From 657b5146955eba331e01b9a6ae89ce2e716ba306 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jann Horn Date: Wed, 26 Jul 2023 23:41:03 +0200 Subject: mm: lock_vma_under_rcu() must check vma->anon_vma under vma lock lock_vma_under_rcu() tries to guarantee that __anon_vma_prepare() can't be called in the VMA-locked page fault path by ensuring that vma->anon_vma is set. However, this check happens before the VMA is locked, which means a concurrent move_vma() can concurrently call unlink_anon_vmas(), which disassociates the VMA's anon_vma. This means we can get UAF in the following scenario: THREAD 1 THREAD 2 ======== ======== lock_vma_under_rcu() rcu_read_lock() mas_walk() check vma->anon_vma mremap() syscall move_vma() vma_start_write() unlink_anon_vmas() handle_mm_fault() __handle_mm_fault() handle_pte_fault() do_pte_missing() do_anonymous_page() anon_vma_prepare() __anon_vma_prepare() find_mergeable_anon_vma() mas_walk() [looks up VMA X] munmap() syscall (deletes VMA X) reusable_anon_vma() [called on freed VMA X] This is a security bug if you can hit it, although an attacker would have to win two races at once where the first race window is only a few instructions wide. This patch is based on some previous discussion with Linus Torvalds on the security list.
