"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nbrd: defer automatic disk creation until module initialization succeeds\n\nMy colleague Wupeng found the following problems during fault injection:\n\nBUG: unable to handle page fault for address: fffffbfff809d073\nPGD 6e648067 P4D 123ec8067 PUD 123ec4067 PMD 100e38067 PTE 0\nOops: Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN NOPTI\nCPU: 5 UID: 0 PID: 755 Comm: modprobe Not tainted 6.12.0-rc3+ #17\nHardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS\n1.16.1-2.fc37 04/01/2014\nRIP: 0010:__asan_load8+0x4c/0xa0\n...\nCall Trace:\n <TASK>\n blkdev_put_whole+0x41/0x70\n bdev_release+0x1a3/0x250\n blkdev_release+0x11/0x20\n __fput+0x1d7/0x4a0\n task_work_run+0xfc/0x180\n syscall_exit_to_user_mode+0x1de/0x1f0\n do_syscall_64+0x6b/0x170\n entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x76/0x7e\n\nloop_init() is calling loop_add() after __register_blkdev() succeeds and\nis ignoring disk_add() failure from loop_add(), for loop_add() failure\nis not fatal and successfully created disks are already visible to\nbdev_open().\n\nbrd_init() is currently calling brd_alloc() before __register_blkdev()\nsucceeds and is releasing successfully created disks when brd_init()\nreturns an error. This can cause UAF for the latter two case:\n\ncase 1:\n T1:\nmodprobe brd\n brd_init\n brd_alloc(0) // success\n add_disk\n disk_scan_partitions\n bdev_file_open_by_dev // alloc file\n fput // won't free until back to userspace\n brd_alloc(1) // failed since mem alloc error inject\n // error path for modprobe will release code segment\n // back to userspace\n __fput\n blkdev_release\n bdev_release\n blkdev_put_whole\n bdev->bd_disk->fops->release // fops is freed now, UAF!\n\ncase 2:\n T1: T2:\nmodprobe brd\n brd_init\n brd_alloc(0) // success\n open(/dev/ram0)\n brd_alloc(1) // fail\n // error path for modprobe\n\n close(/dev/ram0)\n ...\n /* UAF! */\n bdev->bd_disk->fops->release\n\nFix this problem by following what loop_init() does. Besides,\nreintroduce brd_devices_mutex to help serialize modifications to\nbrd_list."

"value": "AV:L - Triggering requires local access — loading/autoloading the brd module and holding an open file descriptor on /dev/ram0 across the failed initialization. There is no network-facing path into drivers/block/brd.c.\nAC:L - The attacker drives the exploitable side of the race directly by spinning open()/close() on /dev/ram0 (or by triggering block-major-1 autoload) and can retry unboundedly because a failed load leaves the major unregistered; the allocation failure that aborts brd_init() is inducible via local memory pressure. This matches the treatment of other allocation/registration error-path UAFs in this subsystem.\nPR:L - The attacker needs only a local account able to open the ram-disk device node (e.g. disk-group membership on stock distros, or the looser block-device permissions common on embedded/Android/appliance systems); no CAP_SYS_MODULE is needed since the module load can be an admin/boot action or kernel-initiated autoload.\nUI:N - No victim action is needed — the attacker's own open() of a major-1 node can trigger the module autoload, and the boot-time load path requires no interactive user involvement.\nS:U - The use-after-free is entirely within kernel memory and yields kernel-level compromise of the same system; no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - This is a use-after-free: disk->fops dangles into freed module memory and disk->private_data into a freed slab object, so the attacker can reclaim those allocations and use the stale references to disclose arbitrary kernel memory.\nI:H - The dangling fops pointer results in an indirect call through freed executable module memory, which is reclaimable by subsequent module loads or BPF JIT allocations, giving a realistic control-flow-hijack/arbitrary-write primitive; the freed brd_device is likewise a heap-spray target.\nA:H - The demonstrated result is a kernel oops (unhandled page fault in blkdev_put_whole() → bdev_release() path), and any use-after-free of this kind reliably panics the machine."
