From: Kuniyuki Iwashima <kuniyu@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 3c52c6bb831f6335c176a0fc7214e26f43adbd11 upstream. syzbot reported a memory leak [0] related to IPV6_ADDRFORM. The scenario is that while one thread is converting an IPv6 socket into IPv4 with IPV6_ADDRFORM, another thread calls do_ipv6_setsockopt() and allocates memory to inet6_sk(sk)->XXX after conversion. Then, the converted sk with (tcp|udp)_prot never frees the IPv6 resources, which inet6_destroy_sock() should have cleaned up. setsockopt(IPV6_ADDRFORM) setsockopt(IPV6_DSTOPTS) +-----------------------+ +----------------------+ - do_ipv6_setsockopt(sk, ...) - sockopt_lock_sock(sk) - do_ipv6_setsockopt(sk, ...) - lock_sock(sk) ^._ called via tcpv6_prot - WRITE_ONCE(sk->sk_prot, &tcp_prot) before WRITE_ONCE() - xchg(&np->opt, NULL) - txopt_put(opt) - sockopt_release_sock(sk) - release_sock(sk) - sockopt_lock_sock(sk) - lock_sock(sk) - ipv6_set_opt_hdr(sk, ...) - ipv6_update_options(sk, opt) - xchg(&inet6_sk(sk)->opt, opt) ^._ opt is never freed. - sockopt_release_sock(sk) - release_sock(sk) Since IPV6_DSTOPTS allocates options under lock_sock(), we can avoid this memory leak by testing whether sk_family is changed by IPV6_ADDRFORM after acquiring the lock. This issue exists from the initial commit between IPV6_ADDRFORM and IPV6_PKTOPTIONS.
