->0, mutex held 1: idr_remove(idr, index) <-- Action removed from IDR 1: mutex_unlock() <-- mutex released allowing us to delete the action 1: tcf_action_cleanup(p); kfree(p) <-- Kfrees p immediately, no deferral 0: refcount_inc_not_zero(&p->tcfa_refcnt) <-- ouch, UAF p points to freed memory This patch fixes the race condition between NEWTFILTER and DELFILTER by adding struct rcu_head to tc_action used in the deferral and introducing a call_rcu() in the delete path to defer the final kfree(). Note: this is a revert of commit d7fb60b9cafb ("net_sched: get rid of tcfa_rcu") but also modernization/simplification to directly use kfree_rcu(). Let's illustrate the new restored code path: 0: rcu_read_lock() 1: refcount_dec_and_mutex_lock() <-- refcnt 1->0, mutex held 1: idr_remove(idr, index) 1: mutex_unlock() 1: call_rcu(&p->tcfa_rcu, tcf_action_rcu_free) <-- defer kfree after grace period 0: p = idr_find(idr, index) 0: refcount_inc_not_zero(&p->tcfa_refcnt) <-- fails, refcnt already 0 1: rcu_read_unlock() <-- release so freeing can run after grace period After CPU1 calls idr_remove(), the object is no longer reachable through the IDR. CPU0's subsequent idr_find() will return NULL, and even if it still held a stale pointer, the immediate kfree() is now deferred until after the RCU grace period, so no UAF can occur.

2026-05-28net/sched: act_mirred: Fix return code in early mirred redirect error pathsVictor Nogueira
Since retval is set as TC_ACT_STOLEN in the mirred redirect case, returning retval in cases where redirect failed will make the callers not register the skb as being dropped.

2026-05-28net/sched: act_mirred: Fix blockcast recursion bypass leading to stack overflowKito Xu (veritas501)
tcf_mirred_act() checks sched_mirred_nest against MIRRED_NEST_LIMIT (4) to prevent deep recursion. However, when the action uses blockcast (tcfm_blockid != 0), the function returns at the tcf_blockcast() call BEFORE reaching the counter increment. As a result, the recursion counter never advances and the limit check is entirely bypassed. When two devices share a TC egress block with a mirred blockcast rule, a packet egressing on device A is mirrored to device B via blockcast; device B's egress TC re-enters tcf_mirred_act() via blockcast and mirrors back to A, creating an unbounded recursion loop: tcf_mirred_act -> tcf_blockcast -> tcf_mirred_to_dev -> dev_queue_xmit -> sch_handle_egress -> tcf_classify -> tcf_mirred_act -> (repeat) This recursion continues until the kernel stack overflows. The bug is reachable from an unprivileged user via unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER | CLONE_NEWNET): user namespaces grant CAP_NET_ADMIN in the new network namespace, which is sufficient to create dummy devices, attach clsact qdiscs with shared blocks, and install mirred blockcast filters.

2026-05-28net/sched: Fix ethx:ingress -> ethy:egress -> ethx:ingress mirred loopJamal Hadi Salim
When mirred redirects to ingress (from either ingress or egress) the loop state from sched_mirred_dev array dev is lost because of 1) the packet deferral into the backlog and 2) the fact the sched_mirred_dev array is cleared. In such cases, if there was a loop we won't discover it.

2026-05-28net/sched: fix packet loop on netem when duplicate is onJamal Hadi Salim
When netem duplicates a packet it re-enqueues the copy at the root qdisc. If another netem sits in the tree the copy can be duplicated again, recursing until the stack or memory is exhausted. The original duplication guard temporarily zeroed q->duplicate around the re-enqueue, but that does not cover all cases because it is per-qdisc state shared across all concurrent enqueue paths and is not safe without additional locking. Use the skb tc_depth field introduced in an earlier patch: - increment it on the duplicate before re-enqueue - skip duplication for any skb whose tc_depth is already non-zero. This marks the packet itself rather than mutating qdisc state, therefore it is safe regardless of tree topology or concurrency.

netems to qdisc tree" This reverts commit ec8e0e3d7adef940cdf9475e2352c0680189d14e. The original patch rejects any tree containing two netems when either has duplication set, even when they sit on unrelated classes of the same classful parent. That broke configurations that have worked since netem was introduced. The re-entrancy problem the original commit was trying to solve is handled by later patch using tc_depth flag. Doing this revert will (re)expose the original bug with multiple netem duplication. When this patch is backported make sure and get the full series.

2026-05-13net/sched: sch_cbs: Call qdisc_reset for child qdiscJamal Hadi Salim
During a reset, CBS is not calling reset on its child qdisc, which might cause qlen/backlog accounting issues. For example, if we have CBS with a QFQ parent and a netem child with delay, we can create a scenario where the parent's qlen underflows. QFQ, specifically, uses qlen to check whether it should deference a pointer, so this scenario may cause a null-ptr deref in QFQ: [ 43.875639][ T319] Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000009: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN NOPTI [ 43.876124][ T319] KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000048-0x000000000000004f] [ 43.876417][ T319] CPU: 10 UID: 0 PID: 319 Comm: ping Not tainted 7.0.0-13039-ge728258debd5 #773 PREEMPT(full) [ 43.876751][ T319] Hardware name: Bochs Bochs, BIOS Bochs 01/01/2011 [ 43.876949][ T319] RIP: 0010:qfq_dequeue+0x35c/0x1650 [ 43.877123][ T319] Code: 00 fc ff df 80 3c 02 00 0f 85 17 0e 00 00 4c 8d 73 48 48 89 9d b8 02 00 00 48 b8 00 00 00 00 00 fc ff df 4c 89 f2 48 c1 ea 03 <80> 3c 02 00 0f 85 76 0c 00 00 48 b8 00 00 00 00 00 fc ff df 4c 8b [ 43.877648][ T319] RSP: 0018:ffff8881017ef4f0 EFLAGS: 00010216 [ 43.877845][ T319] RAX: dffffc0000000000 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: dffffc0000000000 [ 43.878073][ T319] RDX: 0000000000000009 RSI: 0000000c40000000 RDI: ffff88810eef02b0 [ 43.878306][ T319] RBP: ffff88810eef0000 R08: ffff88810eef0280 R09: 1ffff1102120fd63 [ 43.878523][ T319] R10: 1ffff1102120fd66 R11: 1ffff1102120fd67 R12: 0000000c40000000 [ 43.878742][ T319] R13: ffff88810eef02b8 R14: 0000000000000048 R15: 0000000020000000 [ 43.878959][ T319] FS: 00007f9c51c47c40(0000) GS:ffff88817a0be000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 [ 43.879214][ T319] CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 [ 43.879403][ T319] CR2: 000055e69a2230a8 CR3: 000000010c07a000 CR4: 0000000000750ef0 [ 43.879621][ T319] PKRU: 55555554 [ 43.879735][ T319] Call Trace: [ 43.879844][ T319] <TASK> [ 43.879924][ T319] __qdisc_run+0x169/0x1900 [ 43.880075][ T319] ? dev_qdisc_enqueue+0x8b/0x210 [ 43.880222][ T319] __dev_queue_xmit+0x2346/0x37a0 [ 43.880376][ T319] ? register_lock_class+0x3f/0x800 [ 43.880531][ T319] ? srso_alias_return_thunk+0x5/0xfbef5 [ 43.880684][ T319] ? __pfx___dev_queue_xmit+0x10/0x10 [ 43.880834][ T319] ? srso_alias_return_thunk+0x5/0xfbef5 [ 43.880977][ T319] ? __lock_acquire+0x819/0x1df0 [ 43.881124][ T319] ? srso_alias_return_thunk+0x5/0xfbef5 [ 43.881275][ T319] ? srso_alias_return_thunk+0x5/0xfbef5 [ 43.881418][ T319] ? __asan_memcpy+0x3c/0x60 [ 43.881563][ T319] ? srso_alias_return_thunk+0x5/0xfbef5 [ 43.881708][ T319] ? eth_header+0x165/0x1a0 [ 43.881853][ T319] ? lockdep_hardirqs_on_prepare+0xdb/0x1a0 [ 43.882031][ T319] ? srso_alias_return_thunk+0x5/0xfbef5 [ 43.882174][ T319] ? neigh_resolve_output+0x3cc/0x7e0 [ 43.882325][ T319] ? srso_alias_return_thunk+0x5/0xfbef5 [ 43.882471][ T319] ip_finish_output2+0x6b6/0x1e10 Fix this by calling qdisc_reset for CBS' child qdisc. Sashiko caught an issue which could result in a null ptr deref if qdisc_create_dflt() is invoked on an unitialised cbs qdisc which is exposed by this patch. We add an early return if the qdisc is null to address this. This is a similar approach used by two other fixes[1][2]. The proper fix for this specific issue elucidated by sashiko is to remove the call to qdisc_reset when qdisc_create_dflt fails. Since the dflt qdisc isn't attached anywhere yet at that point, calling the reset callback doesn't make much sense (and as stated has been a source of two other bugs). We plan on submitting this fix in a later patch.

qdisc_dequeue_peeked When sfb has children (eg qfq qdisc) whose peek() callback is qdisc_peek_dequeued(), we could get a kernel panic.

Note: if there wasnt a gso_skb entry then qfq will store it there. 1b. invoke a dequeue() on the child (sfb). And herein lies the problem. - sfb will call the child's dequeue() which will essentially just try to grab something of qfq's queue.

2026-04-28net: mctp i2c: check length before marking flow activeWilliam A. Kennington III
Currently, mctp_i2c_get_tx_flow_state() is called before the packet length sanity check. This function marks a new flow as active in the MCTP core. If the sanity check fails, mctp_i2c_xmit() returns early without calling mctp_i2c_lock_nest(). This results in a mismatched locking state: the flow is active, but the I2C bus lock was never acquired for it. When the flow is later released, mctp_i2c_release_flow() will see the active state and queue an unlock marker. The TX thread will then decrement midev->i2c_lock_count from 0, causing it to underflow to -1. This underflow permanently breaks the driver's locking logic, allowing future transmissions to occur without holding the I2C bus lock, leading to bus collisions and potential hardware hangs. Move the mctp_i2c_get_tx_flow_state() call to after the length sanity check to ensure we only transition the flow state if we are actually going to proceed with the transmission and locking.

2026-04-27net/sched: taprio: fix NULL pointer dereference in class dumpWeiming Shi
When a TAPRIO child qdisc is deleted via RTM_DELQDISC, taprio_graft() is called with new == NULL and stores NULL into q->qdiscs[cl - 1]. Subsequent RTM_GETTCLASS dump operations walk all classes via taprio_walk() and call taprio_dump_class(), which calls taprio_leaf() returning the NULL pointer, then dereferences it to read child->handle, causing a kernel NULL pointer dereference. The bug is reachable with namespace-scoped CAP_NET_ADMIN on any kernel with CONFIG_NET_SCH_TAPRIO enabled. On systems with unprivileged user namespaces enabled, an unprivileged local user can trigger a kernel panic by creating a taprio qdisc inside a new network namespace, grafting an explicit child qdisc, deleting it, and requesting a class dump. The RTM_GETTCLASS dump itself requires no capability. Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000007: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN NOPTI KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000038-0x000000000000003f] RIP: 0010:taprio_dump_class (net/sched/sch_taprio.c:2478) Call Trace: <TASK> tc_fill_tclass (net/sched/sch_api.c:1966) qdisc_class_dump (net/sched/sch_api.c:2326) taprio_walk (net/sched/sch_taprio.c:2514) tc_dump_tclass_qdisc (net/sched/sch_api.c:2352) tc_dump_tclass_root (net/sched/sch_api.c:2370) tc_dump_tclass (net/sched/sch_api.c:2431) rtnl_dumpit (net/core/rtnetlink.c:6864) netlink_dump (net/netlink/af_netlink.c:2325) rtnetlink_rcv_msg (net/core/rtnetlink.c:6959) netlink_rcv_skb (net/netlink/af_netlink.c:2550) </TASK> Fix this by substituting &noop_qdisc when new is NULL in taprio_graft(), a common pattern used by other qdiscs (e.g., multiq_graft()) to ensure the q->qdiscs[] slots are never NULL. This makes control-plane dump paths safe without requiring individual NULL checks. Since the data-plane paths (taprio_enqueue and taprio_dequeue_from_txq) previously had explicit NULL guards that would drop/skip the packet cleanly, update those checks to test for &noop_qdisc instead. Without this, packets would reach taprio_enqueue_one() which increments the root qdisc's qlen and backlog before calling the child's enqueue; noop_qdisc drops the packet but those counters are never rolled back, permanently inflating the root qdisc's statistics. After this change *old can be a valid qdisc, NULL, or &noop_qdisc. Only call qdisc_put(*old) in the first case to avoid decreasing noop_qdisc's refcount, which was never increased.

2026-04-27net/sched: netem: check for negative latency and jitterStephen Hemminger
Reject requests with negative latency or jitter. A negative value added to current timestamp (u64) wraps to an enormous time_to_send, disabling dequeue. The original UAPI used u32 for these values; the conversion to 64-bit time values via TCA_NETEM_LATENCY64 and TCA_NETEM_JITTER64 allowed signed values to reach the kernel without validation. Jitter is already silently clamped by an abs() in netem_change(); that abs() can be removed in a follow-up once this rejection is in place.

2026-04-27net/sched: netem: fix slot delay calculation overflowStephen Hemminger
get_slot_next() computes a random delay between min_delay and max_delay using: get_random_u32() * (max_delay - min_delay) >> 32 This overflows signed 64-bit arithmetic when the delay range exceeds approximately 2.1 seconds (2^31 nanoseconds), producing a negative result that effectively disables slot-based pacing. This is a realistic configuration for WAN emulation (e.g., slot 1s 5s). Use mul_u64_u32_shr() which handles the widening multiply without overflow.

Reject slot configurations that have no defensible meaning: - negative min_delay or max_delay - min_delay greater than max_delay - negative dist_delay or dist_jitter - negative max_packets or max_bytes Negative or out-of-order delays underflow in get_slot_next(), producing garbage intervals. Negative limits trip the per-slot accounting (packets_left/bytes_left <= 0) on the first packet of every slot, defeating the rate-limiting half of the slot feature. Note that dist_jitter has been silently coerced to its absolute value by get_slot() since the feature was introduced; rejecting negatives here converts that silent coercion into -EINVAL.

The comparisons use: if (rnd < a4) else if (a4 < rnd && rnd < a1 + a4) When rnd equals a boundary value exactly, neither branch matches and no state transition occurs. The redundant lower-bound check (a4 < rnd) is already implied by being in the else branch.

2026-04-21net/sched: sch_dualpi2: drain both C-queue and L-queue in dualpi2_change()Chia-Yu Chang
Fix dualpi2_change() to correctly enforce updated limit and memlimit values after a configuration change of the dualpi2 qdisc. Before this patch, dualpi2_change() always attempted to dequeue packets via the root qdisc (C-queue) when reducing backlog or memory usage, and unconditionally assumed that a valid skb will be returned. When traffic classification results in packets being queued in the L-queue while the C-queue is empty, this leads to a NULL skb dereference during limit or memlimit enforcement. This is fixed by first dequeuing from the C-queue path if it is non-empty. Once the C-queue is empty, packets are dequeued directly from the L-queue. Return values from qdisc_dequeue_internal() are checked for both queues. When dequeuing from the L-queue, the parent qdisc qlen and backlog counters are updated explicitly to keep overall qdisc statistics consistent.

2026-04-16net/sched: taprio: fix use-after-free in advance_sched() on schedule switchVinicius Costa Gomes
In advance_sched(), when should_change_schedules() returns true, switch_schedules() is called to promote the admin schedule to oper. switch_schedules() queues the old oper schedule for RCU freeing via call_rcu(), but 'next' still points into an entry of the old oper schedule. The subsequent 'next->end_time = end_time' and rcu_assign_pointer(q->current_entry, next) are use-after-free. Fix this by selecting 'next' from the new oper schedule immediately after switch_schedules(), and using its pre-calculated end_time. setup_first_end_time() sets the first entry's end_time to base_time + interval when the schedule is installed, so the value is already correct. The deleted 'end_time = sched_base_time(admin)' assignment was also harmful independently: it would overwrite the new first entry's pre-calculated end_time with just base_time.

2026-04-16net/sched: sch_cake: fix NAT destination port not being updated in ↵Dudu Lu
cake_update_flowkeys cake_update_flowkeys() is supposed to update the flow dissector keys with the NAT-translated addresses and ports from conntrack, so that CAKE's per-flow fairness correctly identifies post-NAT flows as belonging to the same connection. For the source port, this works correctly: keys->ports.src = port; But for the destination port, the assignment is reversed: port = keys->ports.dst; This means the NAT destination port is never updated in the flow keys. As a result, when multiple connections are NATed to the same destination, CAKE treats them as separate flows because the original (pre-NAT) destination ports differ. This breaks CAKE's NAT-aware flow isolation when using the "nat" mode. The bug was introduced in commit b0c19ed6088a ("sch_cake: Take advantage of skb->hash where appropriate") which refactored the original direct assignment into a compare-and-conditionally-update pattern, but wrote the destination port update backwards. Fix by reversing the assignment direction to match the source port pattern.

2026-04-16net/sched: act_mirred: fix wrong device for mac_header_xmit check in ↵Dudu Lu
tcf_blockcast_redir In tcf_blockcast_redir(), when iterating block ports to redirect packets to multiple devices, the mac_header_xmit flag is queried from the wrong device. The loop sends to dev_prev but queries dev_is_mac_header_xmit(dev) — which is the NEXT device in the iteration, not the one being sent to. This causes tcf_mirred_to_dev() to make incorrect decisions about whether to push or pull the MAC header. When the block contains mixed device types (e.g., an ethernet veth and a tunnel device), intermediate devices get the wrong mac_header_xmit flag, leading to skb header corruption. In the worst case, skb_push_rcsum with an incorrect mac_len can exhaust headroom and panic. The last device in the loop is handled correctly (line 365-366 uses dev_is_mac_header_xmit(dev_prev)), confirming this is a copy-paste oversight for the intermediate devices. Fix by using dev_prev instead of dev for the mac_header_xmit query, consistent with the device actually being sent to.

2026-04-12net/sched: act_ct: Only release RCU read lock after ct_ftJamal Hadi Salim
When looking up a flow table in act_ct in tcf_ct_flow_table_get(), rhashtable_lookup_fast() internally opens and closes an RCU read critical section before returning ct_ft. The tcf_ct_flow_table_cleanup_work() can complete before refcount_inc_not_zero() is invoked on the returned ct_ft resulting in a UAF on the already freed ct_ft object. This vulnerability can lead to privilege escalation. Analysis from zdi-disclosures@trendmicro.com: When initializing act_ct, tcf_ct_init() is called, which internally triggers tcf_ct_flow_table_get(). static int tcf_ct_flow_table_get(struct net *net, struct tcf_ct_params *params) { struct zones_ht_key key = { .net = net, .zone = params->zone }; struct tcf_ct_flow_table *ct_ft; int err = -ENOMEM; mutex_lock(&zones_mutex); ct_ft = rhashtable_lookup_fast(&zones_ht, &key, zones_params); // [1] if (ct_ft && refcount_inc_not_zero(&ct_ft->ref)) // [2] goto out_unlock; ... } static __always_inline void *rhashtable_lookup_fast( struct rhashtable *ht, const void *key, const struct rhashtable_params params) { void *obj; rcu_read_lock(); obj = rhashtable_lookup(ht, key, params); rcu_read_unlock(); return obj; } At [1], rhashtable_lookup_fast() looks up and returns the corresponding ct_ft from zones_ht . The lookup is performed within an RCU read critical section through rcu_read_lock() / rcu_read_unlock(), which prevents the object from being freed. However, at the point of function return, rcu_read_unlock() has already been called, and there is nothing preventing ct_ft from being freed before reaching refcount_inc_not_zero(&ct_ft->ref) at [2]. This interval becomes the race window, during which ct_ft can be freed. Free Process: tcf_ct_flow_table_put() is executed through the path tcf_ct_cleanup() call_rcu() tcf_ct_params_free_rcu() tcf_ct_params_free() tcf_ct_flow_table_put(). static void tcf_ct_flow_table_put(struct tcf_ct_flow_table *ct_ft) { if (refcount_dec_and_test(&ct_ft->ref)) { rhashtable_remove_fast(&zones_ht, &ct_ft->node, zones_params); INIT_RCU_WORK(&ct_ft->rwork, tcf_ct_flow_table_cleanup_work); // [3] queue_rcu_work(act_ct_wq, &ct_ft->rwork); } } At [3], tcf_ct_flow_table_cleanup_work() is scheduled as RCU work static void tcf_ct_flow_table_cleanup_work(struct work_struct *work) { struct tcf_ct_flow_table *ct_ft; struct flow_block *block; ct_ft = container_of(to_rcu_work(work), struct tcf_ct_flow_table, rwork); nf_flow_table_free(&ct_ft->nf_ft); block = &ct_ft->nf_ft.flow_block; down_write(&ct_ft->nf_ft.flow_block_lock); WARN_ON(!list_empty(&block->cb_list)); up_write(&ct_ft->nf_ft.flow_block_lock); kfree(ct_ft); // [4] module_put(THIS_MODULE); } tcf_ct_flow_table_cleanup_work() frees ct_ft at [4]. When this function executes between [1] and [2], UAF occurs. This race condition has a very short race window, making it generally difficult to trigger.

Therefore, insisting with repeated runs of the following script: # ip link add dev crash0 type dummy # ip link set dev crash0 up # mausezahn crash0 -c 100000 -P 10 \ > -A 4.3.2.1 -B 1.2.3.4 -t udp "dp=1234" -q & # sleep 1 # tc qdisc add dev crash0 egress_block 1 clsact # tc filter add block 1 protocol ip prio 1 matchall \ > action skbedit mark 65536 continue # tc filter add block 1 protocol ip prio 2 fw # ip link del dev crash0 can still make fw_classify() hit the WARN_ON() in [2]: WARNING: ./include/net/pkt_cls.h:88 at fw_classify+0x244/0x250 [cls_fw], CPU#18: mausezahn/1399 Modules linked in: cls_fw(E) act_skbedit(E) CPU: 18 UID: 0 PID: 1399 Comm: mausezahn Tainted: G E 7.0.0-rc6-virtme #17 PREEMPT(full) Tainted: [E]=UNSIGNED_MODULE Hardware name: Red Hat KVM, BIOS 1.16.3-2.el9 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:fw_classify+0x244/0x250 [cls_fw] Code: 5c 49 c7 45 00 00 00 00 00 41 5d 41 5e 41 5f 5d c3 cc cc cc cc 5b b8 ff ff ff ff 41 5c 41 5d 41 5e 41 5f 5d c3 cc cc cc cc 90 <0f> 0b 90 eb a0 0f 1f 80 00 00 00 00 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 RSP: 0018:ffffd1b7026bf8a8 EFLAGS: 00010202 RAX: ffff8c5ac9c60800 RBX: ffff8c5ac99322c0 RCX: 0000000000000004 RDX: 0000000000000001 RSI: ffff8c5b74d7a000 RDI: ffff8c5ac8284f40 RBP: ffffd1b7026bf8d0 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: ffffd1b7026bf9b0 R10: 00000000ffffffff R11: 0000000000000000 R12: 0000000000010000 R13: ffffd1b7026bf930 R14: ffff8c5ac8284f40 R15: 0000000000000000 FS: 00007fca40c37740(0000) GS:ffff8c5b74d7a000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 00007fca40e822a0 CR3: 0000000005ca0001 CR4: 0000000000172ef0 Call Trace: <TASK> tcf_classify+0x17d/0x5c0 tc_run+0x9d/0x150 __dev_queue_xmit+0x2ab/0x14d0 ip_finish_output2+0x340/0x8f0 ip_output+0xa4/0x250 raw_sendmsg+0x147d/0x14b0 __sys_sendto+0x1cc/0x1f0 __x64_sys_sendto+0x24/0x30 do_syscall_64+0x126/0xf80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f RIP: 0033:0x7fca40e822ba Code: d8 64 89 02 48 c7 c0 ff ff ff ff eb b8 0f 1f 00 f3 0f 1e fa 41 89 ca 64 8b 04 25 18 00 00 00 85 c0 75 15 b8 2c 00 00 00 0f 05 <48> 3d 00 f0 ff ff 77 7e c3 0f 1f 44 00 00 41 54 48 83 ec 30 44 89 RSP: 002b:00007ffc248a42c8 EFLAGS: 00000246 ORIG_RAX: 000000000000002c RAX: ffffffffffffffda RBX: 000055ef233289d0 RCX: 00007fca40e822ba RDX: 000000000000001e RSI: 000055ef23328c30 RDI: 0000000000000003 RBP: 000055ef233289d0 R08: 00007ffc248a42d0 R09: 0000000000000010 R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000246 R12: 000000000000001e R13: 00000000000186a0 R14: 0000000000000000 R15: 00007fca41043000 </TASK> irq event stamp: 1045778 hardirqs last enabled at (1045784): [<ffffffff864ec042>] __up_console_sem+0x52/0x60 hardirqs last disabled at (1045789): [<ffffffff864ec027>] __up_console_sem+0x37/0x60 softirqs last enabled at (1045426): [<ffffffff874d48c7>] __alloc_skb+0x207/0x260 softirqs last disabled at (1045434): [<ffffffff874fe8f8>] __dev_queue_xmit+0x78/0x14d0 Then, because of the value in the packet's mark, dereference on 'q->handle' with NULL 'q' occurs: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000038 [...] RIP: 0010:fw_classify+0x1fe/0x250 [cls_fw] [...] Skip "old-style" classification on shared blocks, so that the NULL dereference is fixed and WARN_ON() is not hit anymore in the short lifetime of invalid cls_fw "old-style" filters.

2026-04-08codel: annotate data-races in codel_dump_stats()Eric Dumazet
codel_dump_stats() only runs with RTNL held, reading fields that can be changed in qdisc fast path. Add READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() annotations. Alternative would be to acquire the qdisc spinlock, but our long-term goal is to make qdisc dump operations lockless as much as we can. tc_codel_xstats fields don't need to be latched atomically, otherwise this bug would have been caught earlier.

2026-04-03net: sched: act_csum: validate nested VLAN headersRuide Cao
tcf_csum_act() walks nested VLAN headers directly from skb->data when an skb still carries in-payload VLAN tags. The current code reads vlan->h_vlan_encapsulated_proto and then pulls VLAN_HLEN bytes without first ensuring that the full VLAN header is present in the linear area. If only part of an inner VLAN header is linearized, accessing h_vlan_encapsulated_proto reads past the linear area, and the following skb_pull(VLAN_HLEN) may violate skb invariants. Fix this by requiring pskb_may_pull(skb, VLAN_HLEN) before accessing and pulling each nested VLAN header. If the header still is not fully available, drop the packet through the existing error path.

2026-04-02net/sched: cls_flow: fix NULL pointer dereference on shared blocksXiang Mei
flow_change() calls tcf_block_q() and dereferences q->handle to derive a default baseclass. Shared blocks leave block->q NULL, causing a NULL deref when a flow filter without a fully qualified baseclass is created on a shared block. Check tcf_block_shared() before accessing block->q and return -EINVAL for shared blocks. This avoids the null-deref shown below: ======================================================================= KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000038-0x000000000000003f] RIP: 0010:flow_change (net/sched/cls_flow.c:508) Call Trace: tc_new_tfilter (net/sched/cls_api.c:2432) rtnetlink_rcv_msg (net/core/rtnetlink.c:6980) [...] ======================================================================= Fixes: 1abf272022cf ("net: sched: tcindex, fw, flow: use tcf_block_q helper to get struct Qdisc") Reported-by: Weiming Shi <bestswngs@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Xiang Mei <xmei5@asu.edu> Acked-by: Jamal Hadi Salim <jhs@mojatatu.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260331050217.504278-2-xmei5@asu.edu Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com>
2026-04-02net/sched: cls_fw: fix NULL pointer dereference on shared blocksXiang Mei
The old-method path in fw_classify() calls tcf_block_q() and dereferences q->handle. Shared blocks leave block->q NULL, causing a NULL deref when an empty cls_fw filter is attached to a shared block and a packet with a nonzero major skb mark is classified. Reject the configuration in fw_change() when the old method (no TCA_OPTIONS) is used on a shared block, since fw_classify()'s old-method path needs block->q which is NULL for shared blocks.
