CVE-2024-35979 — raid1: fix use-after-free for original bio in raid1_write_request()

Affected: Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

raid1: fix use-after-free for original bio in raid1_write_request()

r1_bio->bios[] is used to record new bios that will be issued to underlying disks, however, in raid1_write_request(), r1_bio->bios[] will set to the original bio temporarily. Meanwhile, if blocked rdev is set, free_r1bio() will be called causing that all r1_bio->bios[] to be freed:

raid1_write_request() r1_bio = alloc_r1bio(mddev, bio); -> r1_bio->bios[] is NULL for (i = 0; i < disks; i++) -> for each rdev in conf // first rdev is normal r1_bio->bios[0] = bio; -> set to original bio // second rdev is blocked if (test_bit(Blocked, &rdev->flags)) break

if (blocked_rdev) free_r1bio() put_all_bios() bio_put(r1_bio->bios[0]) -> original bio is freed

Test scripts:

mdadm -CR /dev/md0 -l1 -n4 /dev/sd[abcd] --assume-clean fio -filename=/dev/md0 -ioengine=libaio -rw=write -bs=4k -numjobs=1 \ -iodepth=128 -name=test -direct=1 echo blocked > /sys/block/md0/md/rd2/state

Test result:

It was discovered that a race condition existed in the Bluetooth subsystem in the Linux kernel when modifying certain settings values through debugfs. A privileged local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2024-24857, CVE-2024-24858, CVE-2024-24859)

Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system. This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems: - ARM64 architecture; - RISC-V architecture; - S390 architecture; - x86 architecture; - Block layer subsystem; - Compute Acceleration Framework; - Accessibility subsystem; - Android drivers; - Drivers core; - Bluetooth drivers; - Clock framework and drivers; - Data acquisition framework and drivers; - Cryptographic API; - Buffer Sharing and Synchronization framework; - GPU drivers; - On-Chip Interconnect management framework; - IOMMU subsystem; - Multiple devices driver; - Media drivers; - VMware VMCI Driver; - Network drivers; - Microsoft Azure Network Adapter (MANA) driver; - Device tree and open firmware driver; - Chrome hardware platform drivers; - i.MX PM domains; - TI SCI PM domains driver; - S/390 drivers; - SCSI drivers; - SPI subsystem; - Thermal drivers; - TTY drivers; - USB subsystem; - Framebuffer layer; - BTRFS file system; - Network file system server daemon; - NILFS2 file system; - File systems infrastructure; - Pstore file system; - SMB…
