      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nsmc: Fix use-after-free in __pnet_find_base_ndev().\n\nsyzbot reported use-after-free of net_device in __pnet_find_base_ndev(),\nwhich was called during connect(). [0]\n\nsmc_pnet_find_ism_resource() fetches sk_dst_get(sk)->dev and passes\ndown to pnet_find_base_ndev(), where RTNL is held.  Then, UAF happened\nat __pnet_find_base_ndev() when the dev is first used.\n\nThis means dev had already been freed before acquiring RTNL in\npnet_find_base_ndev().\n\nWhile dev is going away, dst->dev could be swapped with blackhole_netdev,\nand the dev's refcnt by dst will be released.\n\nWe must hold dev's refcnt before calling smc_pnet_find_ism_resource().\n\nAlso, smc_pnet_find_roce_resource() has the same problem.\n\nLet's use __sk_dst_get() and dst_dev_rcu() in the two functions.\n\n[0]:\nBUG: KASAN: use-after-free in __pnet_find_base_ndev+0x1b1/0x1c0 net/smc/smc_pnet.c:926\nRead of size 1 at addr ffff888036bac33a by task syz.0.3632/18609\n\nCPU: 1 UID: 0 PID: 18609 Comm: syz.0.3632 Not tainted syzkaller #0 PREEMPT(full)\nHardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 08/18/2025\nCall Trace:\n <TASK>\n dump_stack_lvl+0x189/0x250 lib/dump_stack.c:120\n print_address_description mm/kasan/report.c:378 [inline]\n print_report+0xca/0x240 mm/kasan/report.c:482\n kasan_report+0x118/0x150 mm/kasan/report.c:595\n __pnet_find_base_ndev+0x1b1/0x1c0 net/smc/smc_pnet.c:926\n pnet_find_base_ndev net/smc/smc_pnet.c:946 [inline]\n smc_pnet_find_ism_by_pnetid net/smc/smc_pnet.c:1103 [inline]\n smc_pnet_find_ism_resource+0xef/0x390 net/smc/smc_pnet.c:1154\n smc_find_ism_device net/smc/af_smc.c:1030 [inline]\n smc_find_proposal_devices net/smc/af_smc.c:1115 [inline]\n __smc_connect+0x372/0x1890 net/smc/af_smc.c:1545\n smc_connect+0x877/0xd90 net/smc/af_smc.c:1715\n __sys_connect_file net/socket.c:2086 [inline]\n __sys_connect+0x313/0x440 net/socket.c:2105\n __do_sys_connect net/socket.c:2111 [inline]\n __se_sys_connect net/socket.c:2108 [inline]\n __x64_sys_connect+0x7a/0x90 net/socket.c:2108\n do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:63 [inline]\n do_syscall_64+0xfa/0x3b0 arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:94\n entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f\nRIP: 0033:0x7f47cbf8eba9\nCode: ff ff c3 66 2e 0f 1f 84 00 00 00 00 00 0f 1f 40 00 48 89 f8 48 89 f7 48 89 d6 48 89 ca 4d 89 c2 4d 89 c8 4c 8b 4c 24 08 0f 05 <48> 3d 01 f0 ff ff 73 01 c3 48 c7 c1 a8 ff ff ff f7 d8 64 89 01 48\nRSP: 002b:00007f47ccdb1038 EFLAGS: 00000246 ORIG_RAX: 000000000000002a\nRAX: ffffffffffffffda RBX: 00007f47cc1d5fa0 RCX: 00007f47cbf8eba9\nRDX: 0000000000000010 RSI: 0000200000000280 RDI: 000000000000000b\nRBP: 00007f47cc011e19 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000000\nR10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000246 R12: 0000000000000000\nR13: 00007f47cc1d6038 R14: 00007f47cc1d5fa0 R15: 00007ffc512f8aa8\n </TASK>\n\nThe buggy address belongs to the physical page:\npage: refcount:0 mapcount:0 mapping:0000000000000000 index:0xffff888036bacd00 pfn:0x36bac\nflags: 0xfff00000000000(node=0|zone=1|lastcpupid=0x7ff)\nraw: 00fff00000000000 ffffea0001243d08 ffff8880b863fdc0 0000000000000000\nraw: ffff888036bacd00 0000000000000000 00000000ffffffff 0000000000000000\npage dumped because: kasan: bad access detected\npage_owner tracks the page as freed\npage last allocated via order 2, migratetype Unmovable, gfp_mask 0x446dc0(GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT|__GFP_ZERO|__GFP_NOWARN|__GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL|__GFP_COMP), pid 16741, tgid 16741 (syz-executor), ts 343313197788, free_ts 380670750466\n set_page_owner include/linux/page_owner.h:32 [inline]\n post_alloc_hook+0x240/0x2a0 mm/page_alloc.c:1851\n prep_new_page mm/page_alloc.c:1859 [inline]\n get_page_from_freelist+0x21e4/0x22c0 mm/page_alloc.c:3858\n __alloc_frozen_pages_noprof+0x181/0x370 mm/page_alloc.c:5148\n alloc_pages_mpol+0x232/0x4a0 mm/mempolicy.c:2416\n ___kmalloc_large_node+0x5f/0x1b0 mm/slub.c:4317\n __kmalloc_large_node_noprof+0x18/0x90 mm/slub.c:4348\n __do_kmalloc_node mm/slub.c:4364 [inline]\n __kvmalloc_node\n---truncated---",
