🇰🇷 한글 설명
Linux 커널의 Bluetooth RFCOMM 프로토콜에서 발생한 취약점으로, 지연된 설정(deferred setup) 처리 중 뮤텍스(rfcomm_mutex)를 획득하지 않아 발생합니다. 원격에서 DISC 패킷을 전송하면 세션이 NULL로 설정된 상태에서 참조를 시도하게 되어 커널의 일반 보호 오류(General Protection Fault) 및 Null Pointer Dereference를 유발합니다.
💡 쉬운 설명
블루투스 연결을 처리하는 과정에서 보안 잠금 장치를 사용하지 않아 발생하는 오류입니다. 해커가 특정 신호를 보내면 컴퓨터의 핵심 시스템(커널)이 갑자기 멈추거나 충돌할 수 있습니다.
🇺🇸 원문 (English)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: RFCOMM: take rfcomm_mutex for the deferred setup accept
rfcomm_sock_recvmsg() completes a deferred setup by calling
rfcomm_dlc_accept() without holding any RFCOMM lock:
if (test_and_clear_bit(RFCOMM_DEFER_SETUP, &d->flags)) {
rfcomm_dlc_accept(d);
return 0;
}
and rfcomm_dlc_accept() dereferences the session on its first line:
struct sock *sk = d->session->sock->sk;
Every other path that touches d->session runs under rfcomm_mutex:
rfcomm_dlc_open(), rfcomm_dlc_close(), rfcomm_dlc_exists(),
rfcomm_dlc_send_rpn(), and the RFCOMM thread through
rfcomm_process_sessions(). rfcomm_connect_ind() is even documented as
"called under rfcomm_lock()". This call site is the only one that skips
it.
The RFCOMM_DEFER_SETUP bit looks like it serialises the accept against
teardown, since __rfcomm_dlc_close() returns early when it wins the
test_and_clear. But rfcomm_recv_disc() forces the state first:
d->state = BT_CLOSED;
__rfcomm_dlc_close(d, err);
and the early return only covers BT_CONNECT, BT_CONFIG, BT_OPEN and
BT_CONNECT2. With the state already BT_CLOSED that switch does not
match, the bit is never consulted, and __rfcomm_dlc_close() falls
through to rfcomm_dlc_unlink(), which sets d->session = NULL.
So a remote DISC on a deferred dlc clears the session while leaving
RFCOMM_DEFER_SETUP set. The next recvmsg() then passes the
test_and_clear and dereferences a NULL session. No timing window is
needed: once the DISC has been processed, the dereference is
unconditional.
Give rfcomm_dlc_accept() the same shape as rfcomm_dlc_open() and
rfcomm_dlc_close(): an exported wrapper that takes rfcomm_mutex and
re-checks the session, around a __rfcomm_dlc_accept() that the two
in-core callers, which already hold the mutex, keep using.
Reproduced on a KASAN + PROVE_LOCKING kernel with a BR/EDR peer emulated
over /dev/vhci: the peer brings up an ACL link, opens L2CAP on the
RFCOMM PSM, starts a session, opens a dlc on a channel bound with
BT_DEFER_SETUP, and sends DISC after the socket is accepted. recv() on
the accepted socket then hits:
Oops: general protection fault
KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000010-0x0000000000000017]
RIP: 0010:rfcomm_dlc_accept+0x54/0x350
Call Trace:
rfcomm_sock_recvmsg+0x1cd/0x230
sock_recvmsg+0x166/0x1c0
__sys_recvfrom+0x20d/0x300
0x10 is the offset of sock in struct rfcomm_session. With this patch the
same run completes with recv() returning 0 and no report, and lockdep
stays quiet, confirming rfcomm_mutex is still taken before lock_sock on
this path as it is on the thread side.
