KMSAN sysbot detected a read access to an untinitialized value in the headroom of an outgoing CAN related sk_buff. When using CAN sockets this area is filled appropriately - but when using a packet socket this initialization is missing. The problematic read access occurs in the CAN receive path which can only be triggered when the sk_buff is sent through a (virtual) CAN interface. So we check in the sending path whether we need to perform the missing initializations. Fixes: d3b58c47d330d ("can: replace timestamp as unique skb attribute") Reported-by: syzbot+b02ff0707a97e4e79ebb@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Signed-off-by: Oliver Hartkopp <socketcan@hartkopp.net> Tested-by: Oliver Hartkopp <socketcan@hartkopp.net> Cc: linux-stable <stable@vger.kernel.org> # >= v4.1 Signed-off-by: Marc Kleine-Budde <mkl@pengutronix.de>
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
