CVE-2023-53660
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf, cpumap: Handle skb as well when clean up ptr_ring
The following warning was reported when running xdp_redirect_cpu with both skb-mode and stress-mode enabled:
The reason for the warning is twofold. One is due to the kthread cpu_map_kthread_run() is stopped prematurely. Another one is __cpu_map_ring_cleanup() doesn't handle skb mode and treats skbs in ptr_ring as XDP frames.
Prematurely-stopped kthread will be fixed by the preceding patch and ptr_ring will be empty when __cpu_map_ring_cleanup() is called. But as the comments in __cpu_map_ring_cleanup() said, handling and freeing skbs in ptr_ring as well to "catch any broken behaviour gracefully".
