"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nalloc_tag: fix use-after-free in /proc/allocinfo after module unload\n\nallocinfo_start() only reinitializes the codetag iterator at position 0. \nFor subsequent reads (position > 0), it reuses cached iterator state from\nthe previous batch. allocinfo_stop() drops mod_lock between read batches,\nwhich allows module unload to complete and free the module memory that the\ncached iterator still references:\n\n CPU0 (read) CPU1 (rmmod)\n ---- ----\n allocinfo_start(pos=0)\n down_read(mod_lock)\n allocinfo_show()\n ...\n allocinfo_stop()\n up_read(mod_lock)\n codetag_unload_module()\n kfree(cmod)\n release_module_tags()\n ...\n free_mod_mem()\n allocinfo_start(pos=N)\n down_read(mod_lock)\n // reuses cached iter, skips re-init\n allocinfo_show()\n ct->filename <-- UAF\n\nAfter free_mod_mem() frees the module's .rodata, allocinfo_show()\ndereferences ct->filename, ct->function which point there.\n\nSave the iterator state in allocinfo_next() and resume from it in\nallocinfo_start() with codetag_next_ct(), which detects module removal via\nidr_find() returning NULL and skips to the next module."
