🇰🇷 한글 설명
Linux 커널의 cachefiles 구성 요소에서 slab-use-after-free 취약점이 발견되었습니다. 특정 조건에서 볼륨이 해제된 후 해당 메모리에 접근하려고 시도하여 시스템 불안정성이나 권한 상승을 초래할 수 있습니다.
💡 쉬운 설명
컴퓨터가 이미 사용이 끝나서 지워버린 메모리 공간을 다시 사용하려고 할 때 발생하는 오류입니다. 이로 인해 시스템이 갑자기 멈추거나 해커가 시스템 제어권을 얻을 위험이 있습니다.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cachefiles: fix slab-use-after-free in cachefiles_withdraw_cookie()
We got the following issue in our fault injection stress test:

Following is the process that triggers the issue:
p1 | p2
------------------------------------------------------------
fscache_begin_lookup
fscache_begin_volume_access
fscache_cache_is_live(fscache_cache)
cachefiles_daemon_release
cachefiles_put_unbind_pincount
cachefiles_daemon_unbind
cachefiles_withdraw_cache
fscache_withdraw_cache
fscache_set_cache_state(cache, FSCACHE_CACHE_IS_WITHDRAWN);
cachefiles_withdraw_objects(cache)
fscache_wait_for_objects(fscache)
atomic_read(&fscache_cache->object_count) == 0
fscache_perform_lookup
cachefiles_lookup_cookie
cachefiles_alloc_object
refcount_set(&object->ref, 1);
object->volume = volume
fscache_count_object(vcookie->cache);
atomic_inc(&fscache_cache->object_count)
cachefiles_withdraw_volumes
cachefiles_withdraw_volume
fscache_withdraw_volume
__cachefiles_free_volume
kfree(cachefiles_volume)
fscache_cookie_state_machine
cachefiles_withdraw_cookie
cache = object->volume->cache;
// cachefiles_volume UAF !!!
After setting FSCACHE_CACHE_IS_WITHDRAWN, wait for all the cookie lookups
to complete first, and then wait for fscache_cache->object_count == 0 to
avoid the cookie exiting after the volume has been freed and triggering
the above issue. Therefore call fscache_withdraw_volume() before calling
cachefiles_withdraw_objects().
This way, after setting FSCACHE_CACHE_IS_WITHDRAWN, only the following two
cases will occur:
1) fscache_begin_lookup fails in fscache_begin_volume_access().
2) fscache_withdraw_volume() will ensure that fscache_count_object() has
been executed before calling fscache_wait_for_objects().
