Descripción
*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
mm/vma: do not try to unmap a VMA if mmap_prepare() invoked from mmap()<br />
<br />
The mmap_prepare hook functionality includes the ability to invoke<br />
mmap_prepare() from the mmap() hook of existing &#39;stacked&#39; drivers, that is<br />
ones which are capable of calling the mmap hooks of other drivers/file<br />
systems (e.g. overlayfs, shm).<br />
<br />
As part of the mmap_prepare action functionality, we deal with errors by<br />
unmapping the VMA should one arise. This works in the usual mmap_prepare<br />
case, as we invoke this action at the last moment, when the VMA is<br />
established in the maple tree.<br />
<br />
However, the mmap() hook passes a not-fully-established VMA pointer to the<br />
caller (which is the motivation behind the mmap_prepare() work), which is<br />
detached.<br />
<br />
So attempting to unmap a VMA in this state will be problematic, with the<br />
most obvious symptom being a warning in vma_mark_detached(), because the<br />
VMA is already detached.<br />
<br />
It&#39;s also unncessary - the mmap() handler will clean up the VMA on error.<br />
<br />
So to fix this issue, this patch propagates whether or not an mmap action<br />
is being completed via the compatibility layer or directly.<br />
<br />
If the former, then we do not attempt VMA cleanup, if the latter, then we<br />
do.<br />
<br />
This patch also updates the userland VMA tests to reflect the change.
