In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/ucma: Lock the handler in ucma_write_cm_event()
ctx->file may only be changed under the handler lock and the xa_lock, which
is what stops uevents being queued for a ctx while ucma_migrate_id() moves
it to another file. The CM core takes that lock before invoking
ucma_event_handler(), but the write() paths that queue uevents themselves
do not.
ucma_write_cm_event() re-reads ctx->file for each of its four dereferences,
so ucma_migrate_id() can swap it mid-sequence:
mutex_lock(&ctx->file->mut);/* file A /
list_add_tail(&uevent->list, &ctx->file->event_list);/ file B /
mutex_unlock(&ctx->file->mut);/ file B /
wake_up_interruptible(&ctx->file->poll_wait);/ file B */
The window is the mutex_lock() itself: the writer sleeps in it while the
migration reassigns ctx->file. The list_add_tail() then runs on file B's
event_list holding only file A's mutex:
list_add corruption. prev->next should be next (ffff888101320f30),
but was ffff88814a08c418. (prev=ffff88814a075c18).
kernel BUG at lib/list_debug.c:32!
Call Trace:
ucma_write_cm_event+0x36e/0x5e0
and file A's mut is left held forever, wedging its next writer in D state.
The uevent is also stranded on a list ucma_cleanup_ctx_events() will not
walk, so it outlives its context. /dev/infiniband/rdma_cm is 0666 and no
RDMA device is involved, so an unprivileged user reaches all of this.
Take the handler lock, as ucma_cleanup_mc_events() does; ctx->cm_id is
pinned by the ucma_get_ctx() reference.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's RDMA/ucma component. A race condition exists in the ucma_write_cm_event() function where it re-reads a critical file pointer multiple times without proper locking. This allows another function, ucma_migrate_id(), to change the file pointer mid-operation. An unprivileged local user can exploit this to cause list corruption, trigger a kernel crash, and leave a mutex locked indefinitely, resulting in a denial of service.
