bpf_update_srh_state() locates an SRH with ipv6_find_hdr() and caches skb->data + srhoff in the per-CPU SEG6 BPF state. This assumes that the returned offset is within the skb linear head. That assumption is wrong because ipv6_find_hdr() uses skb_header_pointer() and can locate an SRH in non-linear data. The direct srh->hdrlen read and the cached SRH pointer can therefore access memory outside the linear area. BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in bpf_update_srh_state+0x1bc/0x200 net/core/filter.c:7027 bpf_update_srh_state() bpf_lwt_seg6_action() input_action_end_bpf() seg6_local_input() ipv6_rthdr_rcv() Fix this by using seg6_get_srh(), which pulls and validates the complete SRH and reloads its pointer afterwards. Pulling can reallocate skb->head, so refresh the BPF data pointers inside bpf_update_srh_state() immediately after the call. For End.DT6, make the inner IPv6 base header linear before removing the outer headers. Pulling only the outer headers can leave the inner header in non-linear data, while ipv6_find_hdr() and the nexthop lookup access it directly. Clear the cached SRH pointer and refresh the BPF data pointers if the pull fails. End.B6 and End.B6.Encap can modify or reallocate the skb before a later nexthop lookup returns an error. Rebuild the SRH state regardless of the action result instead of assuming that an error leaves the skb unchanged. Fixes: 486cdf21583e ("bpf: add End.DT6 action to bpf_lwt_seg6_action helper") Reported-by: Xiang Mei Signed-off-by: Cen Zhang (Microsoft Security FORGE Labs) Assisted-by: Copilot:gpt-5.6-sol --- Please queue this fix for stable kernels. Testing: - Static checks only: checkpatch.pl, diff --check and patch replay. - No targeted selftest was added. BPF LWT test-run does not support non-linear skbs, and the existing SEG6 netns test does not create a split inner IPv6 header for End.DT6. net/core/filter.c | 30 ++++++++++++++++-------------- 1 file changed, 16 insertions(+), 14 deletions(-) diff --git a/net/core/filter.c b/net/core/filter.c index 61940e753552..1dd3a685d1b8 100644 --- a/net/core/filter.c +++ b/net/core/filter.c @@ -7018,15 +7018,16 @@ static void bpf_update_srh_state(struct sk_buff *skb) { struct seg6_bpf_srh_state *srh_state = this_cpu_ptr(&seg6_bpf_srh_states); - int srhoff = 0; + struct ipv6_sr_hdr *srh; - if (ipv6_find_hdr(skb, &srhoff, IPPROTO_ROUTING, NULL, NULL) < 0) { - srh_state->srh = NULL; - } else { - srh_state->srh = (struct ipv6_sr_hdr *)(skb->data + srhoff); - srh_state->hdrlen = srh_state->srh->hdrlen << 3; - srh_state->valid = true; - } + srh = seg6_get_srh(skb, 0); + bpf_compute_data_pointers(skb); + srh_state->srh = srh; + if (!srh) + return; + + srh_state->hdrlen = srh->hdrlen << 3; + srh_state->valid = true; } BPF_CALL_4(bpf_lwt_seg6_action, struct sk_buff *, skb, @@ -7059,15 +7060,18 @@ BPF_CALL_4(bpf_lwt_seg6_action, struct sk_buff *, skb, if (ipv6_find_hdr(skb, &hdroff, IPPROTO_IPV6, NULL, NULL) < 0) return -EBADMSG; - if (!pskb_pull(skb, hdroff)) + if (!pskb_may_pull(skb, hdroff + sizeof(struct ipv6hdr))) { + srh_state->srh = NULL; + bpf_compute_data_pointers(skb); return -EBADMSG; + } + __skb_pull(skb, hdroff); skb_postpull_rcsum(skb, skb_network_header(skb), hdroff); skb_reset_network_header(skb); skb_reset_transport_header(skb); skb->encapsulation = 0; - bpf_compute_data_pointers(skb); bpf_update_srh_state(skb); return seg6_lookup_nexthop(skb, NULL, *(int *)param); case SEG6_LOCAL_ACTION_END_B6: @@ -7075,8 +7079,7 @@ BPF_CALL_4(bpf_lwt_seg6_action, struct sk_buff *, skb, return -EBADMSG; err = bpf_push_seg6_encap(skb, BPF_LWT_ENCAP_SEG6_INLINE, param, param_len); - if (!err) - bpf_update_srh_state(skb); + bpf_update_srh_state(skb); return err; case SEG6_LOCAL_ACTION_END_B6_ENCAP: @@ -7084,8 +7087,7 @@ BPF_CALL_4(bpf_lwt_seg6_action, struct sk_buff *, skb, return -EBADMSG; err = bpf_push_seg6_encap(skb, BPF_LWT_ENCAP_SEG6, param, param_len); - if (!err) - bpf_update_srh_state(skb); + bpf_update_srh_state(skb); return err; default: base-commit: 28d75dd3eb60812b3a87cbdf0d52c42f51b28a78 -- 2.55.0
