An\nunprivileged TFO client (sendmsg(MSG_FASTOPEN)) can arm the hint with\nan attacker-supplied ICMP fragmentation-needed message, after which a\nsimultaneous open frees the armed SYN skb:\n\n BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in tcp_mark_skb_lost (net/ipv4/tcp_input.c:1316)\n Read of size 4 at addr ffff88800604d928 by task swapper/1/0\n Call Trace:\n tcp_mark_skb_lost (net/ipv4/tcp_input.c:1316)\n tcp_simple_retransmit (net/ipv4/tcp_input.c:3158)\n tcp_v4_err (net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c:587)\n\nSync the hint to the copy."

"value": "AV:N - A malicious IPv4 peer supplies fragmentation-needed ICMP messages quoting the client's TFO SYN and an ACK-less crossed TCP SYN; ip_rcv() dispatches these through tcp_v4_err() and tcp_rcv_state_process() to the patched tcp_send_synack().\nAC:L - After the victim's TFO send, the peer controls packet ordering: ICMP makes tcp_simple_retransmit() cache and clone the SYN, then the crossed SYN makes tcp_send_synack() free it; a later PMTU event dereferences the stale hint without requiring a race or external failure.\nPR:N - The ordinary TCP and ICMP paths require only a matching tuple and quoted sequence, not authentication or target privileges; a peer that received the TFO SYN knows the values checked by tcp_v4_err() and the TCP socket lookup.\nUI:R - A victim-side process must issue sendmsg(MSG_FASTOPEN) with data and a usable cookie or no-cookie mode to establish tp->syn_data in TCP_SYN_SENT; remote packets alone cannot construct this vulnerable retransmit queue state.\nS:U - The freed skb, retransmit tree, and subsequent stale accesses all belong to the same host kernel TCP security authority; tcp_send_synack() does not cross a VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary.\nC:H - retransmit_skb_hint retains a freed skbuff_fclone_cache address, and tcp_verify_retransmit_hint() reads its TCP control block while tcp_xmit_retransmit_queue() follows its rbnode links, permitting attacker-influenced stale-object reads after slab reuse.\nI:H - tcp_xmit_retransmit_queue() can treat the reclaimed object as a live skb and pass it into retransmission code that modifies skb control and header state; attacker-shaped reuse of the stale rbnode and skb fields makes this UAF exploitable for kernel memory corruption.\nA:H - The demonstrated stale TCP_SKB_CB read already triggers KASAN in tcp_mark_skb_lost(), while using the freed object as an rbtree-walk root can dereference invalid links and cause a kernel oops or panic."
