Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2024-09-13 06:15 - Updated: 2026-08-04 11:20

Severity

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

Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bonding: change ipsec_lock from spin lock to mutex In the cited commit, bond->ipsec_lock is added to protect ipsec_list, hence xdo_dev_state_add and xdo_dev_state_delete are called inside this lock. As ipsec_lock is a spin lock and such xfrmdev ops may sleep, "scheduling while atomic" will be triggered when changing bond's active slave.

And bond_ipsec_add_sa and bond_ipsec_del_sa are xfrm state xdo_dev_state_add and xdo_dev_state_delete APIs, which are in user context. So ipsec_lock doesn't have to be spin lock, change it to mutex, and thus the above issue can be resolved.

No remote peer data reaches this code; the auto-failover variant only lets an on-link party influence timing, not reach the code directly.\nAC:L - The atomic-sleep BUG is deterministic \u2014 a single active-slave change with offloaded SAs present reliably calls a sleeping `xdo_dev_state_add()` under `spin_lock_bh()`. For the RCU/UAF variant the attacker drives both sides of the race (one thread adding offloaded SAs, another enslaving/releasing the slave), so no uncontrolled condition is required.\nPR:L - Both entry points gate only on CAP_NET_ADMIN scoped to the network namespace (`netlink_net_capable()` in xfrm_user.c, netns-scoped rtnetlink/bonding options), which an unprivileged user obtains via `unshare -Urn` or holds inside a container that has a delegated offload-capable VF. Real root in the init namespace is not required.\nUI:N - The attacker performs all steps themselves \u2014 adding the offloaded xfrm state and changing the bond\u0027s active slave \u2014 with no action by any other user or administrator.\nS:U - The fault, the corrupted scheduler/lock state, and the freed objects all live in the kernel of the same host; no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - Sleeping inside the RCU read-side section defeats the `synchronize_rcu()` barrier in `__bond_release_one()`, so the sleeping caller resumes on a freed `slave`/`net_device` \u2014 a use-after-free that lets a heap-sprayed replacement object be read back through the driver\u0027s SA-programming path, exposing kernel memory.\nI:H - The same use-after-free gives a write primitive: `xs-\u003exso.real_dev` and driver state are written through the stale `net_device`/`slave` allocation, and the fix\u0027s addition of `netdev_hold()`/`netdev_put()` confirms the object could be freed while still in use, which is exploitable for control-flow hijacking.\nA:H - The confirmed, trivially reproducible effect is `BUG: scheduling while atomic` with `bond-\u003eipsec_lock` held across a context switch, causing spinning CPUs, soft lockups/deadlock, and a panic under `panic_on_warn`; the use-after-free independently crashes the kernel."

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.
