In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rxrpc: Fix call timer start racing with call destruction
The rxrpc_call struct has a timer used to handle various timed events
relating to a call. This timer can get started from the packet input
routines that are run in softirq mode with just the RCU read lock held.
Unfortunately, because only the RCU read lock is held - and neither ref or
other lock is taken - the call can start getting destroyed at the same time
a packet comes in addressed to that call. This causes the timer - which
was already stopped - to get restarted. Later, the timer dispatch code may
then oops if the timer got deallocated first.
Fix this by trying to take a ref on the rxrpc_call struct and, if
successful, passing that ref along to the timer. If the timer was already
running, the ref is discarded.
The timer completion routine can then pass the ref along to the call's work
item when it queues it. If the timer or work item where already
queued/running, the extra ref is discarded.
CVE-2022-49149 is a vulnerability in the Linux kernel's RxRPC (Remote Execution RPC) subsystem, which is used for remote procedure calls over the network. The issue stems from a race condition in the handling of call timers within the rxrpc_call structure. Specifically, when packet input routines operate in softirq mode with only a Read-Copy-Update (RCU) read lock held, a timer associated with a call can be started while the call is simultaneously being destroyed. This situation can lead to the timer being restarted after it has been deallocated, resulting in a null pointer dereference and potentially causing a system crash.
