CVE-2024-56693 at MITRE

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

brd: defer automatic disk creation until module initialization succeeds

My colleague Wupeng found the following problems during fault injection:

BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: fffffbfff809d073
PGD 6e648067 P4D 123ec8067 PUD 123ec4067 PMD 100e38067 PTE 0
Oops: Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN NOPTI
CPU: 5 UID: 0 PID: 755 Comm: modprobe Not tainted 6.12.0-rc3+ #17
Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS
1.16.1-2.fc37 04/01/2014

loop_init() is calling loop_add() after __register_blkdev() succeeds and
is ignoring disk_add() failure from loop_add(), for loop_add() failure
is not fatal and successfully created disks are already visible to
bdev_open().

brd_init() is currently calling brd_alloc() before __register_blkdev()
succeeds and is releasing successfully created disks when brd_init()
returns an error. This can cause UAF for the latter two case:

case 1:
T1:
modprobe brd
brd_init
brd_alloc(0) // success
add_disk
disk_scan_partitions
bdev_file_open_by_dev // alloc file
fput // won't free until back to userspace
brd_alloc(1) // failed since mem alloc error inject
// error path for modprobe will release code segment
// back to userspace
__fput
blkdev_release
bdev_release
blkdev_put_whole
bdev->bd_disk->fops->release // fops is freed now, UAF!

case 2:
T1: T2:
modprobe brd
brd_init
brd_alloc(0) // success
open(/dev/ram0)
brd_alloc(1) // fail
// error path for modprobe

close(/dev/ram0)
...
/* UAF! */
bdev->bd_disk->fops->release

Fix this problem by following what loop_init() does. Besides,
reintroduce brd_devices_mutex to help serialize modifications to
brd_list.
