In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm: vmalloc: ensure vmap_block is initialised before adding to queue
Commit 8c61291fd850 ("mm: fix incorrect vbq reference in
purge_fragmented_block") extended the 'vmap_block' structure to contain a
'cpu' field which is set at allocation time to the id of the initialising
CPU.
When a new 'vmap_block' is being instantiated by new_vmap_block(), the
partially initialised structure is added to the local 'vmap_block_queue'
xarray before the 'cpu' field has been initialised. If another CPU is
concurrently walking the xarray (e.g. via vm_unmap_aliases()), then it
may perform an out-of-bounds access to the remote queue thanks to an
uninitialised index.
This has been observed as UBSAN errors in Android:
| Internal error: UBSAN: array index out of bounds: 00000000f2005512 [#1] PREEMPT SMP
|
| Call trace:
| purge_fragmented_block+0x204/0x21c
| _vm_unmap_aliases+0x170/0x378

Move the initialisation of 'vb->cpu' in new_vmap_block() ahead of the
addition to the xarray.
