CVE-2024-41070

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Prevent UAF in kvm_spapr_tce_attach_iommu_group() Al reported a possible use-after-free (UAF) in kvm_spapr_tce_attach_iommu_group(). It looks up `stt` from tablefd, but then continues to use it after doing fdput() on the returned fd. After the fdput() the tablefd is free to be closed by another thread. The close calls kvm_spapr_tce_release() and then release_spapr_tce_table() (via call_rcu()) which frees `stt`. Although there are calls to rcu_read_lock() in kvm_spapr_tce_attach_iommu_group() they are not sufficient to prevent the UAF, because `stt` is used outside the locked regions. With an artifcial delay after the fdput() and a userspace program which triggers the race, KASAN detects the UAF: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in kvm_spapr_tce_attach_iommu_group+0x298/0x720 [kvm] Read of size 4 at addr c000200027552c30 by task kvm-vfio/2505 CPU: 54 PID: 2505 Comm: kvm-vfio Not tainted 6.10.0-rc3-next-20240612-dirty #1 Hardware name: 8335-GTH POWER9 0x4e1202 opal:skiboot-v6.5.3-35-g1851b2a06 PowerNV Call Trace: dump_stack_lvl+0xb4/0x108 (unreliable) print_report+0x2b4/0x6ec kasan_report+0x118/0x2b0 __asan_load4+0xb8/0xd0 kvm_spapr_tce_attach_iommu_group+0x298/0x720 [kvm] kvm_vfio_set_attr+0x524/0xac0 [kvm] kvm_device_ioctl+0x144/0x240 [kvm] sys_ioctl+0x62c/0x1810 system_call_exception+0x190/0x440 system_call_vectored_common+0x15c/0x2ec ...

To keep the patch minimal add a call to fdput() at each of the existing return paths. Future work can convert the function to goto or __cleanup style cleanup. With the fix in place the test case no longer triggers the UAF.

Summary
  • (es) En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Prevenir UAF en kvm_spapr_tce_attach_iommu_group() Al informó un posible use after free (UAF) en kvm_spapr_tce_attach_iommu_group(). Busca `stt` en tablefd, pero luego continúa usándolo después de realizar fdput() en el fd devuelto. Después de fdput(), otro hilo puede cerrar el tablefd. El cierre llama a kvm_spapr_tce_release() y luego a release_spapr_tce_table() (a través de call_rcu()) que libera `stt`. Aunque hay llamadas a rcu_read_lock() en kvm_spapr_tce_attach_iommu_group(), no son suficientes para evitar la UAF, porque `stt` se usa fuera de las regiones bloqueadas. Con un retraso artificial después de fdput() y un programa de espacio de usuario que desencadena la ejecución, KASAN detecta la UAF: ERROR: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in kvm_spapr_tce_attach_iommu_group+0x298/0x720 [kvm] Lectura de tamaño 4 en dirección c000200027552c30 por tarea kvm-vfio/2505 CPU: 54 PID: 2505 Comm: kvm-vfio Not tainted 6.10.0-rc3-next-20240612-dirty #1 Nombre de hardware: 8335-GTH POWER9 0x4e1202 opal:skiboot-v6.5.3-35 -g1851b2a06 Seguimiento de llamadas de PowerNV: dump_stack_lvl+0xb4/0x108 (no confiable) print_report+0x2b4/0x6ec kasan_report+0x118/0x2b0 __asan_load4+0xb8/0xd0 kvm_spapr_tce_attach_iommu_group+0x298/0x720 [kvm] kvm_vfio_set_attr+0x524/0xac0 [kvm] kvm_device_ioctl+0x144/0x240 [kvm] sys_ioctl+0x62c/0x1810 system_call_exception+0x190/0x440 system_call_vectored_common+0x15c/0x2ec ...

Para mantener el parche mínimo, agregue una llamada a fdput() en cada una de las rutas de retorno existentes. El trabajo futuro puede convertir la función a limpieza de estilo goto o __cleanup. Con la solución implementada, el caso de prueba ya no activa la UAF.
