[PATCH net] scm: fix negative fds with SO_PASSPIDFD
Posted by Stas Sergeev 5 days, 14 hours ago
pidfd_prepare() can return negative values as an error codes.
But scm_pidfd_recv() didn't check for that condition.
As the result, it is possible to create the race that leads to
the negative fds. The race happens if the peer process sends
something to SO_PASSPIDFD-enabled recipient, and quickly exits.
pidfd_prepare() has this code:

    if (!pid || !pid_has_task(pid, thread ? PIDTYPE_PID : PIDTYPE_TGID))
            return -EINVAL;

So if you exit quickly enough, you can hit that EINVAL.
Getting the fd=-22 is very weird, if not exploitable.

This patch adds the missing check and sets MSG_CTRUNC on error.
Recipient can now detect an error by checking this flag.
