This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled netlink, mmap: transform mmap skb into full skb on taps to the linux-3.13.y-queue branch of the 3.13.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/linux.git/log/?h=linux-3.13.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.13.11-ckt29. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.13.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ------ From 8bdaf157f3ed8dac64f291c7514d1c914a256db0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2015 20:05:46 +0200 Subject: netlink, mmap: transform mmap skb into full skb on taps [ Upstream commit 1853c949646005b5959c483becde86608f548f24 ] Ken-ichirou reported that running netlink in mmap mode for receive in combination with nlmon will throw a NULL pointer dereference in __kfree_skb() on nlmon_xmit(), in my case I can also trigger an "unable to handle kernel paging request". The problem is the skb_clone() in __netlink_deliver_tap_skb() for skbs that are mmaped. I.e. the cloned skb doesn't have a destructor, whereas the mmap netlink skb has it pointed to netlink_skb_destructor(), set in the handler netlink_ring_setup_skb(). There, skb->head is being set to NULL, so that in such cases, __kfree_skb() doesn't perform a skb_release_data() via skb_release_all(), where skb->head is possibly being freed through kfree(head) into slab allocator, although netlink mmap skb->head points to the mmap buffer. Similarly, the same has to be done also for large netlink skbs where the data area is vmalloced. Therefore, as discussed, make a copy for these rather rare cases for now. This fixes the issue on my and Ken-ichirou's test-cases.
