In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/cma: Ensure rdma_addr_cancel() happens before issuing more requests
The FSM can run in a circle allowing rdma_resolve_ip() to be called twice
on the same id_priv. While this cannot happen without going through the
work, it violates the invariant that the same address resolution
background request cannot be active twice.
CPU 1 CPU 2
rdma_resolve_addr():
RDMA_CM_IDLE -> RDMA_CM_ADDR_QUERY
rdma_resolve_ip(addr_handler) #1
process_one_req(): for #1
addr_handler():
RDMA_CM_ADDR_QUERY -> RDMA_CM_ADDR_BOUND
mutex_unlock(&id_priv->handler_mutex);
[.. handler still running ..]
rdma_resolve_addr():
RDMA_CM_ADDR_BOUND -> RDMA_CM_ADDR_QUERY
rdma_resolve_ip(addr_handler)
!! two requests are now on the req_list
rdma_destroy_id():
destroy_id_handler_unlock():
_destroy_id():
cma_cancel_operation():
rdma_addr_cancel()
// process_one_req() self removes it
spin_lock_bh(&lock);
cancel_delayed_work(&req->work);
if (!list_empty(&req->list)) == true
! rdma_addr_cancel() returns after process_on_req #1 is done
kfree(id_priv)
process_one_req(): for #2
addr_handler():
mutex_lock(&id_priv->handler_mutex);
!! Use after free on id_priv
rdma_addr_cancel() expects there to be one req on the list and only
cancels the first one. The self-removal behavior of the work only happens
after the handler has returned. This yields a situations where the
req_list can have two reqs for the same "handle" but rdma_addr_cancel()
only cancels the first one.
The second req remains active beyond rdma_destroy_id() and will
use-after-free id_priv once it inevitably triggers.
Fix this by remembering if the id_priv has called rdma_resolve_ip() and
always cancel before calling it again. This ensures the req_list never
gets more than one item in it and doesn't cost anything in the normal flow
that never uses this strange error path.Verknüpft mit AI von unstrukturierten Daten zu bestehenden CPE der NVD

CWE-416 Use After Free
The product reuses or references memory after it has been freed. At some point afterward, the memory may be allocated again and saved in another pointer, while the original pointer references a location somewhere within the new allocation. Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory "belongs" to the code that operates on the new pointer.
