Title
net_sched: red: fix a race in __red_change()
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net_sched: red: fix a race in __red_change()
Gerrard Tai reported a race condition in RED, whenever SFQ perturb timer
fires at the wrong time.
The race is as follows:
CPU 0 CPU 1
[1]: lock root
[2]: qdisc_tree_flush_backlog()
[3]: unlock root
|
| [5]: lock root
| [6]: rehash
| [7]: qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog()
|
[4]: qdisc_put()
This can be abused to underflow a parent's qlen.
Calling qdisc_purge_queue() instead of qdisc_tree_flush_backlog()
should fix the race, because all packets will be purged from the qdisc
before releasing the lock.

No remote peer can reach `__red_change()`.\nAC:L - The attacker controls both sides of the race \u2014 they configure the SFQ perturb period (1s), arm the timer, fill the queue so `sfq_rehash()` drops packets, and drive the `__red_change()` loop, retrying unboundedly across many RED/SFQ hierarchies with no external precondition.\nPR:L - Only CAP_NET_ADMIN within the netns owner\u0027s user namespace is required (net/core/rtnetlink.c:6922 uses `netlink_net_capable()`), which any unprivileged local user obtains via `unshare -Urn`; qdisc module autoload is not additionally gated.\nUI:N - The attacker performs every step \u2014 creating the qdisc hierarchy, generating the traffic, and issuing the change requests. No victim action is involved.\nS:U - The corrupted state and any resulting memory corruption are confined to the kernel of the same host; no VM, IOMMU, or other security-authority boundary is crossed.\nC:H - The `qlen`/`backlog` underflow desynchronizes parent qdisc accounting from its class active lists, yielding stale/freed class objects being walked in the dequeue path \u2014 a use-after-free-grade primitive that gives an attacker control over freed slab contents and thus kernel memory disclosure.\nI:H - The same qlen-underflow-to-UAF desync in classful parents (HTB/HFSC/DRR/QFQ/ETS) permits heap grooming over the freed class objects and corruption of adjacent kernel structures and function pointers, giving a write/control-flow primitive; the fix\u0027s own wording notes the underflow \"can be abused.\"\nA:H - A parent qdisc believing it holds ~4 billion packets triggers `WARN_ON`s, NULL dereferences in the dequeue path, and permanently wedged/inconsistent qdisc state, and any resulting use-after-free reliably panics the kernel."

Drag nodes to arrange them. Double-click a related vulnerability to open it, or a source to visit its link. The Physics button on the left tunes the layout and the simulation; the legend at the bottom left hides or shows nodes by kind and by sighting type.
Experimental. This forecast is provided for visualization only and may change without notice. Do not use it for operational decisions.
Forecast uses a logistic model when the trend is rising, or an exponential decay model when the trend is falling. Fitted via linearized least squares.
Sightings
| Author | Source | Type | Date | Other |

Nomenclature
- Seen: The vulnerability was mentioned, discussed, or observed by the user.
- Confirmed: The vulnerability has been validated from an analyst's perspective.
- Published Proof of Concept: A public proof of concept is available for this vulnerability.
- Exploited: The vulnerability was observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
- Patched: The vulnerability was observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.
- Not exploited: The vulnerability was not observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
- Not confirmed: The user expressed doubt about the validity of the vulnerability.
- Not patched: The vulnerability was not observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.
Vulnerability timeline
Sightings and recorded dates, grouped by day · UTC
How durations are calculated
Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.
Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the
vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base
model, served locally by ML-Gateway.
They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
