{"id":"CVE-2021-47103","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ninet: fully convert sk-\u003esk_rx_dst to RCU rules\n\nsyzbot reported various issues around early demux,\none being included in this changelog [1]\n\nsk-\u003esk_rx_dst is using RCU protection without clearly\ndocumenting it.\n\nAnd following sequences in tcp_v4_do_rcv()/tcp_v6_do_rcv()\nare not following standard RCU rules.\n\n[a]    dst_release(dst);\n[b]    sk-\u003esk_rx_dst = NULL;\n\nThey look wrong because a delete operation of RCU protected\npointer is supposed to clear the pointer before\nthe call_rcu()/synchronize_rcu() guarding actual memory freeing.\n\nIn some cases indeed, dst could be freed before [b] is done.\n\nWe could cheat by clearing sk_rx_dst before calling\ndst_release(), but this seems the right time to stick\nto standard RCU annotations and debugging facilities.\n\n[1]\nBUG: KASAN: use-after-free in dst_check include/net/dst.h:470
