Description In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tty: n_gsm: fix UAF in gsm_cleanup_mux In gsm_cleanup_mux() the 'gsm->dlci' pointer was not cleaned properly, leaving it a dangling pointer after gsm_dlci_release. This leads to use-after-free where 'gsm->dlci[0]' are freed and accessed by the subsequent gsm_cleanup_mux(). Such is the case in the following call trace: <TASK> __dump_stack lib/dump_stack.c:88 [inline] dump_stack_lvl+0x1e3/0x2cb lib/dump_stack.c:106 print_address_description+0x63/0x3b0 mm/kasan/report.c:248 __kasan_report mm/kasan/report.c:434 [inline] kasan_report+0x16b/0x1c0 mm/kasan/report.c:451 gsm_cleanup_mux+0x76a/0x850 drivers/tty/n_gsm.c:2397 gsm_config drivers/tty/n_gsm.c:2653 [inline] gsmld_ioctl+0xaae/0x15b0 drivers/tty/n_gsm.c:2986 tty_ioctl+0x8ff/0xc50 drivers/tty/tty_io.c:2816 vfs_ioctl fs/ioctl.c:51 [inline] __do_sys_ioctl fs/ioctl.c:874 [inline] __se_sys_ioctl+0xf1/0x160 fs/ioctl.c:860 do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:50 [inline] do_syscall_64+0x3d/0xb0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x61/0xcb </TASK> Allocated by task 3501: kasan_save_stack mm/kasan/common.c:38 [inline] kasan_set_track mm/kasan/common.c:46 [inline] set_alloc_info mm/kasan/common.c:434 [inline] ____kasan_kmalloc+0xba/0xf0 mm/kasan/common.c:513 kasan_kmalloc include/linux/kasan.h:264 [inline] kmem_cache_alloc_trace+0x143/0x290 mm/slub.c:3247 kmalloc include/linux/slab.h:591 [inline] kzalloc include/linux/slab.h:721 [inline] gsm_dlci_alloc+0x53/0x3a0 drivers/tty/n_gsm.c:1932 gsm_activate_mux+0x1c/0x330 drivers/tty/n_gsm.c:2438 gsm_config drivers/tty/n_gsm.c:2677 [inline] gsmld_ioctl+0xd46/0x15b0 drivers/tty/n_gsm.c:2986 tty_ioctl+0x8ff/0xc50 drivers/tty/tty_io.c:2816 vfs_ioctl fs/ioctl.c:51 [inline] __do_sys_ioctl fs/ioctl.c:874 [inline] __se_sys_ioctl+0xf1/0x160 fs/ioctl.c:860 do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:50 [inline] do_syscall_64+0x3d/0xb0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x61/0xcb Freed by task 3501: kasan_save_stack mm/kasan/common.c:38 [inline] kasan_set_track+0x4b/0x80 mm/kasan/common.c:46 kasan_set_free_info+0x1f/0x40 mm/kasan/generic.c:360 ____kasan_slab_free+0xd8/0x120 mm/kasan/common.c:366 kasan_slab_free include/linux/kasan.h:230 [inline] slab_free_hook mm/slub.c:1705 [inline] slab_free_freelist_hook+0xdd/0x160 mm/slub.c:1731 slab_free mm/slub.c:3499 [inline] kfree+0xf1/0x270 mm/slub.c:4559 dlci_put drivers/tty/n_gsm.c:1988 [inline] gsm_dlci_release drivers/tty/n_gsm.c:2021 [inline] gsm_cleanup_mux+0x574/0x850 drivers/tty/n_gsm.c:2415 gsm_config drivers/tty/n_gsm.c:2653 [inline] gsmld_ioctl+0xaae/0x15b0 drivers/tty/n_gsm.c:2986 tty_ioctl+0x8ff/0xc50 drivers/tty/tty_io.c:2816 vfs_ioctl fs/ioctl.c:51 [inline] __do_sys_ioctl fs/ioctl.c:874 [inline] __se_sys_ioctl+0xf1/0x160 fs/ioctl.c:860 do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:50 [inline] do_syscall_64+0x3d/0xb0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x61/0xcb This CVE ID has been rejected or withdrawn by its CVE Numbering Authority.
