CVE-2025-38210

Estado: AnalizadaMedia (5.5)—

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

configfs-tsm-report: Fix NULL dereference of tsm_ops

Unlike sysfs, the lifetime of configfs objects is controlled by userspace. There is no mechanism for the kernel to find and delete all created config-items. Instead, the configfs-tsm-report mechanism has an expectation that tsm_unregister() can happen at any time and cause established config-item access to start failing.

That expectation is not fully satisfied. While tsm_report_read(), tsm_report_{is,is_bin}_visible(), and tsm_report_make_item() safely fail if tsm_ops have been unregistered, tsm_report_privlevel_store() tsm_report_provider_show() fail to check for ops registration. Add the missing checks for tsm_ops having been removed.

Now, in supporting the ability for tsm_unregister() to always succeed, it leaves the problem of what to do with lingering config-items. The expectation is that the admin that arranges for the ->remove() (unbind) of the ${tsm_arch}-guest driver is also responsible for deletion of all open config-items. Until that deletion happens, ->probe() (reload / bind) of the ${tsm_arch}-guest driver fails.

This allows for emergency shutdown / revocation of attestation interfaces, and requires coordinated restart.

      "value": "En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: configfs-tsm-report: Arregla la desreferencia NULL de tsm_ops A diferencia de sysfs, el tiempo de vida de los objetos configfs está controlado por el espacio de usuario. No hay ningún mecanismo para que el kernel encuentre y elimine todos los elementos de configuración creados. En cambio, el mecanismo configfs-tsm-report tiene una expectativa de que tsm_unregister() puede suceder en cualquier momento y hacer que el acceso establecido a los elementos de configuración empiece a fallar. Esa expectativa no se cumple por completo. Mientras que tsm_report_read(), tsm_report_{is,is_bin}_visible() y tsm_report_make_item() fallan de forma segura si se ha anulado el registro de tsm_ops, tsm_report_privlevel_store() y tsm_report_provider_show() no comprueban el registro de operaciones. Añade las comprobaciones que faltan para que se hayan eliminado los tsm_ops. Ahora, al permitir que tsm_unregister() siempre se ejecute correctamente, se plantea el problema de qué hacer con los elementos de configuración persistentes. Se espera que el administrador que gestiona la eliminación del controlador invitado ${tsm_arch} también sea responsable de eliminar todos los elementos de configuración abiertos. Hasta que se elimine, la recarga y la vinculación del controlador invitado ${tsm_arch} falla. Esto permite el apagado o la revocación de emergencia de las interfaces de atestación y requiere un reinicio coordinado."
