CVE-2024-40955

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: fix slab-out-of-bounds in ext4_mb_find_good_group_avg_frag_lists() We can trigger a slab-out-of-bounds with the following commands: mkfs.ext4 -F /dev/$disk 10G mount /dev/$disk /tmp/test echo 2147483647 > /sys/fs/ext4/$disk/mb_group_prealloc echo test > /tmp/test/file && sync ================================================================== BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in ext4_mb_find_good_group_avg_frag_lists+0x8a/0x200 [ext4] Read of size 8 at addr ffff888121b9d0f0 by task kworker/u2:0/11 CPU: 0 PID: 11 Comm: kworker/u2:0 Tainted: GL 6.7.0-next-20240118 #521 Call Trace: dump_stack_lvl+0x2c/0x50 kasan_report+0xb6/0xf0 ext4_mb_find_good_group_avg_frag_lists+0x8a/0x200 [ext4] ext4_mb_regular_allocator+0x19e9/0x2370 [ext4] ext4_mb_new_blocks+0x88a/0x1370 [ext4] ext4_ext_map_blocks+0x14f7/0x2390 [ext4] ext4_map_blocks+0x569/0xea0 [ext4] ext4_do_writepages+0x10f6/0x1bc0 [ext4] [...] ================================================================== The flow of issue triggering is as follows: // Set s_mb_group_prealloc to 2147483647 via sysfs ext4_mb_new_blocks ext4_mb_normalize_request ext4_mb_normalize_group_request ac->ac_g_ex.fe_len = EXT4_SB(sb)->s_mb_group_prealloc ext4_mb_regular_allocator ext4_mb_choose_next_group ext4_mb_choose_next_group_best_avail mb_avg_fragment_size_order order = fls(len) - 2 = 29 ext4_mb_find_good_group_avg_frag_lists frag_list = &sbi->s_mb_avg_fragment_size[order] if (list_empty(frag_list)) // Trigger SOOB! At 4k block size, the length of the s_mb_avg_fragment_size list is 14, but an oversized s_mb_group_prealloc is set, causing slab-out-of-bounds to be triggered by an attempt to access an element at index 29. Add a new attr_id attr_clusters_in_group with values in the range [0, sbi->s_clusters_per_group] and declare mb_group_prealloc as that type to fix the issue. In addition avoid returning an order from mb_avg_fragment_size_order() greater than MB_NUM_ORDERS(sb) and reduce some useless loops.

Summary
  • (es) En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: ext4: arreglar slab-out-of-bounds en ext4_mb_find_good_group_avg_frag_lists() Podemos activar un slab-out-of-bounds con los siguientes comandos: mkfs.ext4 -F /dev/ $disk 10G montaje /dev/$disk /tmp/test echo 2147483647 > /sys/fs/ext4/$disk/mb_group_prealloc echo test > /tmp/test/file && sync ============ ==================================================== ==== ERROR: KASAN: losa fuera de los límites en ext4_mb_find_good_group_avg_frag_lists+0x8a/0x200 [ext4] Lectura de tamaño 8 en la dirección ffff888121b9d0f0 por tarea kworker/u2:0/11 CPU: 0 PID: 11 Comm: kworker/ u2:0 Tainted: GL 6.7.0-next-20240118 #521 Seguimiento de llamadas: dump_stack_lvl+0x2c/0x50 kasan_report+0xb6/0xf0 ext4_mb_find_good_group_avg_frag_lists+0x8a/0x200 [ext4_mb_regular_allocator+0x19e9 /0x2370 [ext4] text4_mb_new_blocks+0x88a/0x1370 [ text4] text4_ext_map_blocks+0x14f7/0x2390 [ext4] text4_map_blocks+0x569/0xea0 [ext4] text4_do_writepages+0x10f6/0x1bc0 [ext4] [...] ==================== ================================================ El flujo de La activación del problema es la siguiente: // Establezca s_mb_group_prealloc en 2147483647 a través de sysfs ext4_mb_new_blocks ext4_mb_normalize_request ext4_mb_normalize_group_request ac->ac_g_ex.fe_len = EXT4_SB(sb)->s_mb_group_prealloc ext4_mb_regular_allocator ext4_mb_choose _next_group ext4_mb_choose_next_group_best_avail mb_avg_fragment_size_order orden = fls(len) - 2 = 29 ext4_mb_find_good_group_avg_frag_lists frag_list = &sbi- >s_mb_avg_fragment_size[order] if (list_empty(frag_list)) // ¡Activa SOOB! En un tamaño de bloque de 4k, la longitud de la lista s_mb_avg_fragment_size es 14, pero se establece un s_mb_group_prealloc de gran tamaño, lo que provoca que los límites de losa se activen al intentar acceder a un elemento en el índice 29. Agregue un nuevo attr_id attr_clusters_in_group con valores en el rango [0, sbi->s_clusters_per_group] y declare mb_group_prealloc como ese tipo para solucionar el problema. Además, evite devolver un pedido de mb_avg_fragment_size_order() mayor que MB_NUM_ORDERS(sb) y reduzca algunos bucles inútiles.
