CVE-2021-3640 and the unlimited block of lock_sock()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

it seems that the recent fixes in bluetooth tree address most of
issues in CVE-2021-3640 ("Use-After-Free vulnerability in function
sco_sock_sendmsg()").  But there is still a problem left: although we
cover the race with lock_sock() now, the lock may be blocked endlessly
(as the task takes over with userfaultd), which result in the trigger
of watchdog like:

Is there any plan to address this?

As a quick hack, I confirmed a workaround like below:

-- 8< --
--- a/net/core/sock.c
+++ b/net/core/sock.c
@@ -2628,7 +2628,7 @@ void __lock_sock(struct sock *sk)
 		prepare_to_wait_exclusive(&sk->sk_lock.wq, &wait,
 					TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE);
 		spin_unlock_bh(&sk->sk_lock.slock);
-		schedule();
+		schedule_timeout(msecs_to_jiffies(10 * 1000));
 		spin_lock_bh(&sk->sk_lock.slock);
 		if (!sock_owned_by_user(sk))
 			break;
-- 8< --

.... but I'm not sure whether it's the right way to go.


thanks,

Takashi
