    <title>CVE-2026-53078 — bpf: Fix same-register dst/src OOB read and pointer leak in sock_ops</title>

      <div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><p><strong>Affected:</strong> Linux</p>
<p>In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:</p>
<p>bpf: Fix same-register dst/src OOB read and pointer leak in sock_ops</p>
<p>When a BPF sock_ops program accesses ctx fields with dst_reg == src_reg,
the SOCK_OPS_GET_SK() and SOCK_OPS_GET_FIELD() macros fail to zero the
destination register in the !fullsock / !locked_tcp_sock path.</p>
<p>Both macros borrow a temporary register to check is_fullsock /
is_locked_tcp_sock when dst_reg == src_reg, because dst_reg holds the
ctx pointer. When the check is false (e.g., TCP_NEW_SYN_RECV state with
a request_sock), dst_reg should be zeroed but is not, leaving the stale
ctx pointer:</p>
<p>- SOCK_OPS_GET_SK: dst_reg retains the ctx pointer, passes NULL checks
   as PTR_TO_SOCKET_OR_NULL, and can be used as a bogus socket pointer,
   leading to stack-out-of-bounds access in helpers like
   bpf_skc_to_tcp6_sock().</p>
<p>- SOCK_OPS_GET_FIELD: dst_reg retains the ctx pointer which the
   verifier believes is a SCALAR_VALUE, leaking a kernel pointer.</p>
<p>Fix both macros by:
 - Changing JMP_A(1) to JMP_A(2) in the fullsock path to skip the
   added instruction.
 - Adding BPF_MOV64_IMM(si-&gt;dst_reg, 0) after the temp register
   restore in the !fullsock path, placed after the restore because
   dst_reg == src_reg means we need src_reg intact to read ctx-&gt;temp.</p></div>
