Title
net: af_can: do not leave a dangling sk pointer in can_create()
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: af_can: do not leave a dangling sk pointer in can_create() On error can_create() frees the allocated sk object, but sock_init_data() has already attached it to the provided sock object. This will leave a dangling sk pointer in the sock object and may cause use-after-free later.

Consistent with the Bluetooth and af_packet siblings in the same series, which were also scored AV:L because the flaw is in socket setup rather than frame processing.\nAC:L - The only failing `-\u003einit` is `raw_init()`\u0027s `alloc_percpu(struct uniqframe)` returning `-ENOMEM`, and an unprivileged local attacker can drive the percpu allocator into failure by spraying percpu-consuming objects (including CAN raw sockets themselves) before retrying `socket()` in a tight loop. This is the same attacker-induced-ENOMEM shape as the af_packet sibling CVE-2024-56606, which was scored AC:L.\nPR:L - `can_create()` performs no `capable()` check at all \u2014 unlike af_packet there is no `CAP_NET_RAW` gate \u2014 and there is no `net_eq(net, \u0026init_net)` restriction, so any unprivileged local user, including inside an unprivileged user namespace, can reach it. Where `CONFIG_CAN` is modular, `MODULE_ALIAS_NETPROTO(PF_CAN)` lets the unprivileged `socket()` call autoload the module itself.\nUI:N - The attacker performs the entire sequence \u2014 memory pressure plus repeated `socket()` calls \u2014 from its own process. No victim action, mount, or file open is involved.\nS:U - The freed `struct raw_sock`/`struct sock` and the stale `sock-\u003esk` reference both live entirely within the kernel\u0027s own security authority. No VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - Per the use-after-free rubric, the stale `sock-\u003esk` pointing at a freed `raw_sock` in the general kmalloc caches lets an attacker reclaim the slab and read back attacker-shaped or leftover kernel data; the demonstrated consumer for this exact bug class (CVE-2024-40954) is a KASAN-confirmed slab-use-after-free *read* of the freed sock via `__sock_gen_cookie()`.\nI:H - The same dangling reference permits heap spraying of the reclaimed slot, giving control over function-pointer-bearing fields of `struct sock` (`sk_prot`, `sk_destruct`, `sk_wq`) and therefore a control-flow-hijack primitive rather than mere data corruption.\nA:H - Any dereference of the freed `sock-\u003esk` before `iput()` faults or corrupts kernel state, producing an oops or panic; the rubric treats all use-after-free conditions as high availability impact even when only partially exploited."
