Affected: Linux, Siemens RUGGEDCOM RST2428P

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

tcp_bpf: Call sk_msg_free() when tcp_bpf_send_verdict() fails to allocate psock->cork.

syzbot reported the splat below. [0]

The repro does the following:

1. Load a sk_msg prog that calls bpf_msg_cork_bytes(msg, cork_bytes) 2. Attach the prog to a SOCKMAP 3. Add a socket to the SOCKMAP 4. Activate fault injection 5. Send data less than cork_bytes

At 5., the data is carried over to the next sendmsg() as it is smaller than the cork_bytes specified by bpf_msg_cork_bytes().

Then, tcp_bpf_send_verdict() tries to allocate psock->cork to hold the data, but this fails silently due to fault injection + __GFP_NOWARN.

If the allocation fails, we need to revert the sk->sk_forward_alloc change done by sk_msg_alloc().

Let's call sk_msg_free() when tcp_bpf_send_verdict fails to allocate psock->cork.

The "*copied" also needs to be updated such that a proper error can be returned to the caller, sendmsg. It fails to allocate psock->cork. Nothing has been corked so far, so this patch simply sets "*copied" to 0.
