Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xsk: Fix fragment node deletion to prevent buffer leak
After commit b692bf9a7543 ("xsk: Get rid of xdp_buff_xsk::xskb_list_node"),
the list_node field is reused for both the xskb pool list and the buffer
free list, this causes a buffer leak as described below.
xp_free() checks if a buffer is already on the free list using
list_empty(&xskb->list_node). When list_del() is used to remove a node
from the xskb pool list, it doesn't reinitialize the node pointers.
This means list_empty() will return false even after the node has been
removed, causing xp_free() to incorrectly skip adding the buffer to the
free list.
Fix this by using list_del_init() instead of list_del() in all fragment
handling paths, this ensures the list node is reinitialized after removal,
allowing the list_empty() to work correctly.
