In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: pm: fix memory leak from alloc-during-teardown race
mptcp_pm_destroy() empties msk->pm.anno_list and
msk->pm.userspace_pm_local_addr_list under msk->pm.lock during socket
teardown, dropping the lock between the two.
A concurrent userspace PM genl ANNOUNCE on the same msk holds a sock
reference via mptcp_token_get_sock() and, in
mptcp_pm_nl_announce_doit(), calls
mptcp_userspace_pm_append_new_local_addr() and
mptcp_pm_announced_alloc(). Both take msk->pm.lock briefly to add to
their respective lists. Because the genl handler holds a sock reference,
mptcp_pm_destroy() may run on the same msk via mptcp_disconnect(), which
invokes mptcp_destroy_common() without dropping the sock refcount,
before the handler completes.
If the lock acquisitions interleave such that mptcp_pm_destroy() empties
a list first, the later alloc adds its entry to a list head that nothing
else iterates for this msk, and the entry leaks. kmemleak reports both
mptcp_pm_add_addr objects (from mptcp_pm_announced_alloc()) and
mptcp_pm_addr_entry objects (from
mptcp_userspace_pm_append_new_local_addr()) under sustained concurrent
ANNOUNCE + close load against the userspace PM.
Add an MPTCP_PM_DESTROYING bit in msk->pm.status, set by
mptcp_pm_destroy() under pm.lock before the lists are emptied and
checked under pm.lock by the alloc paths. Either the alloc takes pm.lock
first, in which case its entry is on the list when mptcp_pm_destroy()
frees it; or mptcp_pm_destroy() takes pm.lock first, in which case the
later alloc observes the bit and refuses.
Found by an MPTCP protocol-flow harness extending BRF (arXiv:2305.08782).
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Multipath TCP (MPTCP) component. A race condition exists during socket teardown and concurrent userspace Multipath TCP (MPTCP) general announce operations. This can allow a local attacker to trigger a memory leak by causing an allocation to occur after a list has been emptied during teardown. Over time, this memory leak could lead to resource exhaustion and a Denial of Service (DoS).
