[PATCH net 2/3] vsock: Fix transport_g2h TOCTOU

From: Michal Luczaj <hidden>
Date: 2025-06-18 12:34:53
Also in: lkml, virtualization
Subsystem: networking [general], the rest, vm sockets (af_vsock) · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds, Stefano Garzarella

Function may race with vsock_core_unregister(): transport_g2h may become
NULL after the NULL check. Protect from a potential null-ptr-deref.

KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000118-0x000000000000011f]
RIP: 0010:vsock_find_cid+0x47/0x90
Call Trace:
 __vsock_bind+0x4b2/0x720
 vsock_bind+0x90/0xe0
 __sys_bind+0x14d/0x1e0
 __x64_sys_bind+0x6e/0xc0
 do_syscall_64+0x92/0x1c0
 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x4b/0x53

Fixes: c0cfa2d8a788 ("vsock: add multi-transports support")
