Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

bpf, sockmap: Fix self-redirect copied_seq double-counting

When a BPF stream_verdict program redirects an skb back to the same socket (self-redirect with BPF_F_INGRESS), sk_psock_verdict_apply() calls tcp_eat_skb() which advances tcp_sk->copied_seq. However, the skb is then delivered to the socket's psock ingress queue and later read by tcp_bpf_recvmsg_parser(), which also advances copied_seq via the copied_from_self accounting path. This double-counting causes copied_seq to advance by 2x the actual data length, triggering:

TCP recvmsg seq # bug 2: copied BF2E806, seq BF2E7FD, \ rcvnxt BF2E806, fl 0 WARNING: net/ipv4/tcp.c:2745 at tcp_recvmsg_locked+0x72b/0x2640 Call Trace: tcp_recvmsg+0x10a/0x500 sock_recvmsg+0x168/0x1d0 __sys_recvfrom+0x19a/0x2a0 __x64_sys_recvfrom+0xe4/0x1f0 do_syscall_64+0xf7/0x530 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f

Fix this by converting self-redirect verdict to __SK_PASS at the beginning of sk_psock_verdict_apply(). This bypasses the __SK_REDIRECT case entirely (which calls sk_psock_eat_skb), letting the __SK_PASS path queue the skb to the psock ingress queue. The data is then read via tcp_bpf_recvmsg_parser(), which advances copied_seq exactly once through copied_from_self. Cross-socket redirects continue through __SK_REDIRECT with sk_psock_eat_skb() unchanged.

However, the\nskb is then delivered to the socket\u0027s psock ingress queue and later\nread by tcp_bpf_recvmsg_parser(), which also advances copied_seq via\nthe copied_from_self accounting path. This double-counting causes\ncopied_seq to advance by 2x the actual data length, triggering:\n\n  TCP recvmsg seq # bug 2: copied BF2E806, seq BF2E7FD, \\\n\t\t\t   rcvnxt BF2E806, fl 0\n  WARNING: net/ipv4/tcp.c:2745 at tcp_recvmsg_locked+0x72b/0x2640\n  Call Trace:\n   tcp_recvmsg+0x10a/0x500\n   sock_recvmsg+0x168/0x1d0\n   __sys_recvfrom+0x19a/0x2a0\n   __x64_sys_recvfrom+0xe4/0x1f0\n   do_syscall_64+0xf7/0x530\n   entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f\n\n  cleanup rbuf bug: copied BF2E806 seq BF2E806 rcvnxt BF2E806\n  WARNING: net/ipv4/tcp.c:1609 at tcp_cleanup_rbuf+0xf2/0x1c0\n  Call Trace:\n   tcp_recvmsg_locked+0x8d1/0x2640\n   tcp_recvmsg+0x10a/0x500\n   sock_recvmsg+0x168/0x1d0\n   __sys_recvfrom+0x19a/0x2a0\n   __x64_sys_recvfrom+0xe4/0x1f0\n   do_syscall_64+0xf7/0x530\n   entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f\n\nFix this by converting self-redirect verdict to __SK_PASS at the\nbeginning of sk_psock_verdict_apply(). This bypasses the\n__SK_REDIRECT case entirely (which calls sk_psock_eat_skb), letting\nthe __SK_PASS path queue the skb to the psock ingress queue. The\ndata is then read via tcp_bpf_recvmsg_parser(), which advances\ncopied_seq exactly once through copied_from_self. Cross-socket\nredirects continue through __SK_REDIRECT with sk_psock_eat_skb()\nunchanged."

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.
