Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 2.6.28.1 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix use-after-free after failure to create a snapshot
At ioctl.c:create_snapshot(), we allocate a pending snapshot structure and
then attach it to the transaction's list of pending snapshots. After that
we call btrfs_commit_transaction(), and if that returns an error we jump
to 'fail' label, where we kfree() the pending snapshot structure. This can
result in a later use-after-free of the pending snapshot:
1) We allocated the pending snapshot and added it to the transaction's
list of pending snapshots;
2) We call btrfs_commit_transaction(), and it fails either at the first
call to btrfs_run_delayed_refs() or btrfs_start_dirty_block_groups().
In both cases, we don't abort the transaction and we release our
transaction handle. We jump to the 'fail' label and free the pending
snapshot structure. We return with the pending snapshot still in the
transaction's list;
3) Another task commits the transaction. This time there's no error at
all, and then during the transaction commit it accesses a pointer
to the pending snapshot structure that the snapshot creation task
has already freed, resulting in a user-after-free.
This issue could actually be detected by smatch, which produced the
following warning:
fs/btrfs/ioctl.c:843 create_snapshot() warn: '&pending_snapshot->list' not removed from list
So fix this by not having the snapshot creation ioctl directly add the
pending snapshot to the transaction's list. Instead add the pending
snapshot to the transaction handle, and then at btrfs_commit_transaction()
we add the snapshot to the list only when we can guarantee that any error
returned after that point will result in a transaction abort, in which
case the ioctl code can safely free the pending snapshot and no one can
access it anymore.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix deadlock between quota disable and qgroup rescan worker
Quota disable ioctl starts a transaction before waiting for the qgroup
rescan worker completes. However, this wait can be infinite and results
in deadlock because of circular dependency among the quota disable
ioctl, the qgroup rescan worker and the other task with transaction such
as block group relocation task.
The deadlock happens with the steps following:
1) Task A calls ioctl to disable quota. It starts a transaction and
waits for qgroup rescan worker completes.
2) Task B such as block group relocation task starts a transaction and
joins to the transaction that task A started. Then task B commits to
the transaction. In this commit, task B waits for a commit by task A.
3) Task C as the qgroup rescan worker starts its job and starts a
transaction. In this transaction start, task C waits for completion
of the transaction that task A started and task B committed.
This deadlock was found with fstests test case btrfs/115 and a zoned
null_blk device. The test case enables and disables quota, and the
block group reclaim was triggered during the quota disable by chance.
The deadlock was also observed by running quota enable and disable in
parallel with 'btrfs balance' command on regular null_blk devices.
An example report of the deadlock:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
isdn: cpai: check ctr->cnr to avoid array index out of bound
The cmtp_add_connection() would add a cmtp session to a controller
and run a kernel thread to process cmtp.
__module_get(THIS_MODULE);
session->task = kthread_run(cmtp_session, session, "kcmtpd_ctr_%d",
session->num);
During this process, the kernel thread would call detach_capi_ctr()
to detach a register controller. if the controller
was not attached yet, detach_capi_ctr() would
trigger an array-index-out-bounds bug.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ARM: 9170/1: fix panic when kasan and kprobe are enabled
arm32 uses software to simulate the instruction replaced
by kprobe. some instructions may be simulated by constructing
assembly functions. therefore, before executing instruction
simulation, it is necessary to construct assembly function
execution environment in C language through binding registers.
after kasan is enabled, the register binding relationship will
be destroyed, resulting in instruction simulation errors and
causing kernel panic.
the kprobe emulate instruction function is distributed in three
files: actions-common.c actions-arm.c actions-thumb.c, so disable
KASAN when compiling these files.
for example, use kprobe insert on cap_capable+20 after kasan
enabled, the cap_capable assembly code is as follows:
<cap_capable>:
e92d47f0 push {r4, r5, r6, r7, r8, r9, sl, lr}
e1a05000 mov r5, r0
e280006c add r0, r0, #108 ; 0x6c

e1a06002 mov r6, r2
e59fa090 ldr sl, [pc, #144] ;
ebfc7bf8 bl c03aa4b4 <__asan_load4>
e595706c ldr r7, [r5, #108] ; 0x6c
e2859014 add r9, r5, #20
......
The emulate_ldr assembly code after enabling kasan is as follows:
c06f1384 <emulate_ldr>:
e92d47f0 push {r4, r5, r6, r7, r8, r9, sl, lr}
e282803c add r8, r2, #60 ; 0x3c
e1a05000 mov r5, r0
e7e37855 ubfx r7, r5, #16, #4
e1a00008 mov r0, r8
e1a09001 mov r9, r1
e1a04002 mov r4, r2
ebf35462 bl c03c6530 <__asan_load4>
e357000f cmp r7, #15
e7e36655 ubfx r6, r5, #12, #4

occurred, and the log is as follows:

Check for out-of-bound read was being performed at the end of while
num_reports loop, and would fill journal with false positives. Added
check to beginning of loop processing so that it doesn't get checked

ext4: fix error handling in ext4_fc_record_modified_inode()
Current code does not fully takes care of krealloc() error case, which
could lead to silent memory corruption or a kernel bug. This patch
fixes that.
Also it cleans up some duplicated error handling logic from various
functions in fast_commit.c file.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: fix segfault in nfc_genl_dump_devices_done
When kmalloc in nfc_genl_dump_devices() fails then
nfc_genl_dump_devices_done() segfaults as below

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: use latest_dev in btrfs_show_devname
The test case btrfs/238 reports the warning below:
WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 481 at fs/btrfs/super.c:2509 btrfs_show_devname+0x104/0x1e8 [btrfs]
CPU: 2 PID: 1 Comm: systemd Tainted: G W O 5.14.0-rc1-custom #72

Reason:
While btrfs_prepare_sprout() moves the fs_devices::devices into
fs_devices::seed_list, the btrfs_show_devname() searches for the devices
and found none, leading to the warning as in above.
Fix:
latest_dev is updated according to the changes to the device list.
That means we could use the latest_dev->name to show the device name in
/proc/self/mounts, the pointer will be always valid as it's assigned
before the device is deleted from the list in remove or replace.
The RCU protection is sufficient as the device structure is freed after
synchronization.
