  "summary": "net/handshake: Drain pending requests at net namespace exit",
  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet/handshake: Drain pending requests at net namespace exit\n\nThe arguments to list_splice_init() in handshake_net_exit() are\nreversed. The call moves the local empty \"requests\" list onto\nhn->hn_requests, leaving the local list empty, so the subsequent\ndrain loop runs zero iterations. Pending handshake requests that\nhad not yet been accepted are not torn down when the net namespace\nis destroyed; each one keeps a reference on a socket file and on\nthe handshake_req allocation.\n\nPass the source and destination in the documented order\n(list_splice_init(list, head) moves list onto head) so the pending\nlist is transferred to the local scratch list and drained through\nhandshake_complete().\n\nFixing the splice direction exposes a list-corruption race. After\nthe splice each req->hr_list still has non-empty link pointers,\nthreading the stack-local scratch list rather than hn_requests.\nA concurrent handshake_req_cancel() -- for example, from sunrpc's\nTLS timeout on a kernel socket whose netns reference was not\ntaken -- finds the request through the rhashtable, calls\nremove_pending(), and sees !list_empty(&req->hr_list).\n__remove_pending_locked() then list_del_init()s an entry off the\nscratch list while the drain iterates, corrupting it. The same\ncall arriving after the drain loop has run list_del() on an\nentry hits LIST_POISON instead.\n\nHave remove_pending() check HANDSHAKE_F_NET_DRAINING under\nhn_lock and report not-found when drain is in progress. The\ndrain has already taken ownership; handshake_complete()'s existing\ntest_and_set on HANDSHAKE_F_REQ_COMPLETED still arbitrates\nbetween drain and cancel for who calls the consumer's hp_done. Use\nlist_del_init() rather than list_del() in the drain so req->hr_list\ndoes not carry LIST_POISON after drain releases the entry.\n\nThe DRAINING guard in remove_pending() makes cancel return false,\nbut cancel still falls through to test_and_set_bit on\nHANDSHAKE_F_REQ_COMPLETED and drops the request's hr_file reference.\nWithout another pin, if that is the last reference, sk_destruct frees\nthe request while it is still linked on the drain loop's local list.\nPin each request's hr_file under hn_lock before releasing the list,\nand drop that drain pin after the loop finishes with the request.",
