CVE-2025-37772
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/cma: Fix workqueue crash in cma_netevent_work_handler
struct rdma_cm_id has member "struct work_struct net_work" that is reused for enqueuing cma_netevent_work_handler()s onto cma_wq.
Below crash[1] can occur if more than one call to cma_netevent_callback() occurs in quick succession, which further enqueues cma_netevent_work_handler()s for the same rdma_cm_id, overwriting any previously queued work-item(s) that was just scheduled to run i.e. there is no guarantee the queued work item may run between two successive calls to cma_netevent_callback() and the 2nd INIT_WORK would overwrite the 1st work item (for the same rdma_cm_id), despite grabbing id_table_lock during enqueue.
Leer descripción completaMostrar menos
Also drgn analysis [2] indicates the work item was likely overwritten.
Fix this by moving the INIT_WORK() to __rdma_create_id(), so that it doesn't race with any existing queue_work() or its worker thread.
[2] drgn crash analysis:
>>> trace = prog.crashed_thread().stack_trace() >>> trace (0) crash_setup_regs (./arch/x86/include/asm/kexec.h:111:15) (1) __crash_kexec (kernel/crash_core.c:122:4) (2) panic (kernel/panic.c:399:3) (3) oops_end (arch/x86/kernel/dumpstack.c:382:3) ... (8) process_one_work (kernel/workqueue.c:3168:2) (9) process_scheduled_works (kernel/workqueue.c:3310:3) (10) worker_thread (kernel/workqueue.c:3391:4) (11) kthread (kernel/kthread.c:389:9)
Suspicion is that pwq is NULL: >>> trace[8]["pwq"] (struct pool_workqueue *)<absent>
WORK_STRUCT_PWQ is 0x4: >>> print(repr(prog['WORK_STRUCT_PWQ'])) Object(prog, 'enum work_flags', value=4)
But work->data is 536870912 which is 0x20000000. So, get_work_pwq() returns NULL and we crash in process_one_work(): 3168 strscpy(worker->desc, pwq->wq->name, WORKER_DESC_LEN); =============================================

and get_work_pwq() is:
