[PATCH 5.15 080/215] netlink: hold nlk->cb_mutex longer in __netlink_dump_start()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



5.15-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit b5590270068c4324dac4a2b5a4a156e02e21339f ]

__netlink_dump_start() releases nlk->cb_mutex right before
calling netlink_dump() which grabs it again.

This seems dangerous, even if KASAN did not bother yet.

Add a @lock_taken parameter to netlink_dump() to let it
grab the mutex if called from netlink_recvmsg() only.
