In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/siw: Fix immediate work request flush to completion queue
Correctly set send queue element opcode during immediate work request
flushing in post sendqueue operation, if the QP is in ERROR state.
An undefined ocode value results in out-of-bounds access to an array
for mapping the opcode between siw internal and RDMA core representation
in work completion generation. It resulted in a KASAN BUG report
of type 'global-out-of-bounds' during NFSoRDMA testing.
This patch further fixes a potential case of a malicious user which may
write undefined values for completion queue elements status or opcode,
if the CQ is memory mapped to user land. It avoids the same out-of-bounds
access to arrays for status and opcode mapping as described above.
A flaw was identified in the Linux kernel RDMA (siw) implementation where an undefined opcode value could be used during immediate work request flushing while in an error state. The send queue element opcode was not correctly set, which could lead to an out-of-bounds access when mapping between the SoftiWARP internal representation and the RDMA core representation in work completion generation. On some test configurations (e.g., NFSoRDMA testing), this resulted in a KASAN BUG report of type global-out-of-bounds. Additionally, a malicious local user with access to a memory-mapped completion queue (CQ) could supply undefined values for completion queue element status or opcode, leading to similar out-of-bounds array access.
Меры по смягчению последствий
To mitigate this issue, prevent the siw kernel module from loading. Create a file named /etc/modprobe.d/disable-siw.conf with the following content:
install siw /bin/true
After creating the file, regenerate the initramfs and reboot the system for the changes to take effect. This mitigation may impact functionality that relies on the Shared-memory InfiniBand Work (siw) component.
