In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

NFSv4.2: fix nfs4_listxattr kernel BUG at mm/usercopy.c:102

A call to listxattr() with a buffer size = 0 returns the actual
size of the buffer needed for a subsequent call. When size > 0,
nfs4_listxattr() does not return an error because either
generic_listxattr() or nfs4_listxattr_nfs4_label() consumes
exactly all the bytes then size is 0 when calling
nfs4_listxattr_nfs4_user() which then triggers the following
kernel BUG:

Issue is reproduced when generic_listxattr() returns 'system.nfs4_acl',
thus calling lisxattr() with size = 16 will trigger the bug.

Add check on nfs4_listxattr() to return ERANGE error when it is
called with size > 0 and the return value is greater than size.

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: NFSv4.2: corrige el ERROR del kernel nfs4_listxattr en mm/usercopy.c:102 Una llamada a listxattr() con un tamaño de búfer = 0 devuelve el tamaño real del búfer necesario para un convocatoria posterior. Cuando el tamaño > 0, nfs4_listxattr() no devuelve un error porque generic_listxattr() o nfs4_listxattr_nfs4_label() consume exactamente todos los bytes, entonces el tamaño es 0 al llamar a nfs4_listxattr_nfs4_user(), lo que luego activa el siguiente ERROR del kernel: [99.403778] ERROR del kernel en mm/usercopy.c:102! [99.404063] Error interno: Ups - ERROR: 00000000f2000800 [#1] SMP [99.408463] CPU: 0 PID: 3310 Comm: python3 No contaminado 6.6.0-61.fc40.aarch64 #1 [ 99.415827] Seguimiento de llamadas: [ 99.41 5985] usercopy_abort+0x70/0xa0 [ 99.416227] __check_heap_object+0x134/0x158 [ 99.416505] check_heap_object+0x150/0x188 [ 99.416696] __check_object_size.part.0+0x78/0x168 [ 99.416886 ] __check_object_size+0x28/0x40 [ 99.417078] listxattr+0x8c/0x120 [ 99.417252] path_listxattr+0x78/0xe0 [ 99.417476] __arm64_sys_listxattr+0x28/0x40 [ 99.417723] invoke_syscall+0x78/0x100 [ 99.417929] 48/0xf0 [ 99.418186] do_el0_svc+0x24/0x38 [ 99.418376] el0_svc+0x3c/ 0x110 [ 99.418554] el0t_64_sync_handler+0x120/0x130 [ 99.418788] el0t_64_sync+0x194/0x198 [ 99.418994] Código: aa0003e3 d000a3e0 91310000 97f49bdb (d42 10000) El problema se reproduce cuando generic_listxattr() devuelve 'system.nfs4_acl', llamando así a lisxattr() con tamaño = 16 activará el error. Agregue verificación en nfs4_listxattr() para devolver el error ERANGE cuando se llama con un tamaño > 0 y el valor de retorno es mayor que el tamaño.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A system error can be reliably replicated with specific filesystem settings, allowing an attacker to cause a denial of service.
