tipc: fix the skb_unshare() in tipc_buf_append()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
[ Upstream commit ed42989 ]

skb_unshare() drops a reference count on the old skb unconditionally,
so in the failure case, we end up freeing the skb twice here.
And because the skb is allocated in fclone and cloned by caller
tipc_msg_reassemble(), the consequence is actually freeing the
original skb too, thus triggered the UAF by syzbot.

Fix this by replacing this skb_unshare() with skb_cloned()+skb_copy().

Fixes: ff48b62 ("tipc: use skb_unshare() instead in tipc_buf_append()")
