Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2025-03-06 16:15 - Updated: 2026-06-17 08:14
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: bpf: Reject struct_ops registration that uses module ptr and the module btf_id is missing There is a UAF report in the bpf_struct_ops when CONFIG_MODULES=n. In particular, the report is on tcp_congestion_ops that has a "struct module *owner" member. For struct_ops that has a "struct module *owner" member, it can be extended either by the regular kernel module or by the bpf_struct_ops. bpf_try_module_get() will be used to do the refcounting and different refcount is done based on the owner pointer. When CONFIG_MODULES=n, the btf_id of the "struct module" is missing: WARN: resolve_btfids: unresolved symbol module Thus, the bpf_try_module_get() cannot do the correct refcounting. Not all subsystem's struct_ops requires the "struct module *owner" member. e.g. the recent sched_ext_ops. This patch is to disable bpf_struct_ops registration if the struct_ops has the "struct module *" member and the "struct module" btf_id is missing. The btf_type_is_fwd() helper is moved to the btf.h header file for this test. This has happened since the beginning of bpf_struct_ops which has gone through many changes. The Fixes tag is set to a recent commit that this patch can apply cleanly. Considering CONFIG_MODULES=n is not common and the age of the issue, targeting for bpf-next also.

      "value": "En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: bpf: Rechazar el registro de struct_ops que usa el m\u00f3dulo ptr y falta el m\u00f3dulo btf_id Hay un informe UAF en bpf_struct_ops cuando CONFIG_MODULES=n. En particular, el informe est\u00e1 en tcp_congestion_ops que tiene un miembro \"struct module *owner\". Para struct_ops que tiene un miembro \"struct module *owner\", puede extenderse mediante el m\u00f3dulo de kernel regular o mediante bpf_struct_ops. bpf_try_module_get() se usar\u00e1 para hacer el recuento de referencias y se realiza un recuento de referencias diferente seg\u00fan el puntero del propietario. Cuando CONFIG_MODULES=n, falta el btf_id del \"struct module\": WARN: resolve_btfids: m\u00f3dulo de s\u00edmbolo sin resolver Por lo tanto, bpf_try_module_get() no puede hacer el recuento de referencias correcto. No todos los struct_ops de los subsistemas requieren el miembro \"struct module *owner\", por ejemplo, el reciente sched_ext_ops. Este parche sirve para deshabilitar el registro de bpf_struct_ops si struct_ops tiene el miembro \"struct module *\" y falta el btf_id \"struct module\". El asistente btf_type_is_fwd() se ha movido al archivo de encabezado btf.h para esta prueba. Esto ha sucedido desde el comienzo de bpf_struct_ops, que ha sufrido muchos cambios. La etiqueta Fixes se establece en una confirmaci\u00f3n reciente que este parche puede aplicar sin problemas. Teniendo en cuenta que CONFIG_MODULES=n no es com\u00fan y la antig\u00fcedad del problema, tambi\u00e9n se apunta a bpf-next."
