CVE-2024-36489

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tls: fix missing memory barrier in tls_init In tls_init(), a write memory barrier is missing, and store-store reordering may cause NULL dereference in tls_{setsockopt,getsockopt}. CPU0 CPU1 ----- ----- // In tls_init() // In tls_ctx_create() ctx = kzalloc() ctx->sk_proto = READ_ONCE(sk->sk_prot) -(1) // In update_sk_prot() WRITE_ONCE(sk->sk_prot, tls_prots) -(2) // In sock_common_setsockopt() READ_ONCE(sk->sk_prot)->setsockopt() // In tls_{setsockopt,getsockopt}() ctx->sk_proto->setsockopt() -(3) In the above scenario, when (1) and (2) are reordered, (3) can observe the NULL value of ctx->sk_proto, causing NULL dereference. To fix it, we rely on rcu_assign_pointer() which implies the release barrier semantic. By moving rcu_assign_pointer() after ctx->sk_proto is initialized, we can ensure that ctx->sk_proto are visible when changing sk->sk_prot.

Summary
  • (es) En el kernel de Linux, se resolvió la siguiente vulnerabilidad: tls: corrige la barrera de memoria faltante en tls_init En tls_init(), falta una barrera de memoria de escritura y el reordenamiento tienda-tienda puede causar una desreferencia NULL en tls_{setsockopt,getsockopt}. CPU0 CPU1 ----- ----- // En tls_init() // En tls_ctx_create() ctx = kzalloc() ctx->sk_proto = READ_ONCE(sk->sk_prot) -(1) // En update_sk_prot( ) WRITE_ONCE(sk->sk_prot, tls_prots) -(2) // En sock_common_setsockopt() READ_ONCE(sk->sk_prot)->setsockopt() // En tls_{setsockopt,getsockopt}() ctx->sk_proto->setsockopt () -(3) En el escenario anterior, cuando (1) y (2) se reordenan, (3) puede observar el valor NULL de ctx->sk_proto, lo que provoca la desreferencia NULL. Para solucionarlo, confiamos en rcu_assign_pointer() que implica la semántica de barrera de liberación. Al mover rcu_assign_pointer() después de inicializar ctx->sk_proto, podemos asegurarnos de que ctx->sk_proto sean visibles al cambiar sk->sk_prot.
