In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

Revert "smb: client: fix TCP timers deadlock after rmmod"

This reverts commit e9f2517a3e18a54a3943c098d2226b245d488801.

Commit e9f2517a3e18 ("smb: client: fix TCP timers deadlock after rmmod") is intended to fix a null-ptr-deref in LOCKDEP, which is mentioned as CVE-2024-54680, but is actually did not fix anything; The issue can be reproduced on top of it. [0]

Also, it reverted the change by commit ef7134c7fc48 ("smb: client: Fix use-after-free of network namespace.") and introduced a real issue by reviving the kernel TCP socket.

When a reconnect happens for a CIFS connection, the socket state transitions to FIN_WAIT_1. Then, inet_csk_clear_xmit_timers_sync() in tcp_close() stops all timers for the socket.

If an incoming FIN packet is lost, the socket will stay at FIN_WAIT_1 forever, and such sockets could be leaked up to net.ipv4.tcp_max_orphans.

Usually, FIN can be retransmitted by the peer, but if the peer aborts the connection, the issue comes into reality.

I warned about this privately by pointing out the exact report [1], but the bogus fix was finally merged.

So, we should not stop the timers to finally kill the connection on our side in that case, meaning we must not use a kernel socket for TCP whose sk->sk_net_refcnt is 0.

The kernel socket does not have a reference to its netns to make it possible to tear down netns without cleaning up every resource in it.

For example, tunnel devices us…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

smb: client: Fix netns refcount imbalance causing leaks and use-after-free

Commit ef7134c7fc48 ("smb: client: Fix use-after-free of network namespace.") attempted to fix a netns use-after-free issue by manually adjusting reference counts via sk->sk_net_refcnt and sock_inuse_add().

However, a later commit e9f2517a3e18 ("smb: client: fix TCP timers deadlock after rmmod") pointed out that the approach of manually setting sk->sk_net_refcnt in the first commit was technically incorrect, as sk->sk_net_refcnt should only be set for user sockets. It led to issues like TCP timers not being cleared properly on close. The second commit moved to a model of just holding an extra netns reference for server->ssocket using get_net(), and dropping it when the server is torn down.

But there remain some gaps in the get_net()/put_net() balancing added by these commits. The incomplete reference handling in these fixes results in two issues:

1. Netns refcount leaks[1]

The problem process is as follows:

``` mount.cifs cifsd

cifs_do_mount cifs_mount cifs_mount_get_session cifs_get_tcp_session get_net() /* First get net. */ ip_connect generic_ip_connect /* Try port 445 */ get_net() ->connect() /* Failed */ put_net() generic_ip_connect /* Try port 139 */ get_net() /* Missing matching put_net() for this get_n…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:mm/mempolicy: fix migrate_to_node() assuming there is at least one VMA in a MMWe currently assume that there is at least one VMA in a MM, which isn ttrue.So we might end up having find_vma() return NULL, to then de-referenceNULL.
