"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nkcm: fix zero-frag skb in frag_list on partial sendmsg error\n\nSyzkaller reported a warning in kcm_write_msgs() when processing a\nmessage with a zero-fragment skb in the frag_list.\n\nWhen kcm_sendmsg() fills MAX_SKB_FRAGS fragments in the current skb,\nit allocates a new skb (tskb) and links it into the frag_list before\ncopying data. If the copy subsequently fails (e.g. -EFAULT from\nuser memory), tskb remains in the frag_list with zero fragments:\n\n head skb (msg being assembled, NOT yet in sk_write_queue)\n +-----------+\n | frags[17] | (MAX_SKB_FRAGS, all filled with data)\n | frag_list-+--> tskb\n +-----------+ +----------+\n | frags[0] | (empty! copy failed before filling)\n +----------+\n\nFor SOCK_SEQPACKET with partial data already copied, the error path\nsaves this message via partial_message for later completion. For\nSOCK_SEQPACKET, sock_write_iter() automatically sets MSG_EOR, so a\nsubsequent zero-length write(fd, NULL, 0) completes the message and\nqueues it to sk_write_queue. kcm_write_msgs() then walks the\nfrag_list and hits:\n\n WARN_ON(!skb_shinfo(skb)->nr_frags)\n\nTCP has a similar pattern where skbs are enqueued before data copy\nand cleaned up on failure via tcp_remove_empty_skb(). KCM was\nmissing the equivalent cleanup.\n\nFix this by tracking the predecessor skb (frag_prev) when allocating\na new frag_list entry. On error, if the tail skb has zero frags,\nuse frag_prev to unlink and free it in O(1) without walking the\nsingly-linked frag_list. frag_prev is safe to dereference because\nthe entire message chain is only held locally (or in kcm->seq_skb)\nand is not added to sk_write_queue until MSG_EOR, so the send path\ncannot free it underneath us.\n\nAlso change the WARN_ON to WARN_ON_ONCE to avoid flooding the log\nif the condition is somehow hit repeatedly.\n\nThere are currently no KCM selftests in the kernel tree; a simple\nreproducer is available at [1].\n\n[1] https://gist.github.com/mrpre/a94d431c757e8d6f168f4dd1a3749daa"
