CVE-2024-57874

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: arm64: ptrace: fix partial SETREGSET for NT_ARM_TAGGED_ADDR_CTRL Currently tagged_addr_ctrl_set() doesn't initialize the temporary 'ctrl' variable, and a SETREGSET call with a length of zero will leave this uninitialized. Consequently tagged_addr_ctrl_set() will consume an arbitrary value, potentially leaking up to 64 bits of memory from the kernel stack. The read is limited to a specific slot on the stack, and the issue does not provide a write mechanism. As set_tagged_addr_ctrl() only accepts values where bits [63:4] zero and rejects other values, a partial SETREGSET attempt will randomly succeed or fail depending on the value of the uninitialized value, and the exposure is significantly limited. Fix this by initializing the temporary value before copying the regset from userspace, as for other regsets (e.g. NT_PRSTATUS, NT_PRFPREG, NT_ARM_SYSTEM_CALL). In the case of a zero-length write, the existing value of the tagged address ctrl will be retained. The NT_ARM_TAGGED_ADDR_CTRL regset is only visible in the user_aarch64_view used by a native AArch64 task to manipulate another native AArch64 task. As get_tagged_addr_ctrl() only returns an error value when called for a compat task, tagged_addr_ctrl_get() and tagged_addr_ctrl_set() should never observe an error value from get_tagged_addr_ctrl(). Add a WARN_ON_ONCE() to both to indicate that such an error would be unexpected, and error handlnig is not missing in either case.

Summary
  • (es) En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: arm64: ptrace: arreglo de SETREGSET parcial para NT_ARM_TAGGED_ADDR_CTRL Actualmente, tagged_addr_ctrl_set() no inicializa la variable temporal 'ctrl', y una llamada a SETREGSET con una longitud de cero la dejará sin inicializar. En consecuencia, tagged_addr_ctrl_set() consumirá un valor arbitrario, lo que potencialmente filtrará hasta 64 bits de memoria de la pila del kernel. La lectura está limitada a una ranura específica en la pila, y el problema no proporciona un mecanismo de escritura. Como set_tagged_addr_ctrl() solo acepta valores donde los bits [63:4] sean cero y rechaza otros valores, un intento de SETREGSET parcial tendrá éxito o fallará aleatoriamente dependiendo del valor del valor no inicializado, y la exposición es significativamente limitada. Solucione esto inicializando el valor temporal antes de copiar el conjunto de registros desde el espacio de usuario, como para otros conjuntos de registros (por ejemplo, NT_PRSTATUS, NT_PRFPREG, NT_ARM_SYSTEM_CALL). En el caso de una escritura de longitud cero, se conservará el valor existente de la dirección etiquetada ctrl. El conjunto de registros NT_ARM_TAGGED_ADDR_CTRL solo es visible en la vista user_aarch64_view utilizada por una tarea nativa de AArch64 para manipular otra tarea nativa de AArch64. Como get_tagged_addr_ctrl() solo devuelve un valor de error cuando se llama para una tarea de compatibilidad, tagged_addr_ctrl_get() y tagged_addr_ctrl_set() nunca deben observar un valor de error de get_tagged_addr_ctrl(). Agregue un WARN_ON_ONCE() a ambos para indicar que dicho error sería inesperado y que la gestión de errores no falta en ninguno de los casos.
