Descriptions

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

mm/hugetlb: fix missing hugetlb_lock for resv uncharge

There is a recent report on UFFDIO_COPY over hugetlb:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/000000000000ee06de0616177560@google.com/

350: lockdep_assert_held(&hugetlb_lock);

Should be an issue in hugetlb but triggered in an userfault context, where
it goes into the unlikely path where two threads modifying the resv map
together. Mike has a fix in that path for resv uncharge but it looks like
the locking criteria was overlooked: hugetlb_cgroup_uncharge_folio_rsvd()
will update the cgroup pointer, so it requires to be called with the lock
held.

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: mm/hugetlb: corrige la falta de Hugetlb_lock para descarga de resv. Hay un informe reciente sobre UFFDIO_COPY sobre Hugetlb: https://lore.kernel.org/all/000000000000ee06de0616177560@google.com/ 350: lockdep_assert_held(&hugetlb_lock); Debería ser un problema en hugetlb pero se activa en un contexto de error de usuario, donde entra en la ruta poco probable en la que dos subprocesos modifican el mapa resv juntos. Mike tiene una solución en esa ruta para la descarga de resv, pero parece que se pasó por alto el criterio de bloqueo: hugetlb_cgroup_uncharge_folio_rsvd() actualizará el puntero de cgroup, por lo que es necesario llamarlo con el bloqueo retenido.
