*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> atm: fore200e: fix use-after-free in tasklets during device removal<br /> <br /> When the PCA-200E or SBA-200E adapter is being detached, the fore200e<br /> is deallocated. However, the tx_tasklet or rx_tasklet may still be running<br /> or pending, leading to use-after-free bug when the already freed fore200e<br /> is accessed again in fore200e_tx_tasklet() or fore200e_rx_tasklet().<br /> <br /> One of the race conditions can occur as follows:<br /> <br /> CPU 0 (cleanup) | CPU 1 (tasklet)<br /> fore200e_pca_remove_one() | fore200e_interrupt()<br /> fore200e_shutdown() | tasklet_schedule()<br /> kfree(fore200e) | fore200e_tx_tasklet()<br /> | fore200e-&gt; // UAF<br /> <br /> Fix this by ensuring tx_tasklet or rx_tasklet is properly canceled before<br /> the fore200e is released. Add tasklet_kill() in fore200e_shutdown() to<br /> synchronize with any pending or running tasklets. Moreover, since<br /> fore200e_reset() could prevent further interrupts or data transfers,<br /> the tasklet_kill() should be placed after fore200e_reset() to prevent<br /> the tasklet from being rescheduled in fore200e_interrupt(). Finally,<br /> it only needs to do tasklet_kill() when the fore200e state is greater<br /> than or equal to FORE200E_STATE_IRQ, since tasklets are uninitialized<br /> in earlier states. In a word, the tasklet_kill() should be placed in<br /> the FORE200E_STATE_IRQ branch within the switch...case structure.<br /> <br /> This bug was identified through static analysis.

*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> net: consume xmit errors of GSO frames<br /> <br /> udpgro_frglist.sh and udpgro_bench.sh are the flakiest tests<br /> currently in NIPA. They fail in the same exact way, TCP GRO<br /> test stalls occasionally and the test gets killed after 10min.<br /> <br /> These tests use veth to simulate GRO. They attach a trivial<br /> ("return XDP_PASS;") XDP program to the veth to force TSO off<br /> and NAPI on.<br /> <br /> Digging into the failure mode we can see that the connection<br /> is completely stuck after a burst of drops. The sender&amp;#39;s snd_nxt<br /> is at sequence number N [1], but the receiver claims to have<br /> received (rcv_nxt) up to N + 3 * MSS [2]. Last piece of the puzzle<br /> is that senders rtx queue is not empty (let&amp;#39;s say the block in<br /> the rtx queue is at sequence number N - 4 * MSS [3]).<br /> <br /> In this state, sender sends a retransmission from the rtx queue<br /> with a single segment, and sequence numbers N-4*MSS:N-3*MSS [3].<br /> Receiver sees it and responds with an ACK all the way up to<br /> N + 3 * MSS [2]. But sender will reject this ack as TCP_ACK_UNSENT_DATA<br /> because it has no recollection of ever sending data that far out [1].<br /> And we are stuck.<br /> <br /> The root cause is the mess of the xmit return codes. veth returns<br /> an error when it can&amp;#39;t xmit a frame. We end up with a loss event<br /> like this:<br /> <br /> -------------------------------------------------<br /> | GSO super frame 1 | GSO super frame 2 |<br /> |-----------------------------------------------|<br /> | seg | seg | seg | seg | seg | seg | seg | seg |<br /> | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 |<br /> -------------------------------------------------<br /> x ok ok | ok ok ok <br /> \\<br /> snd_nxt<br /> <br /> "x" means packet lost by veth, and "ok" means it went thru.<br /> Since veth has TSO disabled in this test it sees individual segments.<br /> Segment 1 is on the retransmit queue and will be resent.<br /> <br /> So why did the sender not advance snd_nxt even tho it clearly did<br /> send up to seg 8? tcp_write_xmit() interprets the return code<br /> from the core to mean that data has not been sent at all. Since<br /> TCP deals with GSO super frames, not individual segment the crux<br /> of the problem is that loss of a single segment can be interpreted<br /> as loss of all. TCP only sees the last return code for the last<br /> segment of the GSO frame (in brackets in the diagram above).<br /> <br /> Of course for the problem to occur we need a setup or a device<br /> without a Qdisc. Otherwise Qdisc layer disconnects the protocol<br /> layer from the device errors completely.<br /> <br /> We have multiple ways to fix this.<br /> <br /> 1) make veth not return an error when it lost a packet.<br /> While this is what I think we did in the past, the issue keeps<br /> reappearing and it&amp;#39;s annoying to debug. The game of whack<br /> a mole is not great.<br /> <br /> 2) fix the damn return codes<br /> We only talk about NETDEV_TX_OK and NETDEV_TX_BUSY in the<br /> documentation, so maybe we should make the return code from<br /> ndo_start_xmit() a boolean. I like that the most, but perhaps<br /> some ancient, not-really-networking protocol would suffer.<br /> <br /> 3) make TCP ignore the errors<br /> It is not entirely clear to me what benefit TCP gets from<br /> interpreting the result of ip_queue_xmit()? Specifically once<br /> the connection is established and we&amp;#39;re pushing data - packet<br /> loss is just packet loss?<br /> <br /> 4) this fix<br /> Ignore the rc in the Qdisc-less+GSO case, since it&amp;#39;s unreliable.<br /> We already always return OK in the TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS case.<br /> In the Qdisc-less case let&amp;#39;s be a bit more conservative and only<br /> mask the GSO errors. This path is taken by non-IP-"networks"<br /> like CAN, MCTP etc, so we could regress some ancient thing.<br /> This is the simplest, but also maybe the hackiest fix?<br /> <br /> Similar fix has been proposed by Eric in the past but never committed<br /> because original reporter was working with an OOT driver and wasn&amp;#39;t<br /> providing feedback (see Link).

*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> soc: ti: pruss: Fix double free in pruss_clk_mux_setup()<br /> <br /> In the pruss_clk_mux_setup(), the devm_add_action_or_reset() indirectly<br /> calls pruss_of_free_clk_provider(), which calls of_node_put(clk_mux_np)<br /> on the error path. However, after the devm_add_action_or_reset()<br /> returns, the of_node_put(clk_mux_np) is called again, causing a double<br /> free.<br /> <br /> Fix by returning directly, to avoid the duplicate of_node_put().

Before recent<br /> commit 7eab73b18630 ("netconsole: convert to NBCON console infrastructure")<br /> the message would be placed in printk_shared_pbufs, a static global<br /> buffer, so KASAN had harder time catching OOB accesses.

*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> net/mlx5e: Fix "scheduling while atomic" in IPsec MAC address query<br /> <br /> Fix a "scheduling while atomic" bug in mlx5e_ipsec_init_macs() by<br /> replacing mlx5_query_mac_address() with ether_addr_copy() to get the<br /> local MAC address directly from netdev-&gt;dev_addr.<br /> <br /> The issue occurs because mlx5_query_mac_address() queries the hardware<br /> which involves mlx5_cmd_exec() that can sleep, but it is called from<br /> the mlx5e_ipsec_handle_event workqueue which runs in atomic context.<br /> <br /> The MAC address is already available in netdev-&gt;dev_addr, so no need<br /> to query hardware.
