kernel: Linux kernel: Arbitrary code execution via userfaultfd shadow stack manipulation

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's userfaultfd mechanism. A local attacker with userfaultfd access could register on shadow stack Virtual Memory Areas VMAs. By discarding a page and injecting a page with chosen return addresses, an attacker could achieve arbitrary code execution. This...

kernel: drm/xe: always keep track of remap prev/next

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's drm/xe driver. During 3D workload processing, a user process can trigger an issue in the Virtual Memory Area VMA management when performing a rebind operation. This can lead to an invalid or overlapping VMA insertion, causing the system to enter an unstable...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability found in Linux 5.10, Linux 6.1, and Linux 5.15

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: uacce: Implement mremap in uaccevmops to return -EPERM. The current uaccevmops does not support the mremap operation of vmoperationsstruct. Implement .mremap to return -EPERM to remind users. The reason we need to explicitly...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability found in Linux 5.10, Linux 6.1

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xen/privcmd: fixed the double-free issue caused by VMA splitting privcmdvmops defines .close privcmdclose, but neither .maysplit nor .open. When the user space performs a partial munmap on a privcmd mapping, the kernel splits the...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability found in Linux 5.10, Linux 6.1, and Linux 5.15

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/hugetlb: Un-sharing of page tables occurs during VMA splitting, not before. Currently, splitvma triggers the un-sharing of hugetlb page tables through vmops-maysplit. This occurs before the VMA lock and rmap locks are taken –...

Astra Linux – Vulnerabilities in Linux, Linux-5.10, Linux-5.15, Linux-6.1

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Binder: Fix for use-after-free in shinker’s callback The mmap read lock is used during shinker’s callback, which means that using the alloc-vma pointer is not safe, as it could lead to a race condition with munmap. As of commit...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability found in Linux 5.10, Linux 6.1, and Linux 5.15

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: perf/core: Prevents VMA splitting of buffer mappings. The perfmmap code is careful to map the user page using mmap along with the ringbuffer and the auxiliary buffer, when the event supports this. Once the first mapping is...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability found in Linux 5.10, Linux 6.1, and Linux 5.15

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerabilities have been resolved: drm/i915/gt: Fixed an issue where the timeline was held on the VMA allocation error. The following errors have been sporadically reported by CI when a test unbinds the i915 driver on a ring submission platform: 239.330153...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability found in Linux 5.10, Linux 6.1, Linux, Linux 5.15

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerabilities have been resolved: x86/mm/pat: fixed the handling of VMPAT in COW mappings. The handling of VMPAT does not work correctly in COW mappings: the first PTE or, in fact, all PTEs can be replaced during write faults, causing them to point to anonymou...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 5.15

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Binder: Fix for UAF in alloc-vma during race with munmap cmllamas: Cleaned up the forward port from commit 015ac18be7de “Binder: Fix for UAF in alloc-vma during race with munmap” in 5.10 stable. This was necessary in the mainline...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 6.1

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mapletree: Fixed the MASTATEPREALLOC flag in maspreallocate. The preallocation flag is temporarily cleared when explicit requests for allocations are made. Existing allocations are already counted against the request through...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 6.1

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Fork: Defer linking of vma until vma is fully initialized. Thorvald reported a WARNING 1. The root cause of the issue lies in a race condition: - CPU 1: fork; - fork: Calls hugetlbfsfallocate. - dupmmap: Calls hugetlbfspunchhole....

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 6.1

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/i915/vma: Fixed a UAF issue during destruction that could lead to a race condition. Object debugging tools occasionally reported illegal attempts to free an i915 VMA object when parking a GT that was believed to be idle...
