From bippy-c9c4e1df01b2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Greg Kroah-Hartman To: Reply-to: , Subject: CVE-2022-48780: net/smc: Avoid overwriting the copies of clcsock callback functions Description =========== In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/smc: Avoid overwriting the copies of clcsock callback functions The callback functions of clcsock will be saved and replaced during the fallback. But if the fallback happens more than once, then the copies of these callback functions will be overwritten incorrectly, resulting in a loop call issue: clcsk->sk_error_report |- smc_fback_error_report() <------------------------------| |- smc_fback_forward_wakeup() | (loop) |- clcsock_callback() (incorrectly overwritten) | |- smc->clcsk_error_report() ------------------| So this patch fixes the issue by saving these function pointers only once in the fallback and avoiding overwriting. The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2022-48780 to this issue. Affected and fixed versions =========================== Issue introduced in 5.15.22 with commit 0ef6049f6649 and fixed in 5.15.25 with commit 7de7ba7a8bd4 Issue introduced in 5.16.8 with commit 504078fbe9dd and fixed in 5.16.11 with commit f00b6c976ae0 Please see https://www.kernel.org for a full list of currently supported kernel versions by the kernel community. Unaffected versions might change over time as fixes are backported to older supported kernel versions. The official CVE entry at https://cve.org/CVERecord/?id=CVE-2022-48780 will be updated if fixes are backported, please check that for the most up to date information about this issue. Affected files ============== The file(s) affected by this issue are: net/smc/af_smc.c Mitigation ========== The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this issue can be found at these commits: https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/7de7ba7a8bd4fde0141de8674c13514d0072f0e6 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f00b6c976ae0dfbd9b891175f713f59095d23842 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1de9770d121ee9294794cca0e0be8fbfa0134ee8
