Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: Fix load-tearing on sk->sk_stamp in sock_recv_cmsgs(). KCSAN found a data race in sock_recv_cmsgs() where the read access to sk->sk_stamp needs READ_ONCE(). BUG: KCSAN: data-race in packet_recvmsg / packet_recvmsg write (marked) to 0xffff88803c81f258 of 8 bytes by task 19171 on cpu 0: sock_write_timestamp include/net/sock.h:2670 [inline] sock_recv_cmsgs include/net/sock.h:2722 [inline] packet_recvmsg+0xb97/0xd00 net/packet/af_packet.c:3489 sock_recvmsg_nosec net/socket.c:1019 [inline] sock_recvmsg+0x11a/0x130 net/socket.c:1040 sock_read_iter+0x176/0x220 net/socket.c:1118 call_read_iter include/linux/fs.h:1845 [inline] new_sync_read fs/read_write.c:389 [inline] vfs_read+0x5e0/0x630 fs/read_write.c:470 ksys_read+0x163/0x1a0 fs/read_write.c:613 __do_sys_read fs/read_write.c:623 [inline] __se_sys_read fs/read_write.c:621 [inline] __x64_sys_read+0x41/0x50 fs/read_write.c:621 do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:50 [inline] do_syscall_64+0x3b/0x90 arch/x86/entry/common.c:80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x72/0xdc read to 0xffff88803c81f258 of 8 bytes by task 19183 on cpu 1: sock_recv_cmsgs include/net/sock.h:2721 [inline] packet_recvmsg+0xb64/0xd00 net/packet/af_packet.c:3489 sock_recvmsg_nosec net/socket.c:1019 [inline] sock_recvmsg+0x11a/0x130 net/socket.c:1040 sock_read_iter+0x176/0x220 net/socket.c:1118 call_read_iter include/linux/fs.h:1845 [inline] new_sync_read fs/read_write.c:389 [inline] vfs_read+0x5e0/0x630 fs/read_write.c:470 ksys_read+0x163/0x1a0 fs/read_write.c:613 __do_sys_read fs/read_write.c:623 [inline] __se_sys_read fs/read_write.c:621 [inline] __x64_sys_read+0x41/0x50 fs/read_write.c:621 do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:50 [inline] do_syscall_64+0x3b/0x90 arch/x86/entry/common.c:80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x72/0xdc value changed: 0xffffffffc4653600 -> 0x0000000000000000 Reported by Kernel Concurrency Sanitizer on: CPU: 1 PID: 19183 Comm: syz-executor.5 Not tainted 6.3.0-rc7-02330-gca6270c12e20 #2 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.16.0-0-gd239552ce722-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014
