Vladislav Efanov 1abb7b04ec udp6: Fix race condition in udp6_sendmsg & connect 
[ Upstream commit 448a5ce112 ]

Syzkaller got the following report:
BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in sk_setup_caps+0x621/0x690 net/core/sock.c:2018
Read of size 8 at addr ffff888027f82780 by task syz-executor276/3255

The function sk_setup_caps (called by ip6_sk_dst_store_flow->
ip6_dst_store) referenced already freed memory as this memory was
freed by parallel task in udpv6_sendmsg->ip6_sk_dst_lookup_flow->
sk_dst_check.

          task1 (connect)              task2 (udp6_sendmsg)
        sk_setup_caps->sk_dst_set |
                                  |  sk_dst_check->
                                  |      sk_dst_set
                                  |      dst_release
        sk_setup_caps references  |
        to already freed dst_entry|

The reason for this race condition is: sk_setup_caps() keeps using
the dst after transferring the ownership to the dst cache.

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.
