sctp: check asoc strreset_chunk in sctp_generate_reconf_event
A null pointer reference issue can be triggered when the response of a stream reconf request arrives after the timer is triggered, such as: send Incoming SSN Reset Request ---> CPU0: reconf timer is triggered, go to the handler code before hold sk lock <--- reply with Outgoing SSN Reset Request CPU1: process Outgoing SSN Reset Request, and set asoc->strreset_chunk to NULL CPU0: continue the handler code, hold sk lock, and try to hold asoc->strreset_chunk, crash! In Ying Xu's testing, the call trace is: [ ] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000010 [ ] RIP: 0010:sctp_chunk_hold+0xe/0x40 [sctp] [ ] Call Trace: [ ] <IRQ> [ ] sctp_sf_send_reconf+0x2c/0x100 [sctp] [ ] sctp_do_sm+0xa4/0x220 [sctp] [ ] sctp_generate_reconf_event+0xbd/0xe0 [sctp] [ ] call_timer_fn+0x26/0x130 This patch is to fix it by returning from the timer handler if asoc strreset_chunk is already set to NULL.
