In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/smc: fix general protection fault in __smc_diag_dump The syzbot report a crash: Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xfbd5a5d5a0000003: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN NOPTI KASAN: maybe wild-memory-access in range [0xdead4ead00000018-0xdead4ead0000001f] CPU: 1 UID: 0 PID: 6949 Comm: syz.0.335 Not tainted syzkaller #0 PREEMPT(full) Hardware name: Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 08/18/2025 RIP: 0010:smc_diag_msg_common_fill net/smc/smc_diag.c:44 [inline] RIP: 0010:__smc_diag_dump.constprop.0+0x3ca/0x2550 net/smc/smc_diag.c:89 Call Trace: <TASK> smc_diag_dump_proto+0x26d/0x420 net/smc/smc_diag.c:217 smc_diag_dump+0x27/0x90 net/smc/smc_diag.c:234 netlink_dump+0x539/0xd30 net/netlink/af_netlink.c:2327 __netlink_dump_start+0x6d6/0x990 net/netlink/af_netlink.c:2442 netlink_dump_start include/linux/netlink.h:341 [inline] smc_diag_handler_dump+0x1f9/0x240 net/smc/smc_diag.c:251 __sock_diag_cmd net/core/sock_diag.c:249 [inline] sock_diag_rcv_msg+0x438/0x790 net/core/sock_diag.c:285 netlink_rcv_skb+0x158/0x420 net/netlink/af_netlink.c:2552 netlink_unicast_kernel net/netlink/af_netlink.c:1320 [inline] netlink_unicast+0x5a7/0x870 net/netlink/af_netlink.c:1346 netlink_sendmsg+0x8d1/0xdd0 net/netlink/af_netlink.c:1896 sock_sendmsg_nosec net/socket.c:714 [inline] __sock_sendmsg net/socket.c:729 [inline] ____sys_sendmsg+0xa95/0xc70 net/socket.c:2614 ___sys_sendmsg+0x134/0x1d0 net/socket.c:2668 __sys_sendmsg+0x16d/0x220 net/socket.c:2700 do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:63 [inline] do_syscall_64+0xcd/0x4e0 arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:94 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f </TASK> The process like this: (CPU1) | (CPU2) ---------------------------------|------------------------------- inet_create() | // init clcsock to NULL | sk = sk_alloc() | | // unexpectedly change clcsock | inet_init_csk_locks() | | // add sk to hash table | smc_inet_init_sock() | smc_sk_init() | smc_hash_sk() | | // traverse the hash table | smc_diag_dump_proto | __smc_diag_dump() | // visit wrong clcsock | smc_diag_msg_common_fill() // alloc clcsock | smc_create_clcsk | sock_create_kern | With CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=y, the smc->clcsock is unexpectedly changed in inet_init_csk_locks(). The INET_PROTOSW_ICSK flag is no need by smc, just remove it. After removing the INET_PROTOSW_ICSK flag, this patch alse revert commit 6fd27ea183c2 ("net/smc: fix lacks of icsk_syn_mss with IPPROTO_SMC") to avoid casting smc_sock to inet_connection_sock.
