Title

pstore: inode: Only d_invalidate() is needed

Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: pstore: inode: Only d_invalidate() is needed Unloading a modular pstore backend with records in pstorefs would trigger the dput() double-drop warning: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 2569 at fs/dcache.c:762 dput.part.0+0x3f3/0x410 Using the combo of d_drop()/dput() (as mentioned in Documentation/filesystems/vfs.rst) isn't the right approach here, and leads to the reference counting problem seen above. Use d_invalidate() and update the code to not bother checking for error codes that can never happen. ---

No network or adjacent-network path exists.\nAC:L - The double-drop is deterministic, not a race: every record belonging to the unregistering backend takes the buggy path unconditionally, and keeping a record file open across teardown is fully under the attacker\u0027s control. No unpredictable memory layout or victim state is required to reach the underflow.\nPR:L - Consistent with this repo\u0027s scoring of driver-removal/rmmod-triggered UAFs, a local unprivileged process supplies the decisive half of the exploit \u2014 holding the fd, then driving slab reclaim of the freed pstore_private/dentry and consuming the primitives via read()/close(); backend unregistration also occurs on non-rmmod paths such as mtdpstore_notify_remove() and platform-driver removal during normal system operation.\nUI:N - No victim action is needed \u2014 the attacker performs the file open, the backend teardown, and the subsequent read()/close() that dereference the freed objects. Nothing requires a second user to interact with the system.\nS:U - The corruption is confined to kernel dcache and slab objects within the same kernel security authority; there is no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary crossed. This is standard in-kernel memory corruption.\nC:H - The premature dentry kill evicts the inode and frees pstore_private/pstore_record/record-\u003ebuf while an open file still points at them via seq_file-\u003eprivate, so pstore_file_read() calls simple_read_from_buffer() with a freed, reclaimable source pointer and length \u2014 a controllable arbitrary kernel-memory read into userspace.\nI:H - The dentry refcount underflow frees the dentry while a file descriptor still holds it, so the later fput()/path_put()/dput() performs lockref decrements and d_child/d_subdirs list manipulation on reclaimed slab memory, yielding a write primitive suitable for heap-spray exploitation.\nA:H - At minimum the bug triggers WARNING at fs/dcache.c:762, which is fatal on the panic_on_warn configurations common in Android, hardened, and cloud kernels; with an open record file it produces a genuine dcache/slab use-after-free that reliably oopses or panics the kernel."

No network or adjacent-network path exists.\\nAC:L - The double-drop is deterministic, not a race: every record belonging to the unregistering backend takes the buggy path unconditionally, and keeping a record file open across teardown is fully under the attacker\u0027s control. No unpredictable memory layout or victim state is required to reach the underflow.\\nPR:L - Consistent with this repo\u0027s scoring of driver-removal/rmmod-triggered UAFs, a local unprivileged process supplies the decisive half of the exploit \\u2014 holding the fd, then driving slab reclaim of the freed pstore_private/dentry and consuming the primitives via read()/close(); backend unregistration also occurs on non-rmmod paths such as mtdpstore_notify_remove() and platform-driver removal during normal system operation.\\nUI:N - No victim action is needed \\u2014 the attacker performs the file open, the backend teardown, and the subsequent read()/close() that dereference the freed objects. Nothing requires a second user to interact with the system.\\nS:U - The corruption is confined to kernel dcache and slab objects within the same kernel security authority; there is no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary crossed. This is standard in-kernel memory corruption.\\nC:H - The premature dentry kill evicts the inode and frees pstore_private/pstore_record/record-\u003ebuf while an open file still points at them via seq_file-\u003eprivate, so pstore_file_read() calls simple_read_from_buffer() with a freed, reclaimable source pointer and length \\u2014 a controllable arbitrary kernel-memory read into userspace.\\nI:H - The dentry refcount underflow frees the dentry while a file descriptor still holds it, so the later fput()/path_put()/dput() performs lockref decrements and d_child/d_subdirs list manipulation on reclaimed slab memory, yielding a write primitive suitable for heap-spray exploitation.\\nA:H - At minimum the bug triggers WARNING at fs/dcache.c:762, which is fatal on the panic_on_warn configurations common in Android, hardened, and cloud kernels; with an open record file it produces a genuine dcache/slab use-after-free that reliably oopses or panics the kernel.\"}]}], \"affected\": [{\"repo\": \"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git\", \"vendor\": \"Linux\", \"product\": \"Linux\", \"versions\": [{\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"609e28bb139e53621521130f0d4aea27a725d465\", \"lessThan\": \"d0ee2a8adb6673382cce8a4280e1ca0849b3b783\", \"versionType\": \"git\"}, {\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"609e28bb139e53621521130f0d4aea27a725d465\", \"lessThan\": \"db6e5e16f1ee9e3b01d2f71c7f0ba945f4bf0f4e\", \"versionType\": \"git\"}, {\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"609e28bb139e53621521130f0d4aea27a725d465\", \"lessThan\": \"4cdf9006fc095af71da80e9b5f48a32e991b9ed3\", \"versionType\": \"git\"}, {\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"609e28bb139e53621521130f0d4aea27a725d465\", \"lessThan\": \"cb9e802e49c24eeb3af35e9e8c04d526f35f112a\", \"versionType\": \"git\"}, {\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"609e28bb139e53621521130f0d4aea27a725d465\", \"lessThan\": \"340682ed1932b8e3bd0bfc6c31a0c6354eb57cc6\", \"versionType\": \"git\"}, {\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"609e28bb139e53621521130f0d4aea27a725d465\", \"lessThan\": \"a43e0fc5e9134a46515de2f2f8d4100b74e50de3\", \"versionType\": \"git\"}], \"programFiles\": [\"fs/pstore/inode.c\"], \"defaultStatus\": \"unaffected\"}, {\"repo\": \"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git\", \"vendor\": \"Linux\", \"product\": \"Linux\", \"versions\": [{\"status\": \"affected\", \"version\": \"5.8\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"0\", \"lessThan\": \"5.8\", \"versionType\": \"semver\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"5.15.209\", \"versionType\": \"semver\", \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"5.15.*\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"6.1.83\", \"versionType\": \"semver\", \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"6.1.*\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"6.6.23\", \"versionType\": \"semver\", \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"6.6.*\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"6.7.11\", \"versionType\": \"semver\", \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"6.7.*\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"6.8.2\", \"versionType\": \"semver\", \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"6.8.*\"}, {\"status\": \"unaffected\", \"version\": \"6.9\", \"versionType\": \"original_commit_for_fix\", \"lessThanOrEqual\": \"*\"}], \"programFiles\": [\"fs/pstore/inode.c\"], \"defaultStatus\": \"affected\"}], \"references\": [{\"url\": \"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d0ee2a8adb6673382cce8a4280e1ca0849b3b783\"}, {\"url\": \"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/db6e5e16f1ee9e3b01d2f71c7f0ba945f4bf0f4e\"}, {\"url\": \"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/4cdf9006fc095af71da80e9b5f48a32e991b9ed3\"}, {\"url\": \"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/cb9e802e49c24eeb3af35e9e8c04d526f35f112a\"}, {\"url\": \"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/340682ed1932b8e3bd0bfc6c31a0c6354eb57cc6\"}, {\"url\": \"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a43e0fc5e9134a46515de2f2f8d4100b74e50de3\"}], \"x_generator\": {\"engine\": \"bippy-1.2.0\"}, \"descriptions\": [{\"lang\": \"en\", \"value\": \"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\\n\\npstore: inode: Only d_invalidate() is needed\\n\\nUnloading a modular pstore backend with records in pstorefs would\\ntrigger the dput() double-drop warning:\\n\\n  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 2569 at fs/dcache.c:762 dput.part.0+0x3f3/0x410\\n\\nUsing the combo of d_drop()/dput() (as mentioned in\\nDocumentation/filesystems/vfs.rst) isn\u0027t the right approach here, and\\nleads to the reference counting problem seen above.

Unloading a modular pstore backend with records in pstorefs would trigger the dput() double-drop warning:

WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 2569 at fs/dcache.c:762 dput.part.0+0x3f3/0x410

Using the combo of d_drop()/dput() (as mentioned in Documentation/filesystems/vfs.rst) isn't the right approach here, and leads to the reference counting problem seen above. Use d_invalidate() and update the code to not bother checking for error codes that can never happen.

Severity
