Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: af_unix: Fix data races around sk->sk_shutdown. KCSAN found a data race around sk->sk_shutdown where unix_release_sock() and unix_shutdown() update it under unix_state_lock(), OTOH unix_poll() and unix_dgram_poll() read it locklessly. We need to annotate the writes and reads with WRITE_ONCE() and READ_ONCE(). BUG: KCSAN: data-race in unix_poll / unix_release_sock write to 0xffff88800d0f8aec of 1 bytes by task 264 on cpu 0: unix_release_sock+0x75c/0x910 net/unix/af_unix.c:631 unix_release+0x59/0x80 net/unix/af_unix.c:1042 __sock_release+0x7d/0x170 net/socket.c:653 sock_close+0x19/0x30 net/socket.c:1397 __fput+0x179/0x5e0 fs/file_table.c:321 ____fput+0x15/0x20 fs/file_table.c:349 task_work_run+0x116/0x1a0 kernel/task_work.c:179 resume_user_mode_work include/linux/resume_user_mode.h:49 [inline] exit_to_user_mode_loop kernel/entry/common.c:171 [inline] exit_to_user_mode_prepare+0x174/0x180 kernel/entry/common.c:204 __syscall_exit_to_user_mode_work kernel/entry/common.c:286 [inline] syscall_exit_to_user_mode+0x1a/0x30 kernel/entry/common.c:297 do_syscall_64+0x4b/0x90 arch/x86/entry/common.c:86 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x72/0xdc read to 0xffff88800d0f8aec of 1 bytes by task 222 on cpu 1: unix_poll+0xa3/0x2a0 net/unix/af_unix.c:3170 sock_poll+0xcf/0x2b0 net/socket.c:1385 vfs_poll include/linux/poll.h:88 [inline] ep_item_poll.isra.0+0x78/0xc0 fs/eventpoll.c:855 ep_send_events fs/eventpoll.c:1694 [inline] ep_poll fs/eventpoll.c:1823 [inline] do_epoll_wait+0x6c4/0xea0 fs/eventpoll.c:2258 __do_sys_epoll_wait fs/eventpoll.c:2270 [inline] __se_sys_epoll_wait fs/eventpoll.c:2265 [inline] __x64_sys_epoll_wait+0xcc/0x190 fs/eventpoll.c:2265 do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:50 [inline] do_syscall_64+0x3b/0x90 arch/x86/entry/common.c:80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x72/0xdc value changed: 0x00 -> 0x03 Reported by Kernel Concurrency Sanitizer on: CPU: 1 PID: 222 Comm: dbus-broker Not tainted 6.3.0-rc7-02330-gca6270c12e20 #2 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.16.0-0-gd239552ce722-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014
