In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fsnotify: Fix ordering of iput() and watched_objects decrement
Ensure the superblock is kept alive until we're done with iput().
Holding a reference to an inode is not allowed unless we ensure the
superblock stays alive, which fsnotify does by keeping the
watched_objects count elevated, so iput() must happen before the
watched_objects decrement.
This can lead to a UAF of something like sb->s_fs_info in tmpfs, but the
UAF is hard to hit because race orderings that oops are more likely, thanks
to the CHECK_DATA_CORRUPTION() block in generic_shutdown_super().
Also, ensure that fsnotify_put_sb_watched_objects() doesn't call
fsnotify_sb_watched_objects() on a superblock that may have already been
freed, which would cause a UAF read of sb->s_fsnotify_info.

Summary | (es) En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: fsnotify: Arreglar el orden de iput() y el decremento de watching_objects Asegurarse de que el superbloque se mantenga activo hasta que terminemos con iput(). No se permite mantener una referencia a un inodo a menos que aseguremos que el superbloque se mantenga activo, lo que fsnotify hace manteniendo elevado el conteo de watching_objects, por lo que iput() debe ocurrir antes del decremento de watching_objects. Esto puede llevar a un UAF de algo como sb->s_fs_info en tmpfs, pero el UAF es difícil de alcanzar porque las órdenes de ejecución que oops son más probables, gracias al bloque CHECK_DATA_CORRUPTION() en generic_shutdown_super(). Además, asegúrese de que fsnotify_put_sb_watched_objects() no llame a fsnotify_sb_watched_objects() en un superbloque que ya puede haber sido liberado, lo que causaría una lectura UAF de sb->s_fsnotify_info. | |
