Subject: xfrm: Copy policy family in clone_policy
From: Herbert Xu <herbert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 0e74aa1d79a5bbc663e03a2804399cae418a0321 ]
The syzbot found an ancient bug in the IPsec code. When we cloned
a socket policy (for example, for a child TCP socket derived from a
listening socket), we did not copy the family field. This results
in a live policy with a zero family field. This triggers a BUG_ON
check in the af_key code when the cloned policy is retrieved.
This patch fixes it by copying the family field over.
