Frequently Asked Questions

1

Which systems are exposed to this issue?

Systems using the Linux kernel are affected when they use a BPF stream_verdict program that redirects an skb back to the same socket with BPF_F_INGRESS. The described path specifically involves sockmap and TCP socket receive handling.

2

What must occur to trigger the problem?

A BPF stream_verdict program must perform a self-redirect of an skb to the same socket using BPF_F_INGRESS. In that path, TCP copied_seq accounting is advanced both when the skb is consumed and again when it is read from the psock ingress queue.

3

How could an administrator recognize that the issue has been triggered?

The kernel may emit warnings from net/ipv4/tcp.c during recvmsg processing, including messages such as "TCP recvmsg seq # bug 2" and "cleanup rbuf bug." The associated call traces include tcp_recvmsg_locked, tcp_recvmsg, and tcp_bpf_recvmsg_parser-related receive processing.
