Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
rust_binder: avoid reading the written value in offsets array<br />
<br />
When sending a transaction, its offsets array is first copied into the<br />
target proc&#39;s vma, and then the values are read back from there. This is<br />
normally fine because the vma is a read-only mapping, so the target<br />
process cannot change the value under us.<br />
<br />
However, if the target process somehow gains the ability to write to its<br />
own vma, it could change the offset before it&#39;s read back, causing the<br />
kernel to misinterpret what the sender meant. If the sender happens to<br />
send a payload with a specific shape, this could in the worst case lead<br />
to the receiver being able to privilege escalate into the sender.<br />
<br />
The intent is that gaining the ability to change the read-only vma of<br />
your own process should not be exploitable, so remove this TOCTOU read<br />
even though it&#39;s unexploitable without another Binder bug.
