[PATCH net v8 0/3] xfrm: fix vti tunnel device use-after-free across async crypto resumption

[Qihang]

This replaces the earlier vti/vti6 series and the reference-transfer
rework.

vti_input() and vti6_input_proto() cache the tunnel pointer in the skb
control buffer without taking a reference. With async crypto, the
receive callback runs from crypto completion and may run after the
tunnel device has been torn down, causing a use-after-free when the
callback dereferences the cached tunnel.

The input hook takes a reference on the tunnel device when caching the
tunnel. A successful receive callback leaves the cached tunnel in
place; xfrm_input() releases the reference on every exit, including
after delivery and on drop paths. The error callback only updates the
error counters, so the common drop path releases the tunnel reference
after the skb has been freed. IPTFS, which can free or consume the
outer skb itself, releases the reference through xfrm_input_drop() or
xfrm_input_consume(). Patch 1 makes the two exits that still used
skb->dev after the async reference was dropped use it first. Patch 3
sets the address family before the early invalid-state drop, which now
has to release the cached tunnel.

Patch 2 is new. The IPTFS drop timer is cancelled when an in-progress
reassembly completes, although the same timer ages out the reorder
window. A window that is never drained holds its queued packets and,
with patch 3, the tunnel reference they carry, so the device could not
be unregistered. Patch 2 rearms the timer for the window's own deadline
once the reassembly is done, so that a later reassembly does not
inherit the earlier expiry.

Patch 2 is deliberately minimal. It only bounds the stale window, which
is what 3/3 needs so that the reference it adds cannot pin the device; a
wider rework of the IPTFS timer is orthogonal and can land on its own.

Rebased onto net main fafbc4051, which already carries the iptfs skb
leak fix on the payload error path. That fix moved the done label ahead
of the delivery loop, so the inner packets parsed before a validation
failure are now delivered. The drain that the previous revision added
to 3/3 is therefore gone.

The issue was found by source audit of the VTI input path (LLM-assisted
review): the tunnel pointer cached in the skb control buffer is
dereferenced by the receive callback, which with async crypto can run
after the device has been torn down, and nothing keeps the device alive
across that window.  It was confirmed with a KASAN reproducer on arm64
(async ESP; deleting the VTI device inside the crypto window gives
"slab-use-after-free in vti_rcv_cb").

Changes since v7:
- rebased onto net main fafbc4051.  The drain of @sublist added in v5 is
  dropped: "xfrm: iptfs: fix skb leak on error in
  __input_process_payload()" is in net now and delivers those packets.
- new patch 2: hand the IPTFS drop timer back to the reorder window when a
  reassembly completes, so a stalled window cannot pin the state (and the
  tunnel reference added by patch 3) forever; reported by the AI review
  of v7.
- the former 2/3 (address family before the invalid-state check) is
  folded into 3/3, because the early drop path in 3/3 needs the family
  to release the cached tunnel. This gives a clean bisect: no
  intermediate commit sets the family without using it.
- the sentence in 3/3 that claimed the parked skbs are always released by
  the drop timer is gone; patch 2 is what makes that true.

Changes since v6:
- patch 1 also drops the skb->dev reference that is held across an async
  resumption only after gro_cells_receive() in the decaps success exit;
  that exit still used skb->dev after the reference was dropped (found
  by the netdev AI review).

Changes since v5:
- cover letter only: record how the issue was found.

Changes since v4:
- IPTFS: when an inner packet fails validation, __input_process_payload()
  can reach the drop path before the inner packets queued for delivery
  are sent. Drop those queued packets as well so the outer skb's tunnel
  device reference is not leaked (found by the Sashiko review of v4 3/3).

Changes since v3:
- the cached pointer is always a tunnel; the address family selects its
  type, and a non-NULL tunnel slot denotes one held device reference
- xfrm_input() takes the tunnel device out of the skb before
  gro_cells_receive()/transport_finish(), which may consume the skb
- the device reference is dropped only after the skb has been freed,
  including on error paths
- IPTFS passes the state's address family explicitly instead of
  inferring it from the secpath; consumed skbs keep consume_skb()
  semantics and drop paths keep their skb drop reason
- drop the xfrmi changes: it re-looks up the interface and does not
  participate in the reference transfer
- merge the reference and IPTFS changes into one patch so the series
  remains bisectable
- the gro_cells NAPI window is pre-existing and is documented, not
  changed

Runtime testing (aarch64 QEMU; KASAN for UAF detection):
- VTI async success and error: RTM_DELLINK completes without a KASAN
  report; the unfixed tree reports slab-use-after-free in vti_rcv_cb.
- Async resume with the SA deleted during the crypto window: the
  reference is released and the device is removed; with patch 3
  reverted, xfrm_input_take_tunnel_dev() warns and
  unregister_netdevice() waits for vti0.
- IPTFS outer-skb free: RTM_DELLINK completes; with the
  !first_skb xfrm_input_drop() reverted to kfree_skb(), the reference
  leaks and unregister_netdevice() waits for vti0.

The IPTFS drop-timer/reorder/state-teardown paths, including the
window-pin sequence behind patch 2, are covered by code audit, not by
dedicated runtime triggers.

v8 was build-tested on fafbc4051: the arm64 objects touched by the
series (xfrm, xfrm_iptfs, ip_vti, ip6_vti, xfrm6_input) compile with
XFRM, IPTFS, VTI and ESP enabled.

Tooling: the source audit, the patch text and parts of these messages
were produced with an AI coding assistant under my direction. I reviewed
the result and stand behind every line of it; the build and runtime
results above were obtained from earlier revisions of these changes.

[PATCH net v8 1/3] xfrm: use skb->dev before dropping the reference held across async

[Qihang]

The skb->dev reference that is held across an async resumption is
released before skb->dev is used, on two exits of xfrm_input():

  - the drop path runs the receive callbacks after the reference is
    dropped; xfrmi_rcv_cb() reads skb->dev->ifindex, so it can race a
    concurrent teardown of the device
  - the decaps success exit calls gro_cells_receive() after the
    reference is dropped; gro_cells_receive() reads skb->dev

Use skb->dev first and drop the reference afterwards in both cases,
matching what the transport exit already does.

The early drop for a state that is no longer valid releases the
reference on its own; let the drop label handle that reference too.

[PATCH net v8 2/3] xfrm: iptfs: hand the drop timer back to the reorder window

[Qihang]

__iptfs_reassem_done() cancels the drop timer whenever an in-progress
packet finishes reassembly, even if the reorder window still holds
out-of-order packets.  Those packets were saved with a drop time of their
own and the same timer is what ages them out.

If the missing packet never arrives, the window is never drained: the
queued packets are not delivered, and each one keeps the xfrm_state
reference it took from its secpath, so the state cannot be destroyed.
Nothing re-arms the timer to clean that up.  iptfs_set_window_drop_times()
only starts it when the walk back through the window reaches the empty
slot 0, and an occupied slot 0 stops the walk.

Cancel the timer as before and, if the window has entries, arm it again
for the drop time of slot 0.  Leaving the queued timer in place instead
would keep the expiry of the reassembly that just finished, which is
earlier than the window's own deadline; a reassembly started in between
would then not arm its timer and could be dropped before its budget ran
out.  Arming it for slot 0 keeps what iptfs_drop_timer() expects, one
deadline that belongs to the window.

[PATCH net v8 3/3] xfrm: hold the tunnel device reference across the input path

[Qihang]

vti_input() and vti6_input_proto() cache the tunnel pointer in the skb
control buffer without taking a reference.  With async crypto the
receive callback runs from the crypto completion, after a possible
device teardown, and dereferences the freed tunnel device:

    BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in vti_rcv_cb

Take a reference on the tunnel device when the pointer is cached.  The
tunnel is the device's private area, so the reference keeps the tunnel
structure alive as well.  xfrm6_rcv_spi() takes the same reference for
the tunnel it is given; it is a separate entry point, so vti6 does not
hold the reference twice.

A successful vti/vti6 callback leaves the cached tunnel in place for
xfrm_input() to release after delivery.  A callback that fails only
updates the error counters; the common drop path releases the reference
after the skb has been freed.  The helper takes the device out of the
skb before gro_cells_receive() and transport_finish(), which may already
consume the skb, so the device reference is always dropped after the skb
is gone.  The early drop for a state that is no longer valid releases
the reference too, and needs the address family for that, so set the
family before the validity check.

The reference is released right after gro_cells_receive().  The NAPI
that processes the queued skb later still reads skb->dev without a
reference.  That window is pre-existing on the synchronous path as well
and is not changed here.

IPTFS consumes the outer skb itself and frees it directly, so it must
release the reference as well.  The IPTFS state carries the address
family the tunnel was resolved for, and the caller passes it in.  Add
xfrm_input_drop() and xfrm_input_consume() for the outer-skb free paths
in __input_process_payload(), iptfs_input_ordered(), iptfs_input(),
iptfs_drop_timer() and iptfs_destroy_state().  Only the outer skb
carries the cached tunnel; the inner skbs built by iptfs_alloc_skb()
have a zeroed control buffer, so they do not release it.  The drop paths
keep their skb drop reason and the consumed skb keeps consume_skb()
semantics.
