CVE-2021-46933

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: f_fs: Clear ffs_eventfd in ffs_data_clear. ffs_data_clear is indirectly called from both ffs_fs_kill_sb and ffs_ep0_release, so it ends up being called twice when userland closes ep0 and then unmounts f_fs. If userland provided an eventfd along with function's USB descriptors, it ends up calling eventfd_ctx_put as many times, causing a refcount underflow. NULL-ify ffs_eventfd to prevent these extraneous eventfd_ctx_put calls. Also, set epfiles to NULL right after de-allocating it, for readability. For completeness, ffs_data_clear actually ends up being called thrice, the last call being before the whole ffs structure gets freed, so when this specific sequence happens there is a second underflow happening (but not being reported): /sys/kernel/debug/tracing# modprobe usb_f_fs /sys/kernel/debug/tracing# echo ffs_data_clear > set_ftrace_filter /sys/kernel/debug/tracing# echo function > current_tracer /sys/kernel/debug/tracing# echo 1 > tracing_on (setup gadget, run and kill function userland process, teardown gadget) /sys/kernel/debug/tracing# echo 0 > tracing_on /sys/kernel/debug/tracing# cat trace smartcard-openp-436 [000] ..... 1946.208786: ffs_data_clear <-ffs_data_closed smartcard-openp-431 [000] ..... 1946.279147: ffs_data_clear <-ffs_data_closed smartcard-openp-431 [000] .n... 1946.905512: ffs_data_clear <-ffs_data_put Warning output corresponding to above trace: [ 1946.284139] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 431 at lib/refcount.c:28 refcount_warn_saturate+0x110/0x15c [ 1946.293094] refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.

Summary
  • (es) En el kernel de Linux se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: usb: gadget: f_fs: Borrar ffs_eventfd en ffs_data_clear. ffs_data_clear se llama indirectamente desde ffs_fs_kill_sb y ffs_ep0_release, por lo que termina siendo llamado dos veces cuando el área de usuario cierra ep0 y luego desmonta f_fs. Si Userland proporcionó un eventfd junto con los descriptores USB de la función, termina llamando a eventfd_ctx_put tantas veces, provocando un desbordamiento insuficiente de recuento. NULL-ify ffs_eventfd para evitar estas llamadas extrañas eventfd_ctx_put. Además, establezca epfiles en NULL justo después de desasignarlo, para facilitar la lectura. Para completar, ffs_data_clear en realidad termina siendo llamado tres veces, la última llamada es antes de que se libere toda la estructura de ffs, por lo que cuando ocurre esta secuencia específica, se produce un segundo desbordamiento insuficiente (pero no se informa): /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # modprobe usb_f_fs /sys/kernel/debug/tracing# echo ffs_data_clear &gt; set_ftrace_filter /sys/kernel/debug/tracing# echo function &gt; current_tracer /sys/kernel/debug/tracing# echo 1 &gt; tracing_on (dispositivo de configuración, función ejecutar y finalizar proceso de usuario, dispositivo de desmontaje) /sys/kernel/debug/tracing# echo 0 &gt; tracing_on /sys/kernel/debug/tracing# cat trace smartcard-openp-436 [000] ..... 1946.208786: ffs_data_clear &lt;-ffs_data_closed tarjeta inteligente -openp-431 [000] ..... 1946.279147: ffs_data_clear &lt;-ffs_data_closed smartcard-openp-431 [000] .n... 1946.905512: ffs_data_clear &lt;-ffs_data_put Salida de advertencia correspondiente al seguimiento anterior: [ 1946.284139] ADVERTENCIA: CPU : 0 PID: 431 en lib/refcount.c:28 refcount_warn_saturate+0x110/0x15c [ 1946.293094] refcount_t: desbordamiento insuficiente; use-after-free.
