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

net/sched: cls_route: fix fastmap use-after-free on filter

The route4 classifier maintains a 16-slot fastmap cache that stores raw struct route4_filter pointers indexed by (id, iif). The reader (route4_classify) populates this cache via route4_set_fastmap() for every classified packet that hits a filter. The writer (route4_delete, route4_change) clears the cache via route4_reset_fastmap() before RCU-deferred kfree of the filter.

This creates a UAF race:

  • Reader walks the RCU-protected bucket chain, finds filter f
  • Writer unlinks f, calls route4_reset_fastmap(), then tcf_queue_work()
  • Reader calls route4_set_fastmap() and writes f into the cache
*after* the writer's reset, caching a pointer about to be freed
  • After the RCU grace period, kfree(f) executes
  • Next classified packet on the same (id, iif) tuple hits the stale
fastmap entry and reads f->res from freed memory

Reproduced with an mdelay(100) accelerator in route4_set_fastmap() and a concurrent add/delete stress test (provided by both zdi and Santosh). Both triggered KASAN slab-use-after-free reports in the route4 fastmap paths.

Fix: Introduce a per-filter boolean dying flag to suppress stale fastmap republishing by in-flight readers.
