Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ipv6: Fix infinite recursion in fib6_dump_done(). syzkaller reported infinite recursive calls of fib6_dump_done() during
netlink socket destruction. [1] From the log, syzkaller sent an AF_UNSPEC RTM_GETROUTE message, and then
the response was generated. The following recvmmsg() resumed the dump
for IPv6, but the first call of inet6_dump_fib() failed at kzalloc() due
to the fault injection. [0] 12:01:34 executing program 3: r0 = socket$nl_route(0x10, 0x3, 0x0) sendmsg$nl_route(r0, ... snip ...) recvmmsg(r0, ... snip ...) (fail_nth: 8) Here, fib6_dump_done() was set to nlk_sk(sk)->cb.done, and the next call
of inet6_dump_fib() set it to nlk_sk(sk)->cb.args[3]. syzkaller stopped
receiving the response halfway through, and finally netlink_sock_destruct()
called nlk_sk(sk)->cb.done(). fib6_dump_done() calls fib6_dump_end() and nlk_sk(sk)->cb.done() if it
is still not NULL. fib6_dump_end() rewrites nlk_sk(sk)->cb.done() by
nlk_sk(sk)->cb.args[3], but it has the same function, not NULL, calling
itself recursively and hitting the stack guard page. To avoid the issue, let's set the destructor after kzalloc(). [0]:

En el kernel de Linux se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: ipv6: Se corrigió la recursividad infinita en fib6_dump_done(). syzkaller informó infinitas llamadas recursivas de fib6_dump_done() durante la destrucción del socket netlink. [1] Desde el registro, syzkaller envió un mensaje AF_UNSPEC RTM_GETROUTE y luego se generó la respuesta. El siguiente recvmmsg() reanudó el volcado para IPv6, pero la primera llamada de inet6_dump_fib() falló en kzalloc() debido a la inyección de falla. [0] 12:01:34 ejecutando el programa 3: r0 = socket$nl_route(0x10, 0x3, 0x0) sendmsg$nl_route(r0, ... recorte ...) recvmmsg(r0, ... recorte ...) (fail_nth: 8) Aquí, fib6_dump_done() se configuró en nlk_sk(sk)-&gt;cb.done, y la siguiente llamada de inet6_dump_fib() se configuró en nlk_sk(sk)-&gt;cb.args[3]. syzkaller dejó de recibir la respuesta a la mitad y finalmente netlink_sock_destruct() llamó a nlk_sk(sk)-&gt;cb.done(). fib6_dump_done() llama a fib6_dump_end() y nlk_sk(sk)-&gt;cb.done() si todavía no es NULL. fib6_dump_end() reescribe nlk_sk(sk)-&gt;cb.done() por nlk_sk(sk)-&gt;cb.args[3], pero tiene la misma función, no NULL, llamándose a sí mismo de forma recursiva y accediendo a la página de protección de pila. Para evitar el problema, configuremos el destructor después de kzalloc().

Ziming Zhang discovered that the VMware Virtual GPU DRM driver in the Linux kernel contained an integer overflow vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. Zheng Wang discovered a use-after-free in the Renesas Ethernet AVB driver in the Linux kernel during device removal. A privileged attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.
