Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rxrpc: Only put the call ref if one was acquired
rxrpc_input_packet_on_conn() can process a to-client packet after the
current client call on the channel has already been torn down. In that
case chan->call is NULL, rxrpc_try_get_call() returns NULL and there is
no reference to drop.
The client-side implicit-end error path does not account for that and
unconditionally calls rxrpc_put_call(). This turns a protocol error
path into a kernel crash instead of rejecting the packet.
Only drop the call reference if one was actually acquired. Keep the
existing protocol error handling unchanged.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's rxrpc subsystem. This vulnerability occurs when the system processes a packet intended for a client after the client's call on the channel has already been terminated. An attacker could exploit this protocol error path, which improperly handles call references, to trigger a kernel crash, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS).
Отчет
RxRPC client path could put a call reference that was never taken when packets arrive after teardown; upstream balances refcounting. Red Hat advises patched kernels for AFS/rxrpc client workloads.
