2008-01-16wait_task_stopped: Check p->exit_state instead of TASK_TRACED (CVE-2007-5500)Roland McGrath
patch a3474224e6a01924be40a8255636ea5522c1023a in mainline The original meaning of the old test (p->state > TASK_STOPPED) was "not dead", since it was before TASK_TRACED existed and before the state/exit_state split. It was a wrong correction in commit 14bf01bb0599c89fc7f426d20353b76e12555308 to make this test for TASK_TRACED instead. It should have been changed when TASK_TRACED was introducted and again when exit_state was introduced. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@kernel.org>
2008-01-16limit minixfs printks on corrupted dir i_size (CVE-2006-6058)Eric Sandeen
First reported at http://projects.info-pull.com/mokb/MOKB-17-11-2006.html Essentially a corrupted minix dir inode reporting a very large i_size will loop for a very long time in minix_readdir, minix_find_entry, etc, because on EIO they just move on to try the next page. This is under the BKL, printk-storming as well. This can lock up the machine for a very long time. Simply ratelimiting the printks gets things back under control.

2008-01-16Use access mode instead of open flags to determine needed permissions ↵Linus Torvalds
(CVE-2008-0001) patch 974a9f0b47da74e28f68b9c8645c3786aa5ace1a in mainline Way back when (in commit 834f2a4a1554dc5b2598038b3fe8703defcbe467, aka "VFS: Allow the filesystem to return a full file pointer on open intent" to be exact), Trond changed the open logic to keep track of the original flags to a file open, in order to pass down the the intent of a dentry lookup to the low-level filesystem. However, when doing that reorganization, it changed the meaning of namei_flags, and thus inadvertently changed the test of access mode for directories (and RO filesystem) to use the wrong flag. So fix those test back to use access mode ("acc_mode") rather than the open flag ("flag"). Issue noticed by Bill Roman at Datalight.

2008-01-16[IPSEC]: Avoid undefined shift operation when testing algorithm IDHerbert Xu
[ Upstream commit: f398035f2dec0a6150833b0bc105057953594edb ] The aalgos/ealgos fields are only 32 bits wide. However, af_key tries to test them with the expression 1 << id where id can be as large as 253. This produces different behaviour on different architectures. The following patch explicitly checks whether ID is greater than 31 and fails the check if that's the case. We cannot easily extend the mask to be longer than 32 bits due to exposure to user-space. Besides, this whole interface is obsolete anyway in favour of the xfrm_user interface which doesn't use this bit mask in templates (well not within the kernel anyway).

2008-01-06[SCSI] aacraid: fix security weaknessAlan Cox
Actually there are several but one is trivially fixed 1. FSACTL_GET_NEXT_ADAPTER_FIB ioctl does not lock dev->fib_list but needs to 2. Ditto for FSACTL_CLOSE_GET_ADAPTER_FIB 3. It is possible to construct an attack via the SRB ioctls where the user obtains assorted elevated privileges. Various approaches are possible, the trivial ones being things like writing to the raw media via scsi commands and the swap image of other executing programs with higher privileges. So the ioctls should be CAP_SYS_RAWIO - at least all the FIB manipulating ones. This is a bandaid fix for #3 but probably the ioctls should grow their own capable checks. The other two bugs need someone competent in that driver to fix them.

2007-11-13PPPOE: fix memory leak (local DoS) (CVE-2007-2525)Florian Zumbiehl
This patch fixes a memory leak when a PPPoE socket is release()d after it has been connect()ed, but before the PPPIOCGCHAN ioctl ever has been called on it. This is somewhat of a security problem, too, since PPPoE sockets can be created by any user, so any user can easily allocate all the machine's RAM to non-swappable address space and thus DoS the system. Is there any specific reason for PPPoE sockets being available to any unprivileged process, BTW? After all, you need a packet socket for the discovery stage anyway, so it's unlikely that any unprivileged process will ever need to create a PPPoE socket, no? Allocating all session IDs for a known AC is a kind of DoS, too, after all - with Juniper ERXes, this is really easy, actually, since they don't ever assign session ids above 8000 ...

2007-11-13[PKT_SCHED] CLS_U32: Fix endianness problem with u32 classifier hash masks.Radu Rendec
While trying to implement u32 hashes in my shaping machine I ran into a possible bug in the u32 hash/bucket computing algorithm (net/sched/cls_u32.c). The problem occurs only with hash masks that extend over the octet boundary, on little endian machines (where htonl() actually does something). Let's say that I would like to use 0x3fc0 as the hash mask. This means 8 contiguous "1" bits starting at b6. With such a mask, the expected (and logical) behavior is to hash any address in, for instance, 192.168.0.0/26 in bucket 0, then any address in 192.168.0.64/26 in bucket 1, then 192.168.0.128/26 in bucket 2 and so on. This is exactly what would happen on a big endian machine, but on little endian machines, what would actually happen with current implementation is 0x3fc0 being reversed (into 0xc03f0000) by htonl() in the userspace tool and then applied to 192.168.x.x in the u32 classifier. When shifting right by 16 bits (rank of first "1" bit in the reversed mask) and applying the divisor mask (0xff for divisor 256), what would actually remain is 0x3f applied on the "168" octet of the address. One could say is this can be easily worked around by taking endianness into account in userspace and supplying an appropriate mask (0xfc03) that would be turned into contiguous "1" bits when reversed (0x03fc0000). But the actual problem is the network address (inside the packet) not being converted to host order, but used as a host-order value when computing the bucket. Let's say the network address is written as n31 n30 ... n0, with n0 being the least significant bit. When used directly (without any conversion) on a little endian machine, it becomes n7 ... n0 n8 ..n15 etc in the machine's registers. Thus bits n7 and n8 would no longer be adjacent and 192.168.64.0/26 and 192.168.128.0/26 would no longer be consecutive. The fix is to apply ntohl() on the hmask before computing fshift, and in u32_hash_fold() convert the packet data to host order before shifting down by fshift.

Mingming later sent the same patch, saying: We are running SDET benchmark and saw double free issue for ext3 extended attributes block, which complains the same xattr block already being freed (in ext3_xattr_release_block()). The problem could also been triggered by multiple threads loop untar/rm a kernel tree. The race is caused by missing a memory barrier at unlock_buffer() before the lock bit being cleared, resulting in possible concurrent h_refcounter update. That causes a reference counter leak, then later leads to the double free that we have seen. Inside unlock_buffer(), there is a memory barrier is placed *after* the lock bit is being cleared, however, there is no memory barrier *before* the bit is cleared. On some arch the h_refcount update instruction and the clear bit instruction could be reordered, thus leave the critical section re-entered. The race is like this: For example, if the h_refcount is initialized as 1, cpu 0: cpu1 -------------------------------------- ----------------------------------- lock_buffer() /* test_and_set_bit */ clear_buffer_locked(bh); lock_buffer() /* test_and_set_bit */ h_refcount = h_refcount+1; /* = 2*/ h_refcount = h_refcount + 1; /*= 2 */ clear_buffer_locked(bh); .... ...... We lost a h_refcount here. We need a memory barrier before the buffer head lock bit being cleared to force the order of the two writes. Please apply.

2007-11-02[SNAP]: Check packet length before readingHerbert Xu
The snap_rcv code reads 5 bytes so we should make sure that we have 5 bytes in the head before proceeding. Based on diagnosis and fix by Evgeniy Polyakov, reported by Alan J. Wylie. Patch also kills the skb->sk assignment before kfree_skb since it's redundant. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

2007-11-02[NET]: gen_estimator deadlock fixRanko Zivojnovic
-Fixes ABBA deadlock noted by Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>: > There is at least one ABBA deadlock, est_timer() does: > read_lock(&est_lock) > spin_lock(e->stats_lock) (which is dev->queue_lock) > > and qdisc_destroy calls htb_destroy under dev->queue_lock, which > calls htb_destroy_class, then gen_kill_estimator and this > write_locks est_lock. To fix the ABBA deadlock the rate estimators are now kept on an rcu list. -The est_lock changes the use from protecting the list to protecting the update to the 'bstat' pointer in order to avoid NULL dereferencing. -The 'interval' member of the gen_estimator structure removed as it is not needed.

2007-11-02[ICMP]: Fix icmp_errors_use_inbound_ifaddr sysctlPatrick McHardy
Currently when icmp_errors_use_inbound_ifaddr is set and an ICMP error is sent after the packet passed through ip_output(), an address from the outgoing interface is chosen as ICMP source address since skb->dev doesn't point to the incoming interface anymore. Fix this by doing an interface lookup on rt->dst.iif and using that device. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

Normally a serial Bluetooth device is opened, TIOSETD'ed to N_HCI line discipline, HCIUARTSETPROTO'ed and finally closed. In case the device fails to HCIUARTSETPROTO, closing it produces a NULL pointer dereference.

2007-11-02CIFS should honour umask (CVE-2007-3740)Steve French
This patch makes CIFS honour a process' umask like other filesystems. Of course the server is still free to munge the permissions if it wants to; but the client will send the "right" permissions to begin with. A few caveats: 1) It only applies to filesystems that have CAP_UNIX (aka support unix extensions) 2) It applies the correct mode to the follow up CIFSSMBUnixSetPerms() after remote creation When mode to CIFS/NTFS ACL mapping is complete we can do the same thing for that case for servers which do not support the Unix Extensions.
