Subject: CVE-2024-26865: rds: tcp: Fix use-after-free of net in reqsk_timer_handler().

Description
===========

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

rds: tcp: Fix use-after-free of net in reqsk_timer_handler().

syzkaller reported a warning of netns tracker [0] followed by KASAN
splat [1] and another ref tracker warning [1].

syzkaller could not find a repro, but in the log, the only suspicious
sequence was as follows:

  18:26:22 executing program 1:
  r0 = socket$inet6_mptcp(0xa, 0x1, 0x106)
  ...
  connect$inet6(r0, &(0x7f0000000080)={0xa, 0x4001, 0x0, @loopback}, 0x1c) (async)

The notable thing here is 0x4001 in connect(), which is RDS_TCP_PORT.

So, the scenario would be:

  1. unshare(CLONE_NEWNET) creates a per netns tcp listener in
      rds_tcp_listen_init().
  2. syz-executor connect()s to it and creates a reqsk.
  3. syz-executor exit()s immediately.
  4. netns is dismantled.  [0]
  5. reqsk timer is fired, and UAF happens while freeing reqsk.  [1]
  6. listener is freed after RCU grace period.  [2]

Basically, reqsk assumes that the listener guarantees netns safety
until all reqsk timers are expired by holding the listener's refcount.
However, this was not the case for kernel sockets.

Commit 740ea3c4a0b2 ("tcp: Clean up kernel listener's reqsk in
inet_twsk_purge()") fixed this issue only for per-netns ehash.

Let's apply the same fix for the global ehash.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
