In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smc: Fix various oops due to inet_sock type confusion.
syzbot reported weird splats [0][1] in cipso_v4_sock_setattr() while freeing inet_sk(sk)->inet_opt.
The address was freed multiple times even though it was read-only memory.
cipso_v4_sock_setattr() did nothing wrong, and the root cause was type confusion.
The cited commit made it possible to create smc_sock as an INET socket.
The issue is that struct smc_sock does not have struct inet_sock as the first member but hijacks AF_INET and AF_INET6 sk_family, which confuses various places.
In this case, inet_sock.inet_opt was actually smc_sock.clcsk_data_ready(), which is an address of a function in the text segment.
$ pahole -C inet_sock vmlinux struct inet_sock { ... struct ip_options_rcu * inet_opt; /* 784 8 */
