Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: configfs: fix a race in configfs_{,un}register_subsystem() When configfs_register_subsystem() or configfs_unregister_subsystem() is executing link_group() or unlink_group(), it is possible that two processes add or delete list concurrently. Some unfortunate interleavings of them can cause kernel panic. One of cases is: A --> B --> C --> D A <-- B <-- C <-- D
| delete list_head *B | delete list_head *C |
|---|---|
| configfs_unregister_subsystem | configfs_unregister_subsystem |
| unlink_group | unlink_group |
| unlink_obj | unlink_obj |
| list_del_init | list_del_init |
| __list_del_entry | __list_del_entry |
| __list_del | __list_del |
| // next == C | |
| next->prev = prev | |
| next->prev = prev | |
| prev->next = next | |
| // prev == B | |
| prev->next = next | |
| Fix this by adding mutex when calling link_group() or unlink_group(), | |
| but parent configfs_subsystem is NULL when config_item is root. | |
| So I create a mutex configfs_subsystem_mutex. |
Отчет
Following issue marked as moderate with "not affected" for Red Hat Enterprise Linux, as it is not vulnerable to this CVE. This is because the CVE does not impact the versions or configurations of the Linux kernel used in Red Hat's distributions. Additionally, some RHEL versions may be marked as "will not fix" due to the minimal impact of the issue, and no fix will be provided.
Меры по смягчению последствий
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base or stability.
