In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: dwc2: fix a devres leak in hw_enable upon suspend resume Each time the platform goes to low power, PM suspend / resume routines call: __dwc2_lowlevel_hw_enable -> devm_add_action_or_reset(). This adds a new devres each time. This may also happen at runtime, as dwc2_lowlevel_hw_enable() can be called from udc_start(). This can be seen with tracing:
- echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/dev/devres_log/enable
- go to low power
- cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace A new "ADD" entry is found upon each low power cycle: ... devres_log: 49000000.usb-otg ADD 82a13bba devm_action_release (8 bytes) ... devres_log: 49000000.usb-otg ADD 49889daf devm_action_release (8 bytes) ... A second issue is addressed here:
- regulator_bulk_enable() is called upon each PM cycle (suspend/resume).
- regulator_bulk_disable() never gets called.
So the reference count for these regulators constantly increase, by one
upon each low power cycle, due to missing regulator_bulk_disable() call
in __dwc2_lowlevel_hw_disable().
The original fix that introduced the devm_add_action_or_reset() call,
fixed an issue during probe, that happens due to other errors in
dwc2_driver_probe() -> dwc2_core_reset(). Then the probe fails without
disabling regulators, when dr_mode == USB_DR_MODE_PERIPHERAL.
Rather fix the error path: disable all the low level hardware in the
error path, by using the "hsotg->ll_hw_enabled" flag. Checking dr_mode
has been introduced to avoid a dual call to dwc2_lowlevel_hw_disable().
"ll_hw_enabled" should achieve the same (and is used currently in the
remove() routine).
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's DesignWare USB 2.0 (dwc2) driver. During system power management suspend and resume cycles, the driver repeatedly registers device actions without releasing them and fails to properly balance regulator usage. A local user could trigger these operations to cause continuous memory and resource leaks, ultimately leading to a Denial of Service (DoS) due to system resource exhaustion.
Отчет
A moderate severity flaw was found in the Linux kernel DesignWare USB 2.0 (dwc2) driver. On every power-management suspend/resume (low-power) cycle, the driver calls devm_add_action_or_reset() in __dwc2_lowlevel_hw_enable(), adding a new device-managed resource (devres) entry each time without releasing it, and regulator_bulk_enable() is invoked without a matching regulator_bulk_disable(), so regulator reference counts increase by one on each cycle. This can also occur at runtime because dwc2_lowlevel_hw_enable() is reachable from udc_start(). A local user with low privileges could trigger repeated low-power cycles to continuously leak kernel memory and regulator references, ultimately causing a denial of service through system resource exhaustion. The flaw affects availability only, with no impact on confidentiality or integrity (CVSS 3.1 score 5.5, AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H), matching the NIST severity for this CVE. Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 kernel and kernel-rt, and the Hosted OpenShift (ARO/OSD) offerings, are not affected because the vulnerable code is not present in those products. The Red Hat In-Vehicle OS 1 kernel (rhivos-1.0, rhivos-1.0.z, rhivos-1.1) is affected with the fix deferred; the residual risk is limited to availability, since exploiting the leak requires local access and repeated suspend/resume cycles to gradually exhaust memory and regulator resources.
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.
