🇰🇷 한글 설명
Linux 커널의 TIPC 프로토콜 스택에서 네트워크 네임스페이스 해제 시 발생하는 Use-After-Free 취약점입니다. IDR 락을 해제한 후 tipc_conn_close()를 호출하는 과정에서 경쟁 상태(Race Condition)가 발생하여 이미 해제된 메모리에 접근할 수 있습니다.
💡 쉬운 설명
컴퓨터가 네트워크 연결을 정리하는 과정에서, 이미 삭제된 연결 정보를 다시 사용하려고 시도하여 오류가 발생하는 문제입니다. 이로 인해 시스템이 멈추거나 보안 문제가 생길 수 있습니다.
🇺🇸 원문 (English)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tipc: Fix use-after-free in tipc_conn_close().
syzbot reported a null-ptr-deref in tipc_conn_close() during netns
dismantle. [0]
tipc_topsrv_stop() iterates tipc_net(net)->topsrv->conn_idr and calls
tipc_conn_close() for each tipc_conn.
The problem is that tipc_conn_close() is called after releasing the
IDR lock.
At the same time, there might be tipc_conn_recv_work() running and it
could call tipc_conn_close() for the same tipc_conn and release its
last ->kref.
Once we release the IDR lock in tipc_topsrv_stop(), there is no
guarantee that the tipc_conn is alive.
Let's hold the ref before releasing the lock and put the ref after
tipc_conn_close() in tipc_topsrv_stop().
