CVE-2024-26750

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> af_unix: Drop oob_skb ref before purging queue in GC.<br /> <br /> syzbot reported another task hung in __unix_gc(). [0]<br /> <br /> The current while loop assumes that all of the left candidates<br /> have oob_skb and calling kfree_skb(oob_skb) releases the remaining<br /> candidates.<br /> <br /> However, I missed a case that oob_skb has self-referencing fd and<br /> another fd and the latter sk is placed before the former in the<br /> candidate list. Then, the while loop never proceeds, resulting<br /> the task hung.<br /> <br /> __unix_gc() has the same loop just before purging the collected skb,<br /> so we can call kfree_skb(oob_skb) there and let __skb_queue_purge()<br /> release all inflight sockets.<br /> <br /> [0]:<br /> Sending NMI from CPU 0 to CPUs 1:<br /> NMI backtrace for cpu 1<br /> CPU: 1 PID: 2784 Comm: kworker/u4:8 Not tainted 6.8.0-rc4-syzkaller-01028-g71b605d32017 #0<br /> Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 01/25/2024<br /> Workqueue: events_unbound __unix_gc<br /> RIP: 0010:__sanitizer_cov_trace_pc+0x0/0x70 kernel/kcov.c:200<br /> Code: 89 fb e8 23 00 00 00 48 8b 3d 84 f5 1a 0c 48 89 de 5b e9 43 26 57 00 0f 1f 00 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 0f 1e fa 48 8b 04 24 65 48 8b 0d 90 52 70 7e 65 8b 15 91 52 70<br /> RSP: 0018:ffffc9000a17fa78 EFLAGS: 00000287<br /> RAX: ffffffff8a0a6108 RBX: ffff88802b6c2640 RCX: ffff88802c0b3b80<br /> RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000000000002 RDI: 0000000000000000<br /> RBP: ffffc9000a17fbf0 R08: ffffffff89383f1d R09: 1ffff1100ee5ff84<br /> R10: dffffc0000000000 R11: ffffed100ee5ff85 R12: 1ffff110056d84ee<br /> R13: ffffc9000a17fae0 R14: 0000000000000000 R15: ffffffff8f47b840<br /> FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff8880b9500000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000<br /> CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033<br /> CR2: 00007ffef5687ff8 CR3: 0000000029b34000 CR4: 00000000003506f0<br /> DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000<br /> DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000fffe0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400<br /> Call Trace:<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> __unix_gc+0xe69/0xf40 net/unix/garbage.c:343<br /> process_one_work kernel/workqueue.c:2633 [inline]<br /> process_scheduled_works+0x913/0x1420 kernel/workqueue.c:2706<br /> worker_thread+0xa5f/0x1000 kernel/workqueue.c:2787<br /> kthread+0x2ef/0x390 kernel/kthread.c:388<br /> ret_from_fork+0x4b/0x80 arch/x86/kernel/process.c:147<br /> ret_from_fork_asm+0x1b/0x30 arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:242<br />
