sctp: fully initialize sctp_outq in sctp_outq_init

2013-06-14T01:05:24Z

In commit 2f94aabd9f6c925d77aecb3ff020f1cc12ed8f86 (refactor sctp_outq_teardown to insure proper re-initalization) we modified sctp_outq_teardown to use sctp_outq_init to fully re-initalize the outq structure. Steve West recently asked me why I removed the q->error = 0 initalization from sctp_outq_teardown. I did so because I was operating under the impression that sctp_outq_init would properly initalize that value for us, but it doesn't. sctp_outq_init operates under the assumption that the outq struct is all 0's (as it is when called from sctp_association_init), but using it in __sctp_outq_teardown violates that assumption. We should do a memset in sctp_outq_init to ensure that the entire structure is in a known state there instead.

Then, again, allocating, binding, etc, and then killing child processes. This panic then only occurs when ``echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/sctp/auth_enable'' is set. The cause for that is actually very simple: in sctp_endpoint_init() we enter the path of sctp_auth_init_hmacs(). There, we try to allocate our crypto transforms through crypto_alloc_hash(). In our scenario, it then can happen that crypto_alloc_hash() fails with -EINTR from crypto_larval_wait(), thus we bail out and release the socket via sk_common_release(), sctp_destroy_sock() and hit the NULL pointer dereference as soon as we try to access members in the endpoint during sctp_endpoint_free(), since endpoint at that time is still NULL. Now, if we have that case, we do not need to do any cleanup work and just leave the destruction handler.

net: sctp: minor: remove dead code from sctp_packet

2013-04-22T20:25:21Z

struct sctp_packet is currently embedded into sctp_transport or sits on the stack as 'singleton' in sctp_outq_flush(). Therefore, its member 'malloced' is always 0, thus a kfree() is never called. Because of that, we can just remove this code. Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
