The problem is caused +by the code checking if the socket is bound in rds_sendmsg(), which checks +the rs_bound_addr field without taking a lock on the socket. This opens a +race where rs_bound_addr is temporarily set but where the transport is not +in rds_bind(), leading to a NULL pointer dereference when trying to +dereference 'trans' in __rds_conn_create(). + +Vegard wrote a reproducer for this issue, so kindly ask him to share if +you're interested. + +I cannot reproduce the NULL pointer dereference using Vegard's reproducer +with this patch, whereas I could without. + +Complete earlier incomplete fix to CVE-2015-6937: + + 74e98eb08588 ("RDS: verify the underlying transport exists before creating a connection") + +Signed-off-by: Quentin Casasnovas <quentin.casasnovas@oracle.com> +Reviewed-by: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@oracle.com> +Reviewed-by: Sasha Levin <sasha.levin@oracle.com> +Cc: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@oracle.com> +Cc: Sasha Levin <sasha.levin@oracle.com> +Cc: Chien Yen <chien.yen@oracle.com> +Cc: Santosh Shilimkar <santosh.shilimkar@oracle.com> +Cc: David S.
