[PATCH bpf v2 1/2] bpf: Fix out-of-bounds read of sk_protocol in bpf_sock_destroy()

From: Jiayuan Chen <jiayuan.chen@linux.dev>
Date: 2026-09-04 09:50:22
Also in: bpf, linux-kselftest, 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, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

sk_protocol lives in struct sock, not in struct sock_common. A timewait
or request sock handed to bpf_sock_destroy() by the tcp iterator is
neither, so reading sk->sk_protocol runs past the object:

==================================================================

Only check sk_protocol on full socks. tcp_abort() already knows how to
deal with TIME_WAIT and NEW_SYN_RECV socks. Also fix the comment, it
never matched the code.

A reviewer asked to add ENOENT to the list of errors in the comment.
I'd rather not list what the handlers return, that can change any time,
so the comment now says "EOPNOTSUPP, or whatever the protocol specific
destroy handler returns".

v1 -> v2: modify comment AND avoid flaky about selftest
