Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2024-05-19 09:15 - Updated: 2026-08-04 11:18

Severity

7.8 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
5.5 (Medium) - CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H

Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: of: dynamic: Synchronize of_changeset_destroy() with the devlink removals In the following sequence: 1) of_platform_depopulate() 2) of_overlay_remove() During the step 1, devices are destroyed and devlinks are removed. During the step 2, OF nodes are destroyed but __of_changeset_entry_destroy() can raise warnings related to missing of_node_put(): ERROR: memory leak, expected refcount 1 instead of 2 ... Indeed, during the devlink removals performed at step 1, the removal itself releasing the device (and the attached of_node) is done by a job queued in a workqueue and so, it is done asynchronously with respect to function calls. When the warning is present, of_node_put() will be called but wrongly too late from the workqueue job. In order to be sure that any ongoing devlink removals are done before the of_node destruction, synchronize the of_changeset_destroy() with the devlink removals.

Choosing the higher-severity option where the privilege boundary is deployment-dependent.\nUI:N - The overlay teardown is initiated by the attacker\u0027s own action (unbind/hot-unplug) or by an autonomous device event; no separate victim needs to perform any operation.\nS:U - The corrupted objects (struct device_node, kobject refcounts, kernel heap) all live within the kernel\u0027s own security authority; no VM, IOMMU or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - When a leaked child node\u0027s parent device_node has already been freed, of_node_release()\u0027s %pOF print dereferences the freed parent and its freed full_name pointer, rendering reclaimed heap contents into the kernel log \u2014 a use-after-free read of attacker-influenceable memory.\nI:H - The same path performs kobject_get()/refcount_inc() on the freed parent object, writing into memory that can be reclaimed by an attacker-sprayed allocation during the asynchronous workqueue window, giving a use-after-free write primitive.\nA:H - Every affected teardown permanently leaks device_node memory plus its properties, and the resulting refcount-0 nodes left in fwnode link lists and dangling parent pointers produce refcount_t warnings and freed-memory dereferences that oops (and panic under panic_on_warn); repeated hot-unplug cycles drive unbounded memory exhaustion."

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.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
