If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 2286e083e407b0e178f167ab95278662bc761d78 Author: Hangyu Hua <hbh25y@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Jun 1 14:46:25 2022 +0800 xfrm: xfrm_policy: fix a possible double xfrm_pols_put() in xfrm_bundle_lookup() [ Upstream commit f85daf0e725358be78dfd208dea5fd665d8cb901 ] xfrm_policy_lookup() will call xfrm_pol_hold_rcu() to get a refcount of pols[0]. This refcount can be dropped in xfrm_expand_policies() when xfrm_expand_policies() return error. pols[0]'s refcount is balanced in here. But xfrm_bundle_lookup() will also call xfrm_pols_put() with num_pols == 1 to drop this refcount when xfrm_expand_policies() return error. This patch also fix an illegal address access. pols[0] will save a error point when xfrm_policy_lookup fails. This lead to xfrm_pols_put to resolve an illegal address in xfrm_bundle_lookup's error path. Fix these by setting num_pols = 0 in xfrm_expand_policies()'s error path.
