From 66b2c338adce580dfce2199591e65e2bab889cff Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pietro Borrello Date: Sat, 4 Feb 2023 17:39:22 +0000 Subject: tap: tap_open(): correctly initialize socket uid sock_init_data() assumes that the `struct socket` passed in input is contained in a `struct socket_alloc` allocated with sock_alloc(). However, tap_open() passes a `struct socket` embedded in a `struct tap_queue` allocated with sk_alloc(). This causes a type confusion when issuing a container_of() with SOCK_INODE() in sock_init_data() which results in assigning a wrong sk_uid to the `struct sock` in input. On default configuration, the type confused field overlaps with padding bytes between `int vnet_hdr_sz` and `struct tap_dev __rcu *tap` in `struct tap_queue`, which makes the uid of all tap sockets 0, i.e., the root one. Fix the assignment by using sock_init_data_uid(). Fixes: 86741ec25462 ("net: core: Add a UID field to struct sock.") Signed-off-by: Pietro Borrello Reviewed-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.
