Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: marvell: prestera: fix incorrect structure access In line: upper = info->upper_dev;
We access upper_dev field, which is related only for particular events
(e.g. event == NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER). So, this line cause invalid memory
access for another events,
when ptr is not netdev_notifier_changeupper_info. The KASAN logs are as follows: [ 30.123165] BUG: KASAN: stack-out-of-bounds in prestera_netdev_port_event.constprop.0+0x68/0x538 [prestera]

En el kernel de Linux se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: net:marvell:prestera: corrige el acceso a la estructura incorrecta En línea: superior = info->upper_dev; Accedemos al campo Upper_dev, que está relacionado sólo para eventos particulares (por ejemplo, evento == NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER). Entonces, esta línea causa un acceso no válido a la memoria para otros eventos, cuando ptr no es netdev_notifier_changeupper_info. Los registros de KASAN son los siguientes: [30.123165] ERROR: KASAN: pila fuera de los límites en prestera_netdev_port_event.constprop.0+0x68/0x538 [prestera] [30.133336] Lectura de tamaño 8 en la dirección ffff80000cf772b0 mediante tarea udevd/778 [ 0x0/0 x2c0 [ 30.159320] show_stack+0x18/0x30 [ 30.162729] dump_stack_lvl+0x68/0x84 [ 30.166491] print_address_description.constprop.0+0x74/0x2b8 [ 30.172346] kasan_report+0x1e8/0x250 [ 3 0.176102] __asan_load8+0x98/0xe0 [ 30.179682] prestera_netdev_port_event.constprop .0+0x68/0x538 [prestera] [ 30.186847] prestera_netdev_event_handler+0x1b4/0x1c0 [prestera] [ 30.193313] raw_notifier_call_chain+0x74/0xa0 [ 30.197860] call_netdevice_notifiers_info+0x68/0xc0 [ 30.202924] registro_netdevice+0x3cc/0x760 [ 30.207190] registro_netdev+0x24 /0x50 [ 30.211015] prestera_device_register+0x8a0/0xba0 [prestera]
