There is no network or remote-peer input involved, and no physical device manipulation is needed.\nAC:L - The attacker drives both sides of the race by issuing back-to-back non-blocking atomic commits with a chosen framebuffer pattern, and `drm_atomic_helper_commit()` is documented to overlap the next commit's prepare/swap with the previous commit's `cleanup_planes()`, so the imbalance is produced on demand. It is reliable enough that it fired during ordinary desktop playback (the kodi trace in the commit message).\nPR:L - An unprivileged local user needs only an open FD on the primary DRM node plus DRM master, and `drm_master_open()` grants mastership to the first opener with no capability check — routine for the console user on Pi-class kiosk/signage/embedded systems via the `video` group or logind ACL. The paired `VC4_GEM_MADVISE` ioctl used to weaponize the underflow is `DRM_RENDER_ALLOW`, requiring even less.\nUI:N - The attacker triggers the imbalance entirely through its own sequence of atomic commit ioctls on its own framebuffers. No victim action, mount, or file open is required.\nS:U - The corruption stays within the kernel's own security authority — a kernel-managed GEM object refcount and its DMA-coherent backing store. No VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - The unbalanced decrement steals the `usecnt` reference held by an active scanout, an in-flight V3D job, or an exported dma-buf, letting `vc4_bo_purge()` call `dma_free_wc()` on a buffer still referenced by the HVS display list and the GPU — a use-after-free of DMA memory whose reallocated contents are then fetched and displayed. Per kernel scoring guidance a use-after-free is High confidentiality since the freed object's contents become attacker-observable.\nI:H - The same premature free leaves the V3D able to keep DMA-writing render targets into CMA memory that has been returned to the allocator and handed to another consumer, giving a write primitive into memory owned by an unrelated allocation. Use-after-free of a hardware-referenced buffer is exploitable memory corruption, so High.\nA:H - The immediate observed effect is a `refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free` WARN in `refcount_dec_not_one()`, which is a kernel panic on the many production and hardened kernels built with `panic_on_warn`. Purging a buffer still under scanout additionally corrupts the display and can oops the driver." } ] } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "drivers/gpu/drm/vc4/vc4_plane.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "b9f19259b84dc648f207a46f3581d15eeaedf4b6", "lessThan": "48bfb4b03c5ff6e1fa1dc73fb915e150b0968c40", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "b9f19259b84dc648f207a46f3581d15eeaedf4b6", "lessThan": "d6b2fe2db1d0927b2d7df5c763eba55d0e1def3c", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "b9f19259b84dc648f207a46f3581d15eeaedf4b6", "lessThan": "5343f724c912c77541029123f47ecd3d2ea63bdd", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "b9f19259b84dc648f207a46f3581d15eeaedf4b6", "lessThan": "5ee0d47dcf33efd8950b347dcf4d20bab12a3fa9", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" } ] }, { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "drivers/gpu/drm/vc4/vc4_plane.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "4.15", "status": "affected" }, { "version": "0", "lessThan": "4.15", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.1.86", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.1.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.6.27", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.6.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.8.6", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.8.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.9", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix" } ] } ], "cpeApplicability": [ { "nodes": [ { "operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [ { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "4.15", "versionEndExcluding": "6.1.86" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "4.15", "versionEndExcluding": "6.6.27" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "4.15", "versionEndExcluding": "6.8.6" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "4.15", "versionEndExcluding": "6.9" } ] } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/48bfb4b03c5ff6e1fa1dc73fb915e150b0968c40" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d6b2fe2db1d0927b2d7df5c763eba55d0e1def3c" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5343f724c912c77541029123f47ecd3d2ea63bdd" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5ee0d47dcf33efd8950b347dcf4d20bab12a3fa9" } ], "title": "drm/vc4: don't check if plane->state->fb == state->fb", "x_generator": { "engine": "bippy-1.2.0" } }, "adp": [ { "metrics": [ { "other": { "type": "ssvc", "content": { "timestamp": "2024-06-17T17:38:26.855561Z", "id": "CVE-2024-35932", "options": [ { "Exploitation": "none" }, { "Automatable": "no" }, { "Technical Impact": "partial" } ], "role": "CISA Coordinator", "version": "2.0.3" } } } ], "title": "CISA ADP Vulnrichment", "providerMetadata": { "orgId": "134c704f-9b21-4f2e-91b3-4a467353bcc0", "shortName": "CISA-ADP", "dateUpdated": "2024-06-17T17:40:48.456Z" } }, { "providerMetadata": { "orgId": "af854a3a-2127-422b-91ae-364da2661108", "shortName": "CVE", "dateUpdated": "2024-08-02T03:21:48.974Z" }, "title": "CVE Program Container", "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/48bfb4b03c5ff6e1fa1dc73fb915e150b0968c40", "tags": [ "x_transferred" ] }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d6b2fe2db1d0927b2d7df5c763eba55d0e1def3c", "tags": [ "x_transferred" ] }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5343f724c912c77541029123f47ecd3d2ea63bdd", "tags": [ "x_transferred" ] }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5ee0d47dcf33efd8950b347dcf4d20bab12a3fa9", "tags": [ "x_transferred" ] } ] } ] } }
