CVE-2022-49607
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
perf/core: Fix data race between perf_event_set_output() and perf_mmap_close()
Yang Jihing reported a race between perf_event_set_output() and perf_mmap_close():
perf_mmap_close(e2) if (atomic_dec_and_test(&e2->rb->mmap_count)) // 1 - > 0 detach_rest = true
ioctl(e1, IOC_SET_OUTPUT, e2) perf_event_set_output(e1, e2)
... list_for_each_entry_rcu(e, &e2->rb->event_list, rb_entry) ring_buffer_attach(e, NULL); // e1 isn't yet added and // therefore not detached
ring_buffer_attach(e1, e2->rb) list_add_rcu(&e1->rb_entry, &e2->rb->event_list)
Leer descripción completaMostrar menos
After this; e1 is attached to an unmapped rb and a subsequent perf_mmap() will loop forever more:
The loop in perf_mmap_close() holds e2->mmap_mutex, while the attach in perf_event_set_output() holds e1->mmap_mutex. As such there is no serialization to avoid this race.
Change perf_event_set_output() to take both e1->mmap_mutex and e2->mmap_mutex to alleviate that problem. Additionally, have the loop in perf_mmap() detach the rb directly, this avoids having to wait for the concurrent perf_mmap_close() to get around to doing it to make progress.

again:

if (event->rb) {

if (!atomic_inc_not_zero(&e->rb->mmap_count)) {
...
mutex_unlock(&e->mmap_mutex);
goto again;
}
