In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: avoid race between device unregistration and ethnl ops The following trace can be seen if a device is being unregistered while its number of channels are being modified. DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(lock->magic != lock) WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 3754 at kernel/locking/mutex.c:564 __mutex_lock+0xc8a/0x1120 CPU: 3 UID: 0 PID: 3754 Comm: ethtool Not tainted 6.13.0-rc6+ #771 RIP: 0010:__mutex_lock+0xc8a/0x1120 Call Trace: ethtool_check_max_channel+0x1ea/0x880 ethnl_set_channels+0x3c3/0xb10 ethnl_default_set_doit+0x306/0x650 genl_family_rcv_msg_doit+0x1e3/0x2c0 genl_rcv_msg+0x432/0x6f0 netlink_rcv_skb+0x13d/0x3b0 genl_rcv+0x28/0x40 netlink_unicast+0x42e/0x720 netlink_sendmsg+0x765/0xc20 __sys_sendto+0x3ac/0x420 __x64_sys_sendto+0xe0/0x1c0 do_syscall_64+0x95/0x180 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x76/0x7e This is because unregister_netdevice_many_notify might run before the rtnl lock section of ethnl operations, eg. set_channels in the above example. In this example the rss lock would be destroyed by the device unregistration path before being used again, but in general running ethnl operations while dismantle has started is not a good idea. Fix this by denying any operation on devices being unregistered. A check was already there in ethnl_ops_begin, but not wide enough. Note that the same issue cannot be seen on the ioctl version (__dev_ethtool) because the device reference is retrieved from within the rtnl lock section there. Once dismantle started, the net device is unlisted and no reference will be found.
Отчет
A low severity race condition was found in the Linux kernel networking subsystem in the ethtool netlink (ethnl) operations path. When a network device is being unregistered while its configuration is concurrently modified (for example, changing the number of channels via ethtool), the ethnl operation can run after the device unregistration path has already destroyed the associated locks (such as the rss lock), producing a kernel WARNING and operating on an already-destroyed lock, which can result in a denial of service. Triggering this issue requires local access with network administration privileges and winning a narrow race window, and the impact is limited to system availability. For these reasons Red Hat rated this flaw Low severity (CVSS 4.7, AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H), which is meaningfully lower than the upstream CVE record's rating that assumes confidentiality and integrity impacts. According to the current assessment, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and 7 are not affected by this flaw, and the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 streams are recorded as out of support scope. Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10, and Red Hat In-Vehicle OS are affected, and fixes for these products are currently deferred given the low severity of the issue. The residual risk is limited to a local denial of service that requires privileged local access and a narrow race between device unregistration and ethtool operations.
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.
