CVE-2022-49204

Description

From CVE.org

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf, sockmap: Fix more uncharged while msg has more_data In tcp_bpf_send_verdict(), if msg has more data after tcp_bpf_sendmsg_redir(): tcp_bpf_send_verdict() tosend = msg->sg.size //msg->sg.size = 22220 case __SK_REDIRECT: sk_msg_return() //uncharged msg->sg.size(22220) sk->sk_forward_alloc tcp_bpf_sendmsg_redir() //after tcp_bpf_sendmsg_redir, msg->sg.size=11000 goto more_data; tosend = msg->sg.size //msg->sg.size = 11000 case __SK_REDIRECT: sk_msg_return() //uncharged msg->sg.size(11000) to sk->sk_forward_alloc The msg->sg.size(11000) has been uncharged twice, to fix we can charge the remaining msg->sg.size before goto more data. This issue can cause the following info: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 9860 at net/core/stream.c:208 sk_stream_kill_queues+0xd4/0x1a0 Call Trace: <TASK> inet_csk_destroy_sock+0x55/0x110 __tcp_close+0x279/0x470 tcp_close+0x1f/0x60 inet_release+0x3f/0x80 __sock_release+0x3d/0xb0 sock_close+0x11/0x20 __fput+0x92/0x250 task_work_run+0x6a/0xa0 do_exit+0x33b/0xb60 do_group_exit+0x2f/0xa0 get_signal+0xb6/0x950 arch_do_signal_or_restart+0xac/0x2a0 ? vfs_write+0x237/0x290 exit_to_user_mode_prepare+0xa9/0x200 syscall_exit_to_user_mode+0x12/0x30 do_syscall_64+0x46/0x80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xae </TASK> WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 2136 at net/ipv4/af_inet.c:155 inet_sock_destruct+0x13c/0x260 Call Trace: <TASK> __sk_destruct+0x24/0x1f0 sk_psock_destroy+0x19b/0x1c0 process_one_work+0x1b3/0x3c0 worker_thread+0x30/0x350 ? process_one_work+0x3c0/0x3c0 kthread+0xe6/0x110 ? kthread_complete_and_exit+0x20/0x20 ret_from_fork+0x22/0x30 </TASK>

Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details

Info alert:Important note

CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).

Understanding the Weakness (CWE)

Availability

Technical Impact: DoS: Crash, Exit, or Restart; DoS: Resource Consumption (CPU); DoS: Resource Consumption (Memory); DoS: Resource Consumption (Other)

If an attacker can trigger the allocation of the limited resources, but the number or size of the resources is not controlled, then the most common result is denial of service. This would prevent valid users from accessing the product, and it could potentially have an impact on the surrounding environment, i.e., the product may slow down, crash due to unhandled errors, or lock out legitimate users. For example, a memory exhaustion attack against an application could slow down the application as well as its host operating system.

Access Control,Other

Technical Impact: Bypass Protection Mechanism; Other

In some cases it may be possible to force the product to "fail open" in the event of resource exhaustion. The state of the product -- and possibly the security functionality - may then be compromised.
