Vulnerabilidades do Linux Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: mana: Validate the packet length reported by the NIC Validate the packet length reported in the RX CQE before passing it to skb processing. The CQE is supplied by the NIC device and should not be blindly trusted.

No Linux kernel, a seguinte vulnerabilidade foi corrigida: net: mana: Sincronizar fragmentos RX do page pool para a CPU O MANA aloca buffers RX a partir de fragmentos do page pool quando frag_count é maior que 1. Nesse caso, os buffers permanecem mapeados para DMA pelo page pool e o caminho de conclusão de RX não chama dma_unmap_single(). Como resultado, falta a sincronização implícita para a CPU que normalmente é feita por dma_unmap_single() antes de os dados do pacote serem passados para a pilha de rede. Isso quebra o RX em configurações que exigem sincronização explícita de DMA, por exemplo quando inicializadas com swiotlb=force. Corrija isso registrando a página do page pool e o deslocamento de sincronização DMA quando o buffer RX é alocado, e sincronizando o intervalo do pacote recebido para acesso da CPU antes de entregar o buffer RX à pilha.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: gve: fix header buffer corruption with header-split and HW-GRO The DQO RX datapath programs a per-buffer-queue-descriptor header_buf_addr at post time and reads the split header back at completion time. Both the post and the read currently index the header buffer by queue position rather than by the buffer's identity: - post (gve_rx_post_buffers_dqo): header_buf_addr is computed from bufq->tail - read (gve_rx_dqo): the header is read from desc_idx (the completion queue head index) This relies on the buffer-queue index and the completion-queue index being equal for the start of every packet, i.e. on the device consuming posted buffers and returning completions in the exact same order. That assumption does not hold once HW-GRO is enabled with multiple flows: coalesced segments are accepted and completed in an order that may differ from the order buffers were posted, and segments from different flows may interleave. That results in two problems: 1. Wrong header slot on read. Because the read offset is derived from the completion index (desc_idx) while the device wrote the header to the address programmed for the buffer's buf_id, the driver can copy a header belonging to a different packet. This shows up as throughput drop (about 30% drop and large numbers of TCP retransmissions) with header-split and HW-GRO both enabled and many streams. 2. Header buffer reused while still owned by the device. The driver advances bufq->head by one per completion and re-posts buffers based on that. Arrival of N RX completions only guarantees that at least N RX buffer descriptors have been read by the device. It does not guarantee that the device has relinquished the ownership of all the buffers corresponding to those N descriptors. With out-of-order completions (e.g. the completion for a packet copied into buffer N arrives before the completion for a packet copied into buffer N-1), the driver can re-post and overwrite a header buffer that the device is still going to write into, corrupting the header of a packet whose completion has not yet been processed. Fix both issues by indexing the header buffer by buf_id on both the post and read paths. Reading from buf_id's slot is therefore always correct regardless of completion ordering (fixes problem 1). Indexing by buf_id also ties each header slot to the lifetime of its buffer state. A buffer state is only returned to the free/recycle lists when its own completion (buf_id) is processed, so its header slot can only be re-posted after the device is done with it. This makes header slot reuse safe under out-of-order completions (fixes problem 2). Allocate (gve_rx_alloc_hdr_bufs) and free (gve_rx_free_hdr_bufs) the header buffers based on num_buf_states to match the buf_id indexing.
