CVE-2021-47299 is fixed in linux on 1 platform, first by DEBIAN-CVE-2021-47299, released May 21, 2024. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: Routine.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xdp, net: Fix use-after-free in bpf_xdp_link_release The problem occurs between dev_get_by_index() and dev_xdp_attach_link(). At this point, dev_xdp_uninstall() is called. Then xdp link will not be detached automatically when dev is released. But link->dev already points to dev, when xdp link is released, dev will still be accessed, but dev has been released. dev_get_by_index() | link->dev = dev | | rtnl_lock() | unregister_netdevice_many() | dev_xdp_uninstall() | rtnl_unlock() rtnl_lock(); | dev_xdp_attach_link() | rtnl_unlock(); | | netdev_run_todo() // dev released bpf_xdp_link_release() | /* access dev. | use-after-free */ | [ 45.966867] BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in bpf_xdp_link_release+0x3b8/0x3d0 [ 45.967619] Read of size 8 at addr ffff00000f9980c8 by task a.out/732 [ 45.968297] [ 45.968502] CPU: 1 PID: 732 Comm: a.out Not tainted 5.13.0+ #22 [ 45.969222] Hardware name: linux,dummy-virt (DT) [ 45.969795] Call trace: [ 45.970106] dump_backtrace+0x0/0x4c8 [ 45.970564] show_stack+0x30/0x40 [ 45.970981] dump_stack_lvl+0x120/0x18c [ 45.971470] print_address_description.constprop.0+0x74/0x30c [ 45.972182] kasan_report+0x1e8/0x200 [ 45.972659] __asan_report_load8_noabort+0x2c/0x50 [ 45.973273] bpf_xdp_link_release+0x3b8/0x3d0 [ 45.973834] bpf_link_free+0xd0/0x188 [ 45.974315] bpf_link_put+0x1d0/0x218 [ 45.974790] bpf_link_release+0x3c/0x58 [ 45.975291] __fput+0x20c/0x7e8 [ 45.975706] ____fput+0x24/0x30 [ 45.976117] task_work_run+0x104/0x258 [ 45.976609] do_notify_resume+0x894/0xaf8 [ 45.977121] work_pending+0xc/0x328 [ 45.977575] [ 45.977775] The buggy address belongs to the page: [ 45.978369] page:fffffc00003e6600 refcount:0 mapcount:0 mapping:0000000000000000 index:0x0 pfn:0x4f998 [ 45.979522] flags: 0x7fffe0000000000(node=0|zone=0|lastcpupid=0x3ffff) [ 45.980349] raw: 07fffe0000000000 fffffc00003e6708 ffff0000dac3c010 0000000000000000 [ 45.981309] raw: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 00000000ffffffff 0000000000000000 [ 45.982259] page dumped because: kasan: bad access detected [ 45.982948] [ 45.983153] Memory state around the buggy address: [ 45.983753] ffff00000f997f80: fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc [ 45.984645] ffff00000f998000: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff [ 45.985533] >ffff00000f998080: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff [ 45.986419] ^ [ 45.987112] ffff00000f998100: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff [ 45.988006] ffff00000f998180: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff [ 45.988895] ================================================================== [ 45.989773] Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint [ 45.990552] Kernel panic - not syncing: panic_on_warn set ...
