      "title": "skbuff: Fix a race between coalescing and releasing SKBs",
      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nskbuff: Fix a race between coalescing and releasing SKBs\n\nCommit 1effe8ca4e34 (\"skbuff: fix coalescing for page_pool fragment\nrecycling\") allowed coalescing to proceed with non page pool page and page\npool page when @from is cloned, i.e.\n\nto->pp_recycle    --> false\nfrom->pp_recycle  --> true\nskb_cloned(from)  --> true\n\nHowever, it actually requires skb_cloned(@from) to hold true until\ncoalescing finishes in this situation. If the other cloned SKB is\nreleased while the merging is in process, from_shinfo->nr_frags will be\nset to 0 toward the end of the function, causing the increment of frag\npage _refcount to be unexpectedly skipped resulting in inconsistent\nreference counts. Later when SKB(@to) is released, it frees the page\ndirectly even though the page pool page is still in use, leading to\nuse-after-free or double-free errors. So it should be prohibited.\n\nThe double-free error message below prompted us to investigate:\nBUG: Bad page state in process swapper/1  pfn:0e0d1\npage:00000000c6548b28 refcount:-1 mapcount:0 mapping:0000000000000000\nindex:0x2 pfn:0xe0d1\nflags: 0xfffffc0000000(node=0|zone=1|lastcpupid=0x1fffff)\nraw: 000fffffc0000000 0000000000000000 ffffffff00000101 0000000000000000\nraw: 0000000000000002 0000000000000000 ffffffffffffffff 0000000000000000\npage dumped because: nonzero _refcount\n\nCPU: 1 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/1 Tainted: G            E      6.2.0+\nCall Trace:\n <IRQ>\ndump_stack_lvl+0x32/0x50\nbad_page+0x69/0xf0\nfree_pcp_prepare+0x260/0x2f0\nfree_unref_page+0x20/0x1c0\nskb_release_data+0x10b/0x1a0\nnapi_consume_skb+0x56/0x150\nnet_rx_action+0xf0/0x350\n? __napi_schedule+0x79/0x90\n__do_softirq+0xc8/0x2b1\n__irq_exit_rcu+0xb9/0xf0\ncommon_interrupt+0x82/0xa0\n</IRQ>\n<TASK>\nasm_common_interrupt+0x22/0x40\nRIP: 0010:default_idle+0xb/0x20",
