Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In 2024
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: fix kernel bug due to missing clearing of checked flag
Syzbot reported that in directory operations after nilfs2 detects
filesystem corruption and degrades to read-only,
__block_write_begin_int(), which is called to prepare block writes, may
fail the BUG_ON check for accesses exceeding the folio/page size,
triggering a kernel bug.
This was found to be because the "checked" flag of a page/folio was not
cleared when it was discarded by nilfs2's own routine, which causes the
sanity check of directory entries to be skipped when the directory
page/folio is reloaded. So, fix that.
This was necessary when the use of nilfs2's own page discard routine was
applied to more than just metadata files.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix use-after-free of block device file in __btrfs_free_extra_devids()
Mounting btrfs from two images (which have the same one fsid and two
different dev_uuids) in certain executing order may trigger an UAF for
variable 'device->bdev_file' in __btrfs_free_extra_devids(). And
following are the details:
1. Attach image_1 to loop0, attach image_2 to loop1, and scan btrfs
devices by ioctl(BTRFS_IOC_SCAN_DEV):
/ btrfs_device_1 → loop0
fs_device
\ btrfs_device_2 → loop1
2. mount /dev/loop0 /mnt
btrfs_open_devices
btrfs_device_1->bdev_file = btrfs_get_bdev_and_sb(loop0)
btrfs_device_2->bdev_file = btrfs_get_bdev_and_sb(loop1)
btrfs_fill_super
open_ctree
fail: btrfs_close_devices // -ENOMEM
btrfs_close_bdev(btrfs_device_1)
fput(btrfs_device_1->bdev_file)
// btrfs_device_1->bdev_file is freed
btrfs_close_bdev(btrfs_device_2)
fput(btrfs_device_2->bdev_file)
3. mount /dev/loop1 /mnt
btrfs_open_devices
btrfs_get_bdev_and_sb(&bdev_file)
// EIO, btrfs_device_1->bdev_file is not assigned,
// which points to a freed memory area
btrfs_device_2->bdev_file = btrfs_get_bdev_and_sb(loop1)
btrfs_fill_super
open_ctree
btrfs_free_extra_devids
if (btrfs_device_1->bdev_file)
fput(btrfs_device_1->bdev_file) // UAF !
Fix it by setting 'device->bdev_file' as 'NULL' after closing the
btrfs_device in btrfs_close_one_device().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: pass u64 to ocfs2_truncate_inline maybe overflow
Syzbot reported a kernel BUG in ocfs2_truncate_inline. There are two
reasons for this: first, the parameter value passed is greater than
ocfs2_max_inline_data_with_xattr, second, the start and end parameters of
ocfs2_truncate_inline are "unsigned int".
So, we need to add a sanity check for byte_start and byte_len right before
ocfs2_truncate_inline() in ocfs2_remove_inode_range(), if they are greater
than ocfs2_max_inline_data_with_xattr return -EINVAL.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fork: do not invoke uffd on fork if error occurs
Patch series "fork: do not expose incomplete mm on fork".
During fork we may place the virtual memory address space into an
inconsistent state before the fork operation is complete.
In addition, we may encounter an error during the fork operation that
indicates that the virtual memory address space is invalidated.
As a result, we should not be exposing it in any way to external machinery
that might interact with the mm or VMAs, machinery that is not designed to
deal with incomplete state.
We specifically update the fork logic to defer khugepaged and ksm to the
end of the operation and only to be invoked if no error arose, and
disallow uffd from observing fork events should an error have occurred.
This patch (of 2):
Currently on fork we expose the virtual address space of a process to
userland unconditionally if uffd is registered in VMAs, regardless of
whether an error arose in the fork.
This is performed in dup_userfaultfd_complete() which is invoked
unconditionally, and performs two duties - invoking registered handlers
for the UFFD_EVENT_FORK event via dup_fctx(), and clearing down
userfaultfd_fork_ctx objects established in dup_userfaultfd().
This is problematic, because the virtual address space may not yet be
correctly initialised if an error arose.
The change in commit d24062914837 ("fork: use __mt_dup() to duplicate
maple tree in dup_mmap()") makes this more pertinent as we may be in a
state where entries in the maple tree are not yet consistent.
We address this by, on fork error, ensuring that we roll back state that
we would otherwise expect to clean up through the event being handled by
userland and perform the memory freeing duty otherwise performed by
dup_userfaultfd_complete().
We do this by implementing a new function, dup_userfaultfd_fail(), which
performs the same loop, only decrementing reference counts.
Note that we perform mmgrab() on the parent and child mm's, however
userfaultfd_ctx_put() will mmdrop() this once the reference count drops to
zero, so we will avoid memory leaks correctly here.

Empirically we can confirm that the former allocates 152 bytes for the
table, while the latter memsets the 168 large block.
Root cause appears that when GPU metrics tables for v2_4 parts were added
it was not considered to enlarge the table to fit.
The fix in this patch is rather "brute force" and perhaps later should be
done in a smarter way, by extracting and consolidating the part version to
size logic to a common helper, instead of brute forcing the largest
possible allocation. Nevertheless, for now this works and fixes the out of
bounds write.
v2:
* Drop impossible v3_0 case. (Mario)

stress-ng-vm-segv in stress-ng is used to stress test the SIGSEGV error
handling function of the system, which tries to cause a SIGSEGV error on
return from unmapping the whole address space of the child process.
Normally this program will not cause kernel crashes. But before the
munmap system call returns to user mode, a potential task_numa_work()
for numa balancing could be added and executed. In this scenario, since the
child process has no vma after munmap, the vma_next() in task_numa_work()
will return a null pointer even if the vma iterator restarts from 0.
Recheck the vma pointer before dereferencing it in task_numa_work().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix error propagation of split bios
The purpose of btrfs_bbio_propagate_error() shall be propagating an error
of split bio to its original btrfs_bio, and tell the error to the upper
layer. However, it's not working well on some cases.
* Case 1. Immediate (or quick) end_bio with an error
When btrfs sends btrfs_bio to mirrored devices, btrfs calls
btrfs_bio_end_io() when all the mirroring bios are completed. If that
btrfs_bio was split, it is from btrfs_clone_bioset and its end_io function
is btrfs_orig_write_end_io. For this case, btrfs_bbio_propagate_error()
accesses the orig_bbio's bio context to increase the error count.
That works well in most cases. However, if the end_io is called enough
fast, orig_bbio's (remaining part after split) bio context may not be
properly set at that time. Since the bio context is set when the orig_bbio
(the last btrfs_bio) is sent to devices, that might be too late for earlier
split btrfs_bio's completion. That will result in NULL pointer
dereference.
That bug is easily reproducible by running btrfs/146 on zoned devices [1]
and it shows the following trace.
[1] You need raid-stripe-tree feature as it create "-d raid0 -m raid1" FS.
