The DEL-IP for L passes the D8 check and\ncalls sctp_assoc_rm_peer() on the transport that asconf->transport still\npoints at, freeing it (RCU-deferred). The following wildcard DEL-IP then\nreuses the now-dangling asconf->transport in sctp_assoc_set_primary() and\nsctp_assoc_del_nonprimary_peers(): set_primary() dereferences the freed\ntransport (->ipaddr, ->state) and plants the dangling pointer into\nasoc->peer.primary_path / active_path, and del_nonprimary_peers(), keeping\nonly the pointer that is no longer on the list, removes every real\ntransport, leaving the association with a transport_count of 0 and\nprimary_path/active_path pointing at freed memory.\n\nReject a DEL-IP that targets the transport the ASCONF is being processed\nagainst, mirroring the existing source-address guard, so the wildcard\nbranch can never reuse a freed transport." } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "net/sctp/sm_make_chunk.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "42e30bf3463cd37d73839376662cb79b4d5c416c", "lessThan": "fedeb4468987bcaff85fe3061de5ae052d414740", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "42e30bf3463cd37d73839376662cb79b4d5c416c", "lessThan": "74e8f3e7114f0e26d1b2c4c048044db9fcc27603", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "42e30bf3463cd37d73839376662cb79b4d5c416c", "lessThan": "85aca407c560aba81b5ce9d3d6cf94c74077d19b", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "42e30bf3463cd37d73839376662cb79b4d5c416c", "lessThan": "d136b29bf91dd8e3161281b87de597b7311d9462", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "42e30bf3463cd37d73839376662cb79b4d5c416c", "lessThan": "9b2854f86f0b56e9027d68e7a3fc909d1a9b566f", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" } ] }, { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "net/sctp/sm_make_chunk.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "2.6.25", "status": "affected" }, { "version": "0", "lessThan": "2.6.25", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.6.148", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.6.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.12.101", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.12.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.18.42", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.1.6", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.1.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.2-rc5", "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": "2.6.25", "versionEndExcluding": "6.6.148" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "2.6.25", "versionEndExcluding": "6.12.101" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "2.6.25", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.42" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "2.6.25", "versionEndExcluding": "7.1.6" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "2.6.25", "versionEndExcluding": "7.2-rc5" } ] } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/fedeb4468987bcaff85fe3061de5ae052d414740" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/74e8f3e7114f0e26d1b2c4c048044db9fcc27603" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/85aca407c560aba81b5ce9d3d6cf94c74077d19b" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d136b29bf91dd8e3161281b87de597b7311d9462" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9b2854f86f0b56e9027d68e7a3fc909d1a9b566f" } ], "title": "sctp: don't free the ASCONF's own transport in DEL-IP processing", "x_generator": { "engine": "bippy-1.2.0" } } } }
