CVE-2022-49567
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/mempolicy: fix uninit-value in mpol_rebind_policy()
mpol_set_nodemask()(mm/mempolicy.c) does not set up nodemask when pol->mode is MPOL_LOCAL. Check pol->mode before access pol->w.cpuset_mems_allowed in mpol_rebind_policy()(mm/mempolicy.c).
Uninit was created at: slab_post_alloc_hook mm/slab.h:524 [inline] slab_alloc_node mm/slub.c:3251 [inline] slab_alloc mm/slub.c:3259 [inline] kmem_cache_alloc+0x902/0x11c0 mm/slub.c:3264 mpol_new mm/mempolicy.c:293 [inline] do_set_mempolicy+0x421/0xb70 mm/mempolicy.c:853 kernel_set_mempolicy mm/mempolicy.c:1504 [inline] __do_sys_set_mempolicy mm/mempolicy.c:1510 [inline] __se_sys_set_mempolicy+0x44c/0xb60 mm/mempolicy.c:1507 __x64_sys_set_mempolicy+0xd8/0x110 mm/mempolicy.c:1507 do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:51 [inline] do_syscall_64+0x54/0xd0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:82 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xae

KMSAN: uninit-value in mpol_rebind_task (2) https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=d6eb90f952c2a5de9ea718a1b873c55cb13b59dc
This patch seems to fix below bug too. KMSAN: uninit-value in mpol_rebind_mm (2) https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=f2fecd0d7013f54ec4162f60743a2b28df40926b
The uninit-value is pol->w.cpuset_mems_allowed in mpol_rebind_policy(). When syzkaller reproducer runs to the beginning of mpol_new(),
mpol_new() mm/mempolicy.c do_mbind() mm/mempolicy.c kernel_mbind() mm/mempolicy.c
`mode` is 1(MPOL_PREFERRED), nodes_empty(*nodes) is `true` and `flags` is 0. Then
will be executed. So in mpol_set_nodemask(),
mpol_set_nodemask() mm/mempolicy.c do_mbind() kernel_mbind()
pol->mode is 4 (MPOL_LOCAL), that `nodemask` in `pol` is not initialized, which will be accessed in mpol_rebind_policy().
