When the check is false (e.g., TCP_NEW_SYN_RECV state with\na request_sock), dst_reg should be zeroed but is not, leaving the stale\nctx pointer:\n\n - SOCK_OPS_GET_SK: dst_reg retains the ctx pointer, passes NULL checks\n   as PTR_TO_SOCKET_OR_NULL, and can be used as a bogus socket pointer,\n   leading to stack-out-of-bounds access in helpers like\n   bpf_skc_to_tcp6_sock().\n\n - SOCK_OPS_GET_FIELD: dst_reg retains the ctx pointer which the\n   verifier believes is a SCALAR_VALUE, leaking a kernel pointer.\n\nFix both macros by:\n - Changing JMP_A(1) to JMP_A(2) in the fullsock path to skip the\n   added instruction.\n - Adding BPF_MOV64_IMM(si->dst_reg, 0) after the temp register\n   restore in the !fullsock path, placed after the restore because\n   dst_reg == src_reg means we need src_reg intact to read ctx->temp."}],"metrics":[{"cvssV3_1":{"version":"3.1","vectorString":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","baseScore":7.8,"baseSeverity":"HIGH"}}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["net/core/filter.c"],"versions":[{"version":"fd09af010788a884de1c39537c288830c3d305db","lessThan":"18e3ffde1822f0b48b1753bf34aa97ce839df1d8","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"fd09af010788a884de1c39537c288830c3d305db","lessThan":"10f86a2a5c91fc4c4d001960f1c21abe52545ef6","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"48be3df15aa19c04eadf156c9129293c9a10389f","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"cd4644d904e1d153d516e73e2e127e7a2fe687e1","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"6e0bc946cbeec538322820786b5fb5200a2216ab","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"a7e52f7f675046d9ffc5692d815fa67c82fcdbf5","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"db7f8c57dbdd31f7e59f8dc8d1e1b38607a320ef","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"5.7.18","lessThan":"5.8","status":"affected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.8.4","lessThan":"5.9","status":"affected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.4.61","lessThan":"5.5","status":"affected","versionType":"semver"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["net/core/filter.c"],"versions":[{"version":"5.9","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"5.9","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.0.10","lessThanOrEqual":"7.0.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.1","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.9","versionEndExcluding":"7.0.10"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.9","versionEndExcluding":"7.1"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.7.18"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.8.4"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.4.61"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.7.18"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.8.4"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/18e3ffde1822f0b48b1753bf34aa97ce839df1d8"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/10f86a2a5c91fc4c4d001960f1c21abe52545ef6"}],"title":"bpf: Fix same-register dst/src OOB read and pointer leak in sock_ops","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
