Linux Linux Kernel vulnerabilities

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: track changes_pkt_data property for global functions When processing calls to certain helpers, verifier invalidates all packet pointers in a current state. For example, consider the following program: __attribute__((__noinline__)) long skb_pull_data(struct __sk_buff *sk, __u32 len) { return bpf_skb_pull_data(sk, len); } SEC("tc") int test_invalidate_checks(struct __sk_buff *sk) { int *p = (void *)(long)sk->data; if ((void *)(p + 1) > (void *)(long)sk->data_end) return TCX_DROP; skb_pull_data(sk, 0); *p = 42; return TCX_PASS; } After a call to bpf_skb_pull_data() the pointer 'p' can't be used safely. See function filter.c:bpf_helper_changes_pkt_data() for a list of such helpers. At the moment verifier invalidates packet pointers when processing helper function calls, and does not traverse global sub-programs when processing calls to global sub-programs. This means that calls to helpers done from global sub-programs do not invalidate pointers in the caller state. E.g. the program above is unsafe, but is not rejected by verifier. This commit fixes the omission by computing field bpf_subprog_info->changes_pkt_data for each sub-program before main verification pass. changes_pkt_data should be set if: - subprogram calls helper for which bpf_helper_changes_pkt_data returns true; - subprogram calls a global function, for which bpf_subprog_info->changes_pkt_data should be set. The verifier.c:check_cfg() pass is modified to compute this information. The commit relies on depth first instruction traversal done by check_cfg() and absence of recursive function calls: - check_cfg() would eventually visit every call to subprogram S in a state when S is fully explored; - when S is fully explored: - every direct helper call within S is explored (and thus changes_pkt_data is set if needed); - every call to subprogram S1 called by S was visited with S1 fully explored (and thus S inherits changes_pkt_data from S1). The downside of such approach is that dead code elimination is not taken into account: if a helper call inside global function is dead because of current configuration, verifier would conservatively assume that the call occurs for the purpose of the changes_pkt_data computation.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/smc: fix NULL sndbuf_desc in smc_cdc_tx_handler() When performing a stress test on SMC-R by rmmod mlx5_ib driver during the wrk/nginx test, we found that there is a probability of triggering a panic while terminating all link groups. This issue dues to the race between smc_smcr_terminate_all() and smc_buf_create(). smc_smcr_terminate_all smc_buf_create /* init */ conn->sndbuf_desc = NULL; ... __smc_lgr_terminate smc_conn_kill smc_close_abort smc_cdc_get_slot_and_msg_send __softirqentry_text_start smc_wr_tx_process_cqe smc_cdc_tx_handler READ(conn->sndbuf_desc->len); /* panic dues to NULL sndbuf_desc */ conn->sndbuf_desc = xxx; This patch tries to fix the issue by always to check the sndbuf_desc before send any cdc msg, to make sure that no null pointer is seen during cqe processing.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ice: xsk: disable txq irq before flushing hw ice_qp_dis() intends to stop a given queue pair that is a target of xsk pool attach/detach. One of the steps is to disable interrupts on these queues. It currently is broken in a way that txq irq is turned off *after* HW flush which in turn takes no effect. ice_qp_dis(): -> ice_qvec_dis_irq() --> disable rxq irq --> flush hw -> ice_vsi_stop_tx_ring() -->disable txq irq Below splat can be triggered by following steps: - start xdpsock WITHOUT loading xdp prog - run xdp_rxq_info with XDP_TX action on this interface - start traffic - terminate xdpsock [ 256.312485] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000018 [ 256.319560] #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode [ 256.324775] #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page [ 256.329994] PGD 0 P4D 0 [ 256.332574] Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP NOPTI [ 256.337006] CPU: 3 PID: 32 Comm: ksoftirqd/3 Tainted: G OE 6.2.0-rc5+ #51 [ 256.345218] Hardware name: Intel Corporation S2600WFT/S2600WFT, BIOS SE5C620.86B.02.01.0008.031920191559 03/19/2019 [ 256.355807] RIP: 0010:ice_clean_rx_irq_zc+0x9c/0x7d0 [ice] [ 256.361423] Code: b7 8f 8a 00 00 00 66 39 ca 0f 84 f1 04 00 00 49 8b 47 40 4c 8b 24 d0 41 0f b7 45 04 66 25 ff 3f 66 89 04 24 0f 84 85 02 00 00 <49> 8b 44 24 18 0f b7 14 24 48 05 00 01 00 00 49 89 04 24 49 89 44 [ 256.380463] RSP: 0018:ffffc900088bfd20 EFLAGS: 00010206 [ 256.385765] RAX: 000000000000003c RBX: 0000000000000035 RCX: 000000000000067f [ 256.393012] RDX: 0000000000000775 RSI: 0000000000000000 RDI: ffff8881deb3ac80 [ 256.400256] RBP: 000000000000003c R08: ffff889847982710 R09: 0000000000010000 [ 256.407500] R10: ffffffff82c060c0 R11: 0000000000000004 R12: 0000000000000000 [ 256.414746] R13: ffff88811165eea0 R14: ffffc9000d255000 R15: ffff888119b37600 [ 256.421990] FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff8897e0cc0000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 [ 256.430207] CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 [ 256.436036] CR2: 0000000000000018 CR3: 0000000005c0a006 CR4: 00000000007706e0 [ 256.443283] DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 [ 256.450527] DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000fffe0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 [ 256.457770] PKRU: 55555554 [ 256.460529] Call Trace: [ 256.463015] <TASK> [ 256.465157] ? ice_xmit_zc+0x6e/0x150 [ice] [ 256.469437] ice_napi_poll+0x46d/0x680 [ice] [ 256.473815] ? _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x1b/0x40 [ 256.478863] __napi_poll+0x29/0x160 [ 256.482409] net_rx_action+0x136/0x260 [ 256.486222] __do_softirq+0xe8/0x2e5 [ 256.489853] ? smpboot_thread_fn+0x2c/0x270 [ 256.494108] run_ksoftirqd+0x2a/0x50 [ 256.497747] smpboot_thread_fn+0x1c1/0x270 [ 256.501907] ? __pfx_smpboot_thread_fn+0x10/0x10 [ 256.506594] kthread+0xea/0x120 [ 256.509785] ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10 [ 256.513597] ret_from_fork+0x29/0x50 [ 256.517238] </TASK> In fact, irqs were not disabled and napi managed to be scheduled and run while xsk_pool pointer was still valid, but SW ring of xdp_buff pointers was already freed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/i915/active: Fix misuse of non-idle barriers as fence trackers Users reported oopses on list corruptions when using i915 perf with a number of concurrently running graphics applications. Root cause analysis pointed at an issue in barrier processing code -- a race among perf open / close replacing active barriers with perf requests on kernel context and concurrent barrier preallocate / acquire operations performed during user context first pin / last unpin. When adding a request to a composite tracker, we try to reuse an existing fence tracker, already allocated and registered with that composite. The tracker we obtain may already track another fence, may be an idle barrier, or an active barrier. If the tracker we get occurs a non-idle barrier then we try to delete that barrier from a list of barrier tasks it belongs to. However, while doing that we don't respect return value from a function that performs the barrier deletion. Should the deletion ever fail, we would end up reusing the tracker still registered as a barrier task. Since the same structure field is reused with both fence callback lists and barrier tasks list, list corruptions would likely occur. Barriers are now deleted from a barrier tasks list by temporarily removing the list content, traversing that content with skip over the node to be deleted, then populating the list back with the modified content. Should that intentionally racy concurrent deletion attempts be not serialized, one or more of those may fail because of the list being temporary empty. Related code that ignores the results of barrier deletion was initially introduced in v5.4 by commit d8af05ff38ae ("drm/i915: Allow sharing the idle-barrier from other kernel requests"). However, all users of the barrier deletion routine were apparently serialized at that time, then the issue didn't exhibit itself. Results of git bisect with help of a newly developed igt@gem_barrier_race@remote-request IGT test indicate that list corruptions might start to appear after commit 311770173fac ("drm/i915/gt: Schedule request retirement when timeline idles"), introduced in v5.5. Respect results of barrier deletion attempts -- mark the barrier as idle only if successfully deleted from the list. Then, before proceeding with setting our fence as the one currently tracked, make sure that the tracker we've got is not a non-idle barrier. If that check fails then don't use that tracker but go back and try to acquire a new, usable one. v3: use unlikely() to document what outcome we expect (Andi), - fix bad grammar in commit description. v2: no code changes, - blame commit 311770173fac ("drm/i915/gt: Schedule request retirement when timeline idles"), v5.5, not commit d8af05ff38ae ("drm/i915: Allow sharing the idle-barrier from other kernel requests"), v5.4, - reword commit description.

This leaves wild ops in subsystem linkedlist and when another module tries to call register_pernet_operations() it triggers page fault: BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: fffffbfff81b964c RIP: 0010:register_pernet_operations+0x1b9/0x5f0 Call Trace: <TASK> register_pernet_subsys+0x29/0x40 ebtables_init+0x58/0x1000 [ebtables] ...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: octeontx2-pf: Fix SQE threshold checking Current way of checking available SQE count which is based on HW updated SQB count could result in driver submitting an SQE even before CQE for the previously transmitted SQE at the same index is processed in NAPI resulting losing SKB pointers, hence a leak. Fix this by checking a consumer index which is updated once CQE is processed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ethtool: cmis_cdb: use correct rpl size in ethtool_cmis_module_poll() rpl is passed as a pointer to ethtool_cmis_module_poll(), so the correct size of rpl is sizeof(*rpl) which should be just 1 byte. Using the pointer size instead can cause stack corruption: Kernel panic - not syncing: stack-protector: Kernel stack is corrupted in: ethtool_cmis_wait_for_cond+0xf4/0x100 CPU: 72 UID: 0 PID: 4440 Comm: kworker/72:2 Kdump: loaded Tainted: G OE 6.11.0 #24 Tainted: [O]=OOT_MODULE, [E]=UNSIGNED_MODULE Hardware name: Dell Inc.
