How to reproduce ? On the buggy host (host A) * ip addr add 1.2.3.4/24 dev eth0 On a remote host (host B) * ip addr add 1.2.3.5/24 dev eth0 * iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -s 1.2.3.4 -j DROP * ssh 1.2.3.4 On host A: * netstat -ta or cat /proc/net/tcp This bug happens when reading /proc/net/tcp[6] when there is a req_sock at the SYN_RECV state. When a SYN is received the minisock is created and the sk field is set to NULL. In the listening_get_next function, we try to look at the field req->sk->sk_net. When looking at how to fix this bug, I noticed that is useless to do the check for the minisock belonging to the namespace. A minisock belongs to a listen point and this one is per namespace, so when browsing the minisock they are always per namespace.
