This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled net/sched: cls_fw: No longer copy tcf_result on update to avoid use-after-free to the 5.15-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-sched-cls_fw-no-longer-copy-tcf_result-on-update.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.15 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 708fc9906a9f632ac4e049dc46d70892502cd3a6 Author: valis <sec@valis.email> Date: Sat Jul 29 08:32:01 2023 -0400 net/sched: cls_fw: No longer copy tcf_result on update to avoid use-after-free [ Upstream commit 76e42ae831991c828cffa8c37736ebfb831ad5ec ] When fw_change() is called on an existing filter, the whole tcf_result struct is always copied into the new instance of the filter. This causes a problem when updating a filter bound to a class, as tcf_unbind_filter() is always called on the old instance in the success path, decreasing filter_cnt of the still referenced class and allowing it to be deleted, leading to a use-after-free. Fix this by no longer copying the tcf_result struct from the old filter.
