  2. Vulnerabilities (CVE)
  3. CVE-2022-49429
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/hfi1: Prevent panic when SDMA is disabled If the hfi1 module is loaded with HFI1_CAP_SDMA off, a call to hfi1_write_iter() will dereference a NULL pointer and panic. A typical stack frame is: sdma_select_user_engine [hfi1] hfi1_user_sdma_process_request [hfi1] hfi1_write_iter [hfi1] do_iter_readv_writev do_iter_write vfs_writev do_writev do_syscall_64 The fix is to test for SDMA in hfi1_write_iter() and fail the I/O with EINVAL.

Summary
  • (es) En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: RDMA/hfi1: Evitar pánico cuando SDMA está deshabilitado Si el módulo hfi1 se carga con HFI1_CAP_SDMA desactivado, una llamada a hfi1_write_iter() desreferenciará un puntero NULL y generará pánico. Un marco de pila típico es: sdma_select_user_engine [hfi1] hfi1_user_sdma_process_request [hfi1] hfi1_write_iter [hfi1] do_iter_readv_writev do_iter_write vfs_writev do_writev do_syscall_64 La solución es probar SDMA en hfi1_write_iter() y fallar la E/S con EINVAL.
