Descriptions

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

nfsd: cancel nfsd_shrinker_work using sync mode in nfs4_state_shutdown_net

In the normal case, when we excute `echo 0 > /proc/fs/nfsd/threads`, the
function `nfs4_state_destroy_net` in `nfs4_state_shutdown_net` will
release all resources related to the hashed `nfs4_client`. If the
`nfsd_client_shrinker` is running concurrently, the `expire_client`
function will first unhash this client and then destroy it. This can
lead to the following warning. Additionally, numerous use-after-free
errors may occur as well.

nfsd_client_shrinker echo 0 > /proc/fs/nfsd/threads

To resolve this issue, cancel `nfsd_shrinker_work` using synchronous
mode in nfs4_state_shutdown_net.

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: nfsd: cancelar nfsd_shrinker_work usando el modo de sincronización en nfs4_state_shutdown_net. En el caso normal, cuando ejecutamos `echo 0 > /proc/fs/nfsd/threads`, la función `nfs4_state_destroy_net` en `nfs4_state_shutdown_net` liberará todos los recursos relacionados con el `nfs4_client` con hash. Si `nfsd_client_shrinker` se está ejecutando simultáneamente, la función `expire_client` primero deshará el hash de este cliente y luego lo destruirá. Esto puede generar la siguiente advertencia. Además, también pueden ocurrir numerosos errores de use-after-free. nfsd_client_shrinker echo 0 > /proc/fs/nfsd/threads expire_client nfsd_shutdown_net unhash_client ... nfs4_state_shutdown_net /* no esperará a que el reductor salga */ /* cancel_work(&nn->nfsd_shrinker_work) * nfsd_file para esto /* no destruirá el cliente1 sin hash */ * el cliente1 sigue activo nfs4_state_destroy_net */ nfsd_file_cache_shutdown /* advertencia de activación */ kmem_cache_destroy(nfsd_file_slab) kmem_cache_destroy(nfsd_file_mark_slab) /* liberar nfsd_file y marcar */ __destroy_client ============================================================================ ERROR nfsd_file (no contaminado): objetos restantes en nfsd_file en __kmem_cache_shutdown() -------------------------------------------------------------------- CPU: 4 UID: 0 PID: 764 Comm: sh No contaminado 6.12.0-rc3+ #1 dump_stack_lvl+0x53/0x70 slab_err+0xb0/0xf0 __kmem_cache_shutdown+0x15c/0x310 kmem_cache_destroy+0x66/0x160 nfsd_file_cache_shutdown+0xac/0x210 [nfsd] nfsd_destroy_serv+0x251/0x2a0 [nfsd] nfsd_svc+0x125/0x1e0 [nfsd] write_threads+0x16a/0x2a0 [nfsd] nfsctl_transaction_write+0x74/0xa0 [nfsd] vfs_write+0x1a5/0x6d0 ksys_write+0xc1/0x160 do_syscall_64+0x5f/0x170 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x76/0x7e ========================================================================= ERROR nfsd_file_mark (Corrompido: GBW): Objetos que permanecen en nfsd_file_mark en __kmem_cache_shutdown() -------------------------------------------------------------------- dump_stack_lvl+0x53/0x70 slab_err+0xb0/0xf0 __kmem_cache_shutdown+0x15c/0x310 kmem_cache_destroy+0x66/0x160 nfsd_file_cache_shutdown+0xc8/0x210 [nfsd] Para resolver este problema, cancele `nfsd_shrinker_work` usando el modo sincrónico en nfs4_state_shutdown_net.
