Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Reject redirect helpers without a bpf_net_context The bpf_redirect*() helpers and skb_do_redirect() obtain the per-task bpf_redirect_info via bpf_net_ctx_get_ri(), which dereferences the current->bpf_net_context unconditionally. That context is established on the paths that run tc BPF such as sch_handle_{ingress,egress}(), except for the case where {cls,act}_bpf was attached to a proper qdisc. A program running from there reaches the NULL deref in two ways:
- It calls bpf_redirect() directly, which dereferences the context at
the top of the helper:
tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1: red limit 1MB min 10KB max 20KB
avpkt 1000 burst 100 qevent early_drop block 10 tc filter add block 10 pref 1 bpf obj redirect.o - It simply returns TC_ACT_REDIRECT without helper call: tcf_qevent_handle()
then dispatches to skb_do_redirect(), which dereferences the context
Rather than extending bpf_net_context management into the qdisc path,
make the redirect helpers refuse to operate when no context exists, and
have tcf_qevent_handle() drop a TC_ACT_REDIRECT verdict instead of
calling skb_do_redirect(). Previous behaviour was a crash, so nothing
regresses by not supporting it.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. The BPF (Berkeley Packet Filter) redirect helpers, specificallybpf_redirect*()andskb_do_redirect(), can attempt to dereference a null pointer if abpf_net_contextis not established. This can occur when certain BPF programs are attached to a network queueing discipline (qdisc). A local attacker could exploit this to trigger a null pointer dereference, leading to a system crash and a Denial of Service (DoS).
