CVE-2022-3176

Se presenta un uso de memoria previamente liberada en la función io_uring en el kernel de Linux. Signalfd_poll() y binder_poll() usan una cola de espera cuyo tiempo de vida es la tarea actual. Enviará una notificación POLLFREE a todos los esperadores antes de que la cola sea liberada. Desafortunadamente, el sondeo io_uring no maneja POLLFREE. Esto permite que sea producido un uso de memoria previamente liberada si un signalfd o binder fd es sondeado con io_uring poll, y la cola de espera es liberada. Recomendamos actualizar el commit fc78b2fc21f10c4c9c4d5d659a685710ffa63659

Selim Enes Karaduman discovered that a race condition existed in the General notification queue implementation of the Linux kernel, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Pawan Kumar Gupta, Alyssa Milburn, Amit Peled, Shani Rehana, Nir Shildan and Ariel Sabba discovered that some Intel processors with Enhanced Indirect Branch Restricted Speculation did not properly handle RET instructions after a VM exits. A local attacker could potentially use this to expose sensitive information.
