"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ndmaengine: sf-pdma: Add multithread support for a DMA channel\n\nWhen we get a DMA channel and try to use it in multiple threads it\nwill cause oops and hanging the system.\n\n% echo 64 > /sys/module/dmatest/parameters/threads_per_chan\n% echo 10000 > /sys/module/dmatest/parameters/iterations\n% echo 1 > /sys/module/dmatest/parameters/run\n[ 89.480664] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual\n address 00000000000000a0\n[ 89.488725] Oops [#1]\n[ 89.494708] CPU: 2 PID: 1008 Comm: dma0chan0-copy0 Not tainted\n 5.17.0-rc5\n[ 89.509385] epc : vchan_find_desc+0x32/0x46\n[ 89.513553] ra : sf_pdma_tx_status+0xca/0xd6\n\nThis happens because of data race. Each thread rewrite channels's\ndescriptor as soon as device_prep_dma_memcpy() is called. It leads to the\nsituation when the driver thinks that it uses right descriptor that\nactually is freed or substituted for other one.\n\nWith current fixes a descriptor changes its value only when it has\nbeen used. A new descriptor is acquired from vc->desc_issued queue that\nis already filled with descriptors that are ready to be sent. Threads\nhave no direct access to DMA channel descriptor. Now it is just possible\nto queue a descriptor for further processing."

"value": "AV:L - The bug is in the SiFive/platform sf-pdma dmaengine driver and is reached only through local DMA channel operations (dmatest/sysfs or in-kernel DMA_MEMCPY clients such as async_tx), not via network packets or adjacent-link protocols.\nAC:L - The attacker can create the race by issuing concurrent transfers on the same channel (e.g. multiple dmatest threads or parallel async_tx/RAID memcpy submissions); both sides of the race are attacker-influenced, so success does not depend on conditions outside attacker control.\nPR:L - sf-pdma registers public DMA_MEMCPY channels (no DMA_PRIVATE), which async_tx and similar clients can share; concurrent I/O from an unprivileged local user can therefore hit the race without real root, so PR:L is the higher-severity defensible choice.\nUI:N - Exploitation requires only attacker-controlled concurrent DMA submissions; no separate victim action (mount, open, or admin confirmation) is needed.\nS:U - Impact is kernel descriptor UAF/corruption and DoS within the host kernel authority; it is not a VM escape or IOMMU boundary bypass.\nC:H - The race uses a descriptor that is freed or substituted for another transfer (commit: freed/substituted chan->desc), yielding a use-after-free/list-corruption primitive that can be leveraged for arbitrary kernel memory disclosure.\nI:H - Descriptor substitution/UAF enables wrong DMA address programming and heap reuse/control-flow hijacking primitives typical of kernel use-after-free exploitation, so integrity impact is High.\nA:H - The bug causes a documented kernel NULL-pointer oops in vchan_find_desc/sf_pdma_tx_status and can hang the system under multi-threaded DMA load."
