Descripción
*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
userfaultfd: gate must_wait writability check on pte_present()<br />
<br />
userfaultfd_must_wait() and userfaultfd_huge_must_wait() read the PTE<br />
without taking the page table lock and then apply pte_write() /<br />
huge_pte_write() to it. Those accessors decode bits from the present<br />
encoding only; on a swap or migration entry they read the offset bits that<br />
happen to share the same position and return an undefined result.<br />
<br />
The intent of the check is "is this fault still WP-blocked?". A<br />
non-marker swap entry means the page is in transit -- the userfault<br />
context the original fault delivered against is no longer the same, and<br />
the swap-in or migration completion path will re-deliver a fresh fault if<br />
userspace still needs to handle it. Worst case under the current code the<br />
garbage write bit says "wait", and the thread stays asleep until a<br />
UFFDIO_WAKE that may never arrive.<br />
<br />
Gate the writability check on pte_present() so the lockless re-check only<br />
inspects present-PTE bits when the entry is actually present. The<br />
non-present, non-marker case returns "don&#39;t wait" and lets the fault path<br />
retry.
