Title
bpf, test_run: Fix use-after-free issue in eth_skb_pkt_type()
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf, test_run: Fix use-after-free issue in eth_skb_pkt_type() KMSAN reported a use-after-free issue in eth_skb_pkt_type()[1]. The cause of the issue was that eth_skb_pkt_type() accessed skb's data that didn't contain an Ethernet header. This occurs when bpf_prog_test_run_xdp() passes an invalid value as the user_data argument to bpf_test_init(). Fix this by returning an error when user_data is less than ETH_HLEN in bpf_test_init(). Additionally, remove the check for "if (user_size > size)" as it is unnecessary.

Per kernel scoring guidance, BPF syscall-reachable bugs are Local.\nAC:L - The attacker fully controls `data_size_in`, `batch_size`, `repeat` and the XDP program, so the out-of-range read is triggered deterministically on every invocation with no race to win. Page-pool pages are freshly allocated non-zeroed pages, and the attacker can groom which freed pages get recycled by freeing chosen content immediately beforehand.\nPR:L - `bpf_prog_test_run()` performs no capability check whatsoever \u2014 the only gate is possession of an XDP program fd, which an unprivileged process can obtain via a delegated BPF token (`bpf_token_capable()` falls back to `ns_capable(token-\u003euserns, ...)`) or a bpffs pin, since `bpf_obj_do_get()` checks only file permissions. Loading a fresh XDP program needs CAP_BPF+CAP_NET_ADMIN, but that is a container/namespace-level privilege rather than real init-namespace root, so Low is the appropriate and higher-severity choice.\nUI:N - The attacker performs the entire sequence itself via the `bpf()` syscall; no victim action, mount, or file open is needed. The XDP frames are looped straight back into the local receive path by the test-run machinery.\nS:U - The stale-memory read, the disclosed data, and the resulting malformed skb all remain within the kernel\u0027s own security authority. No hypervisor, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - `eth_skb_pkt_type()`/`eth_type_trans()` read the contents of a previously-freed page, and the derived `skb-\u003eprotocol` and `skb-\u003epkt_type` are directly readable by an `AF_PACKET` observer on loopback, giving a repeatable, unbounded oracle over recycled kernel memory that may contain pointers, keys, or user data. Per guidance, use-after-free reads of freed memory are scored High.\nI:H - Contents of freed memory \u2014 which the attacker can influence through heap grooming \u2014 become the Ethernet header that determines `skb-\u003eprotocol` and `skb-\u003epkt_type` for a frame injected into the local network stack via `netif_receive_skb_list()`, corrupting packet classification and delivery. Per guidance, use-after-free conditions are scored High for integrity.\nA:H - The kernel dereferences memory beyond the initialized frame and hands a geometrically invalid skb (`skb-\u003elen \u003c ETH_HLEN`, `mac_header == network_header`, `mac_len == 0`) to protocol handlers that assume `eth_type_trans()` pulled the header, and on hardened/KASAN/KMSAN builds the freed-page access itself is a fatal memory-error report. Per guidance, any use-after-free is scored High for availability."

The\ncause of the issue was that eth_skb_pkt_type() accessed skb\u0027s data\nthat didn\u0027t contain an Ethernet header. This occurs when\nbpf_prog_test_run_xdp() passes an invalid value as the user_data\nargument to bpf_test_init().\n\nFix this by returning an error when user_data is less than ETH_HLEN in\nbpf_test_init(). Additionally, remove the check for \"if (user_size \u003e\nsize)\" as it is unnecessary.\n\n[1]\nBUG: KMSAN: use-after-free in eth_skb_pkt_type include/linux/etherdevice.h:627 [inline]\nBUG: KMSAN: use-after-free in eth_type_trans+0x4ee/0x980 net/ethernet/eth.c:165\n eth_skb_pkt_type include/linux/etherdevice.h:627 [inline]\n eth_type_trans+0x4ee/0x980 net/ethernet/eth.c:165\n __xdp_build_skb_from_frame+0x5a8/0xa50 net/core/xdp.c:635\n xdp_recv_frames net/bpf/test_run.c:272 [inline]\n xdp_test_run_batch net/bpf/test_run.c:361 [inline]\n bpf_test_run_xdp_live+0x2954/0x3330 net/bpf/test_run.c:390\n bpf_prog_test_run_xdp+0x148e/0x1b10 net/bpf/test_run.c:1318\n bpf_prog_test_run+0x5b7/0xa30 kernel/bpf/syscall.c:4371\n __sys_bpf+0x6a6/0xe20 kernel/bpf/syscall.c:5777\n __do_sys_bpf kernel/bpf/syscall.c:5866 [inline]\n __se_sys_bpf kernel/bpf/syscall.c:5864 [inline]\n __x64_sys_bpf+0xa4/0xf0 kernel/bpf/syscall.c:5864\n x64_sys_call+0x2ea0/0x3d90 arch/x86/include/generated/asm/syscalls_64.h:322\n do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:52 [inline]\n do_syscall_64+0xd9/0x1d0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:83\n entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f\n\nUninit was created at:\n free_pages_prepare mm/page_alloc.c:1056 [inline]\n free_unref_page+0x156/0x1320 mm/page_alloc.c:2657\n __free_pages+0xa3/0x1b0 mm/page_alloc.c:4838\n bpf_ringbuf_free kernel/bpf/ringbuf.c:226 [inline]\n ringbuf_map_free+0xff/0x1e0 kernel/bpf/ringbuf.c:235\n bpf_map_free kernel/bpf/syscall.c:838 [inline]\n bpf_map_free_deferred+0x17c/0x310 kernel/bpf/syscall.c:862\n process_one_work kernel/workqueue.c:3229 [inline]\n process_scheduled_works+0xa2b/0x1b60 kernel/workqueue.c:3310\n worker_thread+0xedf/0x1550 kernel/workqueue.c:3391\n kthread+0x535/0x6b0 kernel/kthread.c:389\n ret_from_fork+0x6e/0x90 arch/x86/kernel/process.c:147\n ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30 arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:244\n\nCPU: 1 UID: 0 PID: 17276 Comm: syz.1.16450 Not tainted 6.12.0-05490-g9bb88c659673 #8\nHardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.16.3-3.fc41 04/01/2014"

Per kernel scoring guidance, BPF syscall-reachable bugs are Local.\nAC:L - The attacker fully controls `data_size_in`, `batch_size`, `repeat` and the XDP program, so the out-of-range read is triggered deterministically on every invocation with no race to win. Page-pool pages are freshly allocated non-zeroed pages, and the attacker can groom which freed pages get recycled by freeing chosen content immediately beforehand.\nPR:L - `bpf_prog_test_run()` performs no capability check whatsoever \u2014 the only gate is possession of an XDP program fd, which an unprivileged process can obtain via a delegated BPF token (`bpf_token_capable()` falls back to `ns_capable(token-\u003euserns, ...)`) or a bpffs pin, since `bpf_obj_do_get()` checks only file permissions. Loading a fresh XDP program needs CAP_BPF+CAP_NET_ADMIN, but that is a container/namespace-level privilege rather than real init-namespace root, so Low is the appropriate and higher-severity choice.\nUI:N - The attacker performs the entire sequence itself via the `bpf()` syscall; no victim action, mount, or file open is needed. The XDP frames are looped straight back into the local receive path by the test-run machinery.\nS:U - The stale-memory read, the disclosed data, and the resulting malformed skb all remain within the kernel\u0027s own security authority. No hypervisor, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - `eth_skb_pkt_type()`/`eth_type_trans()` read the contents of a previously-freed page, and the derived `skb-\u003eprotocol` and `skb-\u003epkt_type` are directly readable by an `AF_PACKET` observer on loopback, giving a repeatable, unbounded oracle over recycled kernel memory that may contain pointers, keys, or user data. Per guidance, use-after-free reads of freed memory are scored High.\nI:H - Contents of freed memory \u2014 which the attacker can influence through heap grooming \u2014 become the Ethernet header that determines `skb-\u003eprotocol` and `skb-\u003epkt_type` for a frame injected into the local network stack via `netif_receive_skb_list()`, corrupting packet classification and delivery. Per guidance, use-after-free conditions are scored High for integrity.\nA:H - The kernel dereferences memory beyond the initialized frame and hands a geometrically invalid skb (`skb-\u003elen \u003c ETH_HLEN`, `mac_header == network_header`, `mac_len == 0`) to protocol handlers that assume `eth_type_trans()` pulled the header, and on hardened/KASAN/KMSAN builds the freed-page access itself is a fatal memory-error report. Per guidance, any use-after-free is scored High for availability."
