Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bonding: fix use-after-free due to enslave fail after slave array update
Fix a use-after-free which happens due to enslave failure after the new
slave has been added to the array. Since the new slave can be used for Tx
immediately, we can use it after it has been freed by the enslave error
cleanup path which frees the allocated slave memory. Slave update array is
supposed to be called last when further enslave failures are not expected.
Move it after xdp setup to avoid any problems.
It is very easy to reproduce the problem with a simple xdp_pass prog:
ip l add bond1 type bond mode balance-xor
ip l set bond1 up
ip l set dev bond1 xdp object xdp_pass.o sec xdp_pass
ip l add dumdum type dummy
Then run in parallel:
while :; do ip l set dumdum master bond1 1>/dev/null 2>&1; done;
mausezahn bond1 -a own -b rand -A rand -B 1.1.1.1 -c 0 -t tcp "dp=1-1023, flags=syn"
The crash happens almost immediately:
