Subject: net: Fix skb_set_peeked use-after-free bug
From: Herbert Xu <[email protected]>
[ Upstream commit a0a2a6602496a45ae838a96db8b8173794b5d398 ]
The commit 738ac1ebb96d02e0d23bc320302a6ea94c612dec ("net: Clone
skb before setting peeked flag") introduced a use-after-free bug
in skb_recv_datagram. This is because skb_set_peeked may create
a new skb and free the existing one. As it stands the caller will
continue to use the old freed skb.
This patch fixes it by making skb_set_peeked return the new skb
(or the old one if unchanged).
