Descripción
*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
ACPI: NFIT: core: Fix acpi_nfit_init() error cleanup<br />
<br />
If acpi_nfit_init() fails after adding the acpi_desc object to the<br />
acpi_descs list, that object is never removed from that list because<br />
the acpi_nfit_shutdown() devm action is not added for the NFIT device<br />
in that case. Next, the acpi_nfit_init() failure causes<br />
acpi_nfit_probe() to fail, the acpi_desc object is freed, and a<br />
dangling pointer is left behind in the acpi_descs. Any subsequent<br />
ACPI Machine Check Exception will trigger nfit_handle_mce() which<br />
iterates over acpi_descs and so a use-after-free will occur.<br />
<br />
Moreover, if acpi_nfit_probe() returns 0 after installing a notify<br />
handler for the NFIT device and without allocating the acpi_desc<br />
object and setting the NFIT device&#39;s driver data pointer, the<br />
acpi_desc object will be allocated by acpi_nfit_update_notify()<br />
and acpi_nfit_init() will be called to initialize it. Regardless<br />
of whether or not acpi_nfit_init() fails in that case, the<br />
acpi_nfit_shutdown() devm action is not added for the NFIT device<br />
and acpi_desc is never removed from the acpi_descs list. If the<br />
acpi_desc object is freed subsequently on driver removal, any<br />
subsequent ACPI MCE will lead to a use-after-free like in the<br />
previous case.<br />
<br />
To address the first issue mentioned above, make acpi_nfit_probe()<br />
call acpi_nfit_shutdown() directly on acpi_nfit_init() failures and<br />
to address the other one, add a remove callback to the driver and<br />
make it call acpi_nfit_shutdown(). Also, since it is now possible to<br />
pass NULL to acpi_nfit_shutdown() or the acpi_desc object passed to it<br />
may not have been initialized, add checks against NULL for acpi_desc and<br />
its nvdimm_bus field to that function and make acpi_nfit_unregister()<br />
clear the latter after unregistering the NVDIMM bus.
