3.13.11-ckt24 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Alexander Sverdlin <alexander.sverdlin@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 29c4afc4e98f4dc0ea9df22c631841f9c220b944 ] There is NULL pointer dereference possible during statistics update if the route used for OOTB responce is removed at unfortunate time. If the route exists when we receive OOTB packet and we finally jump into sctp_packet_transmit() to send ABORT, but in the meantime route is removed under our feet, we take "no_route" path and try to update stats with IP_INC_STATS(sock_net(asoc->base.sk), ...). But sctp_ootb_pkt_new() used to prepare responce packet doesn't call sctp_transport_set_owner() and therefore there is no asoc associated with this packet. Probably temporary asoc just for OOTB responces is overkill, so just introduce a check like in all other places in sctp_packet_transmit(), where "asoc" is dereferenced. To reproduce this, one needs to 0. ensure that sctp module is loaded (otherwise ABORT is not generated) 1. remove default route on the machine 2. while true; do ip route del [interface-specific route] ip route add [interface-specific route] done 3. send enough OOTB packets (i.e. HB REQs) from another host to trigger ABORT responce On x86_64 the crash looks like this: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000020 IP: [<ffffffffa05ec9ac>] sctp_packet_transmit+0x63c/0x730 [sctp] PGD 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP Modules linked in: ...
