This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled net: expand textsearch ts_state to fit skb_seq_state to the 5.11-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: net-expand-textsearch-ts_state-to-fit-skb_seq_state.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.11 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 572af19ff7c330008879f843271e48cebcc88e43 Author: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Mar 1 15:09:44 2021 +0000 net: expand textsearch ts_state to fit skb_seq_state [ Upstream commit b228c9b058760500fda5edb3134527f629fc2dc3 ] The referenced commit expands the skb_seq_state used by skb_find_text with a 4B frag_off field, growing it to 48B. This exceeds container ts_state->cb, causing a stack corruption: [ 73.238353] Kernel panic - not syncing: stack-protector: Kernel stack is corrupted in: skb_find_text+0xc5/0xd0 [ 73.247384] CPU: 1 PID: 376 Comm: nping Not tainted 5.11.0+ #4 [ 73.252613] Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.14.0-2 04/01/2014 [ 73.260078] Call Trace: [ 73.264677] dump_stack+0x57/0x6a [ 73.267866] panic+0xf6/0x2b7 [ 73.270578] ? skb_find_text+0xc5/0xd0 [ 73.273964] __stack_chk_fail+0x10/0x10 [ 73.277491] skb_find_text+0xc5/0xd0 [ 73.280727] string_mt+0x1f/0x30 [ 73.283639] ipt_do_table+0x214/0x410 The struct is passed between skb_find_text and its callbacks skb_prepare_seq_read, skb_seq_read and skb_abort_seq read through the textsearch interface using TS_SKB_CB. I assumed that this mapped to skb->cb like other .._SKB_CB wrappers. skb->cb is 48B. But it maps to ts_state->cb, which is only 40B. skb->cb was increased from 40B to 48B after ts_state was introduced, in commit 3e3850e989c5 ("[NETFILTER]: Fix xfrm lookup in ip_route_me_harder/ip6_route_me_harder"). Increase ts_state.cb[] to 48 to fit the struct. Also add a BUILD_BUG_ON to avoid a repeat. The alternative is to directly add a dependency from textsearch onto linux/skbuff.h, but I think the intent is textsearch to have no such dependencies on its callers.
