Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: bcm: fix locking for bcm_op runtime updates
Commit c2aba69d0c36 ("can: bcm: add locking for bcm_op runtime updates")
added a locking for some variables that can be modified at runtime when
updating the sending bcm_op with a new TX_SETUP command in bcm_tx_setup().
Usually the RX_SETUP only handles and filters incoming traffic with one
exception: When the RX_RTR_FRAME flag is set a predefined CAN frame is
sent when a specific RTR frame is received. Therefore the rx bcm_op uses
bcm_can_tx() which uses the bcm_tx_lock that was only initialized in
bcm_tx_setup(). Add the missing spin_lock_init() when allocating the
bcm_op in bcm_rx_setup() to handle the RTR case properly.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Controller Area Network (CAN) Broadcast Manager (BCM) module. When the RX_RTR_FRAME flag is set and a specific Remote Transmission Request (RTR) frame is received, the bcm_tx_lock was not properly initialized in the bcm_rx_setup() function. This missing initialization of the lock could lead to a race condition, potentially allowing a local attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by triggering system instability.
Отчет
This flaw affects systems using CAN bus with the BCM (Broadcast Manager) socket. The missing spin_lock_init() for bcm_tx_lock in bcm_rx_setup() causes issues when RX_RTR_FRAME is used, as bcm_can_tx() accesses the uninitialized lock. Requires CAN interface and BCM socket usage with RTR frames.
