Descriptions
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: x86/lib: Revert to _ASM_EXTABLE_UA() for {get,put}_user() fixups During memory error injection test on kernels >= v6.4, the kernel panics
like below. However, this issue couldn't be reproduced on kernels <= v6.3. mce: [Hardware Error]: CPU 296: Machine Check Exception: f Bank 1: bd80000000100134 mce: [Hardware Error]: RIP 10:<ffffffff821b9776> {__get_user_nocheck_4+0x6/0x20} mce: [Hardware Error]: TSC 411a93533ed ADDR 346a8730040 MISC 86 mce: [Hardware Error]: PROCESSOR 0:a06d0 TIME 1706000767 SOCKET 1 APIC 211 microcode 80001490 mce: [Hardware Error]: Run the above through 'mcelog --ascii' mce: [Hardware Error]: Machine check: Data load in unrecoverable area of kernel Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal local machine check The MCA code can recover from an in-kernel #MC if the fixup type is
EX_TYPE_UACCESS, explicitly indicating that the kernel is attempting to
access userspace memory. However, if the fixup type is EX_TYPE_DEFAULT
the only thing that is raised for an in-kernel #MC is a panic. ex_handler_uaccess() would warn if users gave a non-canonical addresses
(with bit 63 clear) to {get, put}_user(), which was unexpected. Therefore, commit b19b74bc99b1 ("x86/mm: Rework address range check in get_user() and put_user()") replaced _ASM_EXTABLE_UA() with _ASM_EXTABLE() for {get, put}_user()
fixups. However, the new fixup type EX_TYPE_DEFAULT results in a panic. Commit 6014bc27561f ("x86-64: make access_ok() independent of LAM") added the check gp_fault_address_ok() right before the WARN_ONCE() in
ex_handler_uaccess() to not warn about non-canonical user addresses due
to LAM. With that in place, revert back to _ASM_EXTABLE_UA() for {get,put}_user()
exception fixups in order to be able to handle in-kernel MCEs correctly
again. [ bp: Massage commit message. ]
En el kernel de Linux, se resolvió la siguiente vulnerabilidad: x86/lib: vuelva a _ASM_EXTABLE_UA() para reparaciones de {get,put}_user() Durante la prueba de inyección de errores de memoria en kernels >= v6.4, el kernel entra en pánico como se muestra a continuación. Sin embargo, este problema no se pudo reproducir en kernels <= v6.3. mce: [Error de hardware]: CPU 296: Excepción de verificación de la máquina: f Banco 1: bd80000000100134 mce: [Error de hardware]: RIP 10: {__get_user_nocheck_4+0x6/0x20} mce: [Error de hardware]: TSC 411a93533ed ADDR 346a87300 40 MISC 86 mce: [Error de hardware]: PROCESADOR 0:a06d0 HORA 1706000767 SOCKET 1 APIC 211 microcódigo 80001490 mce: [Error de hardware]: Ejecute lo anterior a través de 'mcelog --ascii' mce: [Error de hardware]: Verificación de la máquina: Carga de datos en un área irrecuperable del kernel Pánico del kernel - no se sincroniza: verificación fatal de la máquina local El código MCA se puede recuperar de un #MC en el kernel si el tipo de reparación es EX_TYPE_UACCESS, lo que indica explícitamente que el kernel está intentando acceder a la memoria del espacio de usuario. Sin embargo, si el tipo de reparación es EX_TYPE_DEFAULT, lo único que se genera para un #MC en el kernel es pánico. ex_handler_uaccess() advertiría si los usuarios proporcionaban direcciones no canónicas (con el bit 63 claro) a {get, put}_user(), lo cual era inesperado. Por lo tanto, el commit b19b74bc99b1 ("x86/mm: Reelaborar la verificación del rango de direcciones en get_user() y put_user()") reemplazó _ASM_EXTABLE_UA() con _ASM_EXTABLE() para las correcciones de {get, put}_user(). Sin embargo, el nuevo tipo de reparación EX_TYPE_DEFAULT provoca pánico. El commit 6014bc27561f ("x86-64: hacer que access_ok() sea independiente de LAM") agregó la verificación gp_fault_address_ok() justo antes de WARN_ONCE() en ex_handler_uaccess() para no advertir sobre direcciones de usuarios no canónicas debido a LAM. Una vez implementado esto, vuelva a _ASM_EXTABLE_UA() para corregir excepciones de {get,put}_user() para poder manejar correctamente los MCE en el kernel nuevamente. [pb: mensaje de commit. ]
