    ping: Fix race in free in receive path · fc752f1f
    subashab@codeaurora.org 提交于
    An exception is seen in ICMP ping receive path where the skb
    destructor sock_rfree() tries to access a freed socket. This happens
    because ping_rcv() releases socket reference with sock_put() and this
    internally frees up the socket. Later icmp_rcv() will try to free the
    skb and as part of this, skb destructor is called and which leads
    to a kernel panic as the socket is freed already in ping_rcv().

    Fix this incorrect free by cloning this skb and processing this cloned
    skb instead.
