Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tcp/dccp: Don't use timer_pending() in reqsk_queue_unlink(). Martin KaFai Lau reported use-after-free [0] in reqsk_timer_handler(). """ We are seeing a use-after-free from a bpf prog attached to trace_tcp_retransmit_synack. The program passes the req->sk to the bpf_sk_storage_get_tracing kernel helper which does check for null before using it. """ The commit 83fccfc3940c ("inet: fix potential deadlock in reqsk_queue_unlink()") added timer_pending() in reqsk_queue_unlink() not to call del_timer_sync() from reqsk_timer_handler(), but it introduced a small race window. Before the timer is called, expire_timers() calls detach_timer(timer, true) to clear timer->entry.pprev and marks it as not pending. If reqsk_queue_unlink() checks timer_pending() just after expire_timers() calls detach_timer(), TCP will miss del_timer_sync(); the reqsk timer will continue running and send multiple SYN+ACKs until it expires. The reported UAF could happen if req->sk is close()d earlier than the timer expiration, which is 63s by default. The scenario would be 1. inet_csk_complete_hashdance() calls inet_csk_reqsk_queue_drop(), but del_timer_sync() is missed 2. reqsk timer is executed and scheduled again 3. req->sk is accept()ed and reqsk_put() decrements rsk_refcnt, but reqsk timer still has another one, and inet_csk_accept() does not clear req->sk for non-TFO sockets 4. sk is close()d 5. reqsk timer is executed again, and BPF touches req->sk Let's not use timer_pending() by passing the caller context to __inet_csk_reqsk_queue_drop(). Note that reqsk timer is pinned, so the issue does not happen in most use cases.

Antes de que se llame al temporizador, expire_timers() llama a detach_timer(timer, true) para borrar timer-\u0026gt;entry.pprev y lo marca como no pendiente. Si reqsk_queue_unlink() comprueba timer_pending() justo despu\u00e9s de que expire_timers() llame a detach_timer(), TCP no detectar\u00e1 del_timer_sync(); el temporizador reqsk seguir\u00e1 funcionando y enviar\u00e1 varios SYN+ACK hasta que expire. El UAF informado podr\u00eda ocurrir si se cierra req-\u0026gt;sk antes de la expiraci\u00f3n del temporizador, que es 63 s por defecto. El escenario ser\u00eda 1. inet_csk_complete_hashdance() llama a inet_csk_reqsk_queue_drop(), pero se omite del_timer_sync() 2. se ejecuta el temporizador reqsk y se programa nuevamente 3. se acepta req-\u0026gt;sk y reqsk_put() decrementa rsk_refcnt, pero el temporizador reqsk a\u00fan tiene otro, e inet_csk_accept() no borra req-\u0026gt;sk para sockets que no sean TFO 4. se cierra sk 5. se ejecuta nuevamente el temporizador reqsk y BPF toca req-\u0026gt;sk No usemos timer_pending() pasando el contexto del llamador a __inet_csk_reqsk_queue_drop(). Tenga en cuenta que el temporizador reqsk est\u00e1 fijado, por lo que el problema no ocurre en la mayor\u00eda de los casos de uso.

Any internet-facing listening TCP socket is reachable with no local access.\nAC:L - The attacker controls both sides of the race: it chooses when the timer is armed (SYN \u2192 `jiffies + TCP_TIMEOUT_INIT`, 1 s) and when the drop executes (ACK/RST/ICMP at t\u22481 s), and can run thousands of connections in parallel to hit the window reliably. The `TIMER_PINNED` same-CPU argument is defeated by attacker-chosen droppers that run on a different CPU \u2014 ICMP errors via `tcp_req_err()`, plus `tcp_abort()` and `inet_twsk_purge()` in process/workqueue context.\nPR:N - The entire path is pre-authentication TCP three-way-handshake and ICMP error handling in the kernel network stack, executed before any application-level credential check. An unauthenticated remote host merely needs to connect to a listening port.\nUI:N - No victim action is required; the server\u0027s ordinary `accept()`/`close()` lifecycle completes the scenario, and the ICMP and RST droppers need no local activity at all.\nS:U - The corruption is confined to kernel memory within the same security authority \u2014 freed socket objects and listener accept-queue accounting. No VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - This is a use-after-free read of a freed 2376-byte `struct tcp_sock` (KFENCE-confirmed); `bpf_sk_storage_get()` reads `sk-\u003esk_state` and follows the stale `sk-\u003esk_bpf_storage` pointer, returning `sdata-\u003edata` to the caller. An attacker who grooms the reallocated slab object turns that into an arbitrary kernel read primitive.\nI:H - The same UAF yields a write primitive \u2014 with `BPF_SK_STORAGE_GET_F_CREATE` the helper performs `refcount_inc_not_zero(\u0026sk-\u003esk_refcnt)` and `bpf_local_storage_update()` against the freed/reallocated object, and per CVSS kernel guidance a use-after-free is treated as exploitable for control-flow hijacking. Independently, the double `atomic_dec(\u0026queue-\u003eyoung)` persistently corrupts the listener\u0027s SYN-queue accounting.\nA:H - Dereferencing the freed socket oopses or panics the kernel, and the condition is remotely repeatable across many connections. Even without a crash, each hijacked request floods SYN+ACK retransmissions for ~63 s and the underflowed `young` counter permanently clamps `max_syn_ack_retries` to 2, degrading the listener for its remaining lifetime."

How durations are calculated

Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.

Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
