CVE-2022-49085

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drbd: Fix five use after free bugs in get_initial_state In get_initial_state, it calls notify_initial_state_done(skb,..) if cb->args[5]==1. If genlmsg_put() failed in notify_initial_state_done(), the skb will be freed by nlmsg_free(skb). Then get_initial_state will goto out and the freed skb will be used by return value skb->len, which is a uaf bug. What's worse, the same problem goes even further: skb can also be freed in the notify_*_state_change -> notify_*_state calls below. Thus 4 additional uaf bugs happened. My patch lets the problem callee functions: notify_initial_state_done and notify_*_state_change return an error code if errors happen. So that the error codes could be propagated and the uaf bugs can be avoid. v2 reports a compilation warning. This v3 fixed this warning and built successfully in my local environment with no additional warnings. v2: https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1435218/

Summary
  • (es) En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: drbd: Arregla cinco errores de use-after-free en get_initial_state En get_initial_state, llama a notify_initial_state_done(skb,..) si cb->args[5]==1. Si genlmsg_put() falló en notify_initial_state_done(), el skb será liberado por nlmsg_free(skb). Entonces get_initial_state saldrá y el skb liberado será utilizado por el valor de retorno skb->len, que es un error de uaf. Lo que es peor, el mismo problema va aún más allá: skb también se puede liberar en las llamadas notify_*_state_change -> notify_*_state a continuación. Por lo tanto, ocurrieron 4 errores de uaf adicionales. Mi parche permite que las funciones llamadas al problema: notify_initial_state_done y notify_*_state_change devuelvan un código de error si ocurren errores. Para que los códigos de error se puedan propagar y los errores de uaf se puedan evitar, la v2 informa una advertencia de compilación. Esta v3 corrigió esta advertencia y se compiló correctamente en mi entorno local sin advertencias adicionales. v2: https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1435218/
