🇰🇷 한글 설명
Linux 커널의 xfrm 인터페이스에서 collect_md 속성을 변경할 때 발생하는 Use-After-Free 취약점입니다. xfrmi_changelink() 함수가 특정 인터페이스에 대한 유효성 검사를 누락하여, 네트워크 네임스페이스 제거 시 중복 해제(Double Free)가 발생하고 커널 패닉을 유발할 수 있습니다.
💡 쉬운 설명
네트워크 설정 중 특정 규칙을 잘못 변경하면 컴퓨터의 핵심 시스템인 커널이 충돌하여 멈추거나 오류가 발생할 수 있는 문제입니다. 이는 시스템이 이미 사용 중인 메모리를 다시 지우려고 시도할 때 발생하는 오류입니다.
🇺🇸 원문 (English)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm: interface: fix use-after-free after changing collect_md xfrm interface
collect_md property on xfrm interfaces can only be set on device creation,
thus xfrmi_changelink() should fail when called on such interfaces.
The check to enforce this was done only in the case where the xi was
returned from xfrmi_locate() which doesn't look for the collect_md
interface, and thus the validation was never reached.
Calling changelink would thus errornously place the special interface xi
in the xfrmi_net->xfrmi hash, but since it also exists in the
xfrmi_net->collect_md_xfrmi pointer it would lead to a double free when
the net namespace was taken down [1].
Change the check to use the xi from netdev_priv which is available earlier
in the function to prevent changes in xfrm collect_md interfaces.
