[PATCH bpf] bpf, sockmap: fix integer overflow in bpf_msg_pop_data() bounds check

From: Sechang Lim <hidden>
Date: 2026-06-09 18:39:41
Also in: bpf, lkml
Subsystem: bpf [general] (safe dynamic programs and tools), bpf [networking] (tcx & tc bpf, sock_addr), networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Alexei Starovoitov, Daniel Borkmann, Andrii Nakryiko, Eduard Zingerman, Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, Martin KaFai Lau, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

start and len are u32, so

	u64 last = start + len;

evaluates start + len in 32-bit and wraps before storing it in last.
The bounds check

	if (start >= offset + l || last > msg->sg.size)
		return -EINVAL;

can then be passed with an out-of-range start/len, after which the pop
loop runs off the end of the scatterlist and sk_msg_shift_left() calls
put_page() on the empty msg->sg.end slot:
