Descripción
*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
mm/damon/core: validate damos_quota_goal->nid for node_mem_{used,free}_bp<br />
<br />
Patch series "mm/damon/core: validate damos_quota_goal->nid".<br />
<br />
node_mem[cg]_{used,free}_bp DAMOS quota goals receive the node id. The<br />
node id is used for si_meminfo_node() and NODE_DATA() without proper<br />
validation. As a result, privileged users can trigger an out of bounds<br />
memory access using DAMON_SYSFS. Fix the issues.<br />
<br />
The issue was originally reported [1] with a fix by another author. The<br />
original author announced [2] that they will stop working including the<br />
fix that was still in the review stage. Hence I&#39;m restarting this.<br />
<br />
<br />
This patch (of 2):<br />
<br />
Users can set damos_quota_goal->nid with arbitrary value for<br />
node_mem_{used,free}_bp. But DAMON core is using those for<br />
si_meminfo_node() without the validation of the value. This can result in<br />
out of bounds memory access. The issue can actually triggered using DAMON<br />
user-space tool (damo), like below.<br />
<br />
$ sudo ./damo start --damos_action stat \<br />
--damos_quota_goal node_mem_used_bp 50% -1 \<br />
--damos_quota_interval 1s<br />
$ sudo dmesg<br />
[...]<br />
[ 65.565986] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000098<br />
<br />
Fix this issue by adding the validation of the given node. If an invalid<br />
node id is given, it returns 0% for used memory ratio, and 100% for free<br />
memory ratio.
