"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nbonding: fix missed rcu protection\n\nWhen removing the rcu_read_lock in bond_ethtool_get_ts_info() as\ndiscussed [1], I didn't notice it could be called via setsockopt,\nwhich doesn't hold rcu lock, as syzbot pointed:\n\n stack backtrace:\n CPU: 0 PID: 3599 Comm: syz-executor317 Not tainted 5.18.0-rc5-syzkaller-01392-g01f4685797a5 #0\n Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 01/01/2011\n Call Trace:\n <TASK>\n __dump_stack lib/dump_stack.c:88 [inline]\n dump_stack_lvl+0xcd/0x134 lib/dump_stack.c:106\n bond_option_active_slave_get_rcu include/net/bonding.h:353 [inline]\n bond_ethtool_get_ts_info+0x32c/0x3a0 drivers/net/bonding/bond_main.c:5595\n __ethtool_get_ts_info+0x173/0x240 net/ethtool/common.c:554\n ethtool_get_phc_vclocks+0x99/0x110 net/ethtool/common.c:568\n sock_timestamping_bind_phc net/core/sock.c:869 [inline]\n sock_set_timestamping+0x3a3/0x7e0 net/core/sock.c:916\n sock_setsockopt+0x543/0x2ec0 net/core/sock.c:1221\n __sys_setsockopt+0x55e/0x6a0 net/socket.c:2223\n __do_sys_setsockopt net/socket.c:2238 [inline]\n __se_sys_setsockopt net/socket.c:2235 [inline]\n __x64_sys_setsockopt+0xba/0x150 net/socket.c:2235\n do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:50 [inline]\n do_syscall_64+0x35/0xb0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:80\n entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xae\n RIP: 0033:0x7f8902c8eb39\n\nFix it by adding rcu_read_lock and take a ref on the real_dev.\nSince dev_hold() and dev_put() can take NULL these days, we can\nskip checking if real_dev exist.\n\n[1] https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/27565.1642742439@famine/"

{
"lang": "en",
"value": "AV:L - The bug is reached via setsockopt(SO_TIMESTAMPING with SOF_TIMESTAMPING_BIND_PHC) on a socket bound to a bonding device, flowing through sock_timestamping_bind_phc → ethtool_get_phc_vclocks → bond_ethtool_get_ts_info. This is a local syscall path, not packet- or network-facing processing.\nAC:L - An attacker who can create and manage a bond (e.g. via user namespaces) controls both sides of the race: repeatedly calling setsockopt while releasing/changing the active slave. Missing RCU protection lets synchronize_rcu in bond_release complete and free struct slave while the reader still uses it.\nPR:L - SO_TIMESTAMPING requires no capability, and the first SO_BINDTODEVICE needs none. Creating/configuring a bond and enslaving interfaces needs only CAP_NET_ADMIN in the network namespace's user_ns, which is available to an unprivileged user via user namespaces.\nUI:N - Exploitation requires only attacker-controlled syscalls (setsockopt and netlink bond/slave operations); no victim action is needed.\nS:U - This is a standard in-kernel UAF/RCU bug in the bonding driver that can escalate privileges within the same kernel authority; it does not cross VM, IOMMU, or other security boundaries.\nC:H - Without RCU protection, concurrent slave release can free struct slave while bond_option_active_slave_get_rcu still reads slave->dev and later uses real_dev, yielding a use-after-free that can be leveraged for arbitrary kernel memory disclosure.\nI:H - The same UAF on the active-slave path enables heap reuse and control of freed object contents, which is exploitable for arbitrary write / control-flow hijacking in the kernel.\nA:H - Use-after-free of the slave/netdev path can cause kernel oops/panic, and even the unprotected rcu_dereference alone triggers lockdep warnings; availability impact is therefore High."
