Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: isotp: fix tx.buf use-after-free in isotp_sendmsg()
isotp_sendmsg() uses only cmpxchg() on so->tx.state to serialize access
to so->tx.buf. isotp_release() waits for ISOTP_IDLE via
wait_event_interruptible() and then calls kfree(so->tx.buf).
If a signal interrupts the wait_event_interruptible() inside close()
while tx.state is ISOTP_SENDING, the loop exits early and release
proceeds to force ISOTP_SHUTDOWN and continues to kfree(so->tx.buf)
while sendmsg may still be reading so->tx.buf for the final CAN frame
in isotp_fill_dataframe().
The so->tx.buf can be allocated once when the standard tx.buf length needs
to be extended. Move the kfree() of this potentially extended tx.buf to
sk_destruct time when either isotp_sendmsg() and isotp_release() are done.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Controller Area Network (CAN) ISO-TP (isotp) module. This vulnerability, known as a use-after-free, occurs when the system attempts to free a memory region while it is still being used. A local attacker could trigger this condition by sending a signal that interrupts a specific waiting process during a close operation. This can lead to memory corruption, potentially causing the system to crash (denial of service) or behave unpredictably.
Отчет
This is an Important use-after-free flaw in the Linux kernel's Controller Area Network (CAN) ISO-TP module. A local attacker can trigger this vulnerability by interrupting a specific waiting process, potentially leading to memory corruption and system instability or denial of service. The impact is significant due to the potential for system compromise from a local user.
Меры по смягчению последствий
Systems which do not require it can blocklist the can_isotp module to prevent it from being loaded. See https://access.redhat.com/solutions/41278 for more information.
