Title
bpf, sockmap: Fix memleak in tcp_bpf_sendmsg while sk msg is full
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf, sockmap: Fix memleak in tcp_bpf_sendmsg while sk msg is full If tcp_bpf_sendmsg() is running while sk msg is full. When sk_msg_alloc() returns -ENOMEM error, tcp_bpf_sendmsg() goes to wait_for_memory. If partial memory has been alloced by sk_msg_alloc(), that is, msg_tx->sg.size is greater than osize after sk_msg_alloc(), memleak occurs. To fix we use sk_msg_trim() to release the allocated memory, then goto wait for memory. Other call paths of sk_msg_alloc() have the similar issue, such as tls_sw_sendmsg(), so handle sk_msg_trim logic inside sk_msg_alloc(), as Cong Wang suggested. This issue can cause the following info: WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 7950 at net/core/stream.c:208 sk_stream_kill_queues+0xd4/0x1a0 Call Trace: <TASK> inet_csk_destroy_sock+0x55/0x110 __tcp_close+0x279/0x470 tcp_close+0x1f/0x60 inet_release+0x3f/0x80 __sock_release+0x3d/0xb0 sock_close+0x11/0x20 __fput+0x92/0x250 task_work_run+0x6a/0xa0 do_exit+0x33b/0xb60 do_group_exit+0x2f/0xa0 get_signal+0xb6/0x950 arch_do_signal_or_restart+0xac/0x2a0 exit_to_user_mode_prepare+0xa9/0x200 syscall_exit_to_user_mode+0x12/0x30 do_syscall_64+0x46/0x80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xae </TASK> WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 2094 at net/ipv4/af_inet.c:155 inet_sock_destruct+0x13c/0x260 Call Trace: <TASK> __sk_destruct+0x24/0x1f0 sk_psock_destroy+0x19b/0x1c0 process_one_work+0x1b3/0x3c0 kthread+0xe6/0x110 ret_from_fork+0x22/0x30 </TASK>

When sk_msg_alloc()\\nreturns -ENOMEM error, tcp_bpf_sendmsg() goes to wait_for_memory. If partial\\nmemory has been alloced by sk_msg_alloc(), that is, msg_tx-\u003esg.size is\\ngreater than osize after sk_msg_alloc(), memleak occurs. To fix we use\\nsk_msg_trim() to release the allocated memory, then goto wait for memory.\\n\\nOther call paths of sk_msg_alloc() have the similar issue, such as\\ntls_sw_sendmsg(), so handle sk_msg_trim logic inside sk_msg_alloc(),\\nas Cong Wang suggested.\\n\\nThis issue can cause the following info:\\nWARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 7950 at net/core/stream.c:208 sk_stream_kill_queues+0xd4/0x1a0\\nCall Trace:\\n \u003cTASK\u003e\\n inet_csk_destroy_sock+0x55/0x110\\n __tcp_close+0x279/0x470\\n tcp_close+0x1f/0x60\\n inet_release+0x3f/0x80\\n __sock_release+0x3d/0xb0\\n sock_close+0x11/0x20\\n __fput+0x92/0x250\\n task_work_run+0x6a/0xa0\\n do_exit+0x33b/0xb60\\n do_group_exit+0x2f/0xa0\\n get_signal+0xb6/0x950\\n arch_do_signal_or_restart+0xac/0x2a0\\n exit_to_user_mode_prepare+0xa9/0x200\\n syscall_exit_to_user_mode+0x12/0x30\\n do_syscall_64+0x46/0x80\\n entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xae\\n \u003c/TASK\u003e\\n\\nWARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 2094 at net/ipv4/af_inet.c:155 inet_sock_destruct+0x13c/0x260\\nCall Trace:\\n \u003cTASK\u003e\\n __sk_destruct+0x24/0x1f0\\n sk_psock_destroy+0x19b/0x1c0\\n process_one_work+0x1b3/0x3c0\\n kthread+0xe6/0x110\\n ret_from_fork+0x22/0x30\\n \u003c/TASK\u003e\"}], \"cpeApplicability\": [{\"nodes\": [{\"negate\": false, \"cpeMatch\": [{\"criteria\": \"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\", \"vulnerable\": true, \"versionEndExcluding\": \"5.4.189\", \"versionStartIncluding\": \"4.20\"}, {\"criteria\": \"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\", \"vulnerable\": true, \"versionEndExcluding\": \"5.10.110\", \"versionStartIncluding\": \"4.20\"}, {\"criteria\": \"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\", \"vulnerable\": true, \"versionEndExcluding\": \"5.15.33\", \"versionStartIncluding\": \"4.20\"}, {\"criteria\": \"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\", \"vulnerable\": true, \"versionEndExcluding\": \"5.16.19\", \"versionStartIncluding\": \"4.20\"}, {\"criteria\": \"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\", \"vulnerable\": true, \"versionEndExcluding\": \"5.17.2\", \"versionStartIncluding\": \"4.20\"}, {\"criteria\": \"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\", \"vulnerable\": true, \"versionEndExcluding\": \"5.18\", \"versionStartIncluding\": \"4.20\"}], \"operator\": \"OR\"}]}], \"providerMetadata\": {\"orgId\": \"416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67\", \"shortName\": \"Linux\", \"dateUpdated\": \"2026-05-11T18:55:15.329Z\"}}}",
