jira VULN-9261 cve CVE-2024-0562 commit-author Khazhismel Kumykov <[email protected]> commit f87904c When a disk is removed, bdi_unregister gets called to stop further writeback and wait for associated delayed work to complete. However, wb_inode_writeback_end() may schedule bandwidth estimation dwork after this has completed, which can result in the timer attempting to access the just freed bdi_writeback. Fix this by checking if the bdi_writeback is alive, similar to when scheduling writeback work. Since this requires wb->work_lock, and wb_inode_writeback_end() may get called from interrupt, switch wb->work_lock to an irqsafe lock.

…find_and_get_node_by_id() JIRA: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-118965 commit 4207b55 Author: Tejun Heo <[email protected]> Date: Tue Jan 9 11:48:04 2024 -1000 kernfs: RCU protect kernfs_nodes and avoid kernfs_idr_lock in kernfs_find_and_get_node_by_id() The BPF helper bpf_cgroup_from_id() calls kernfs_find_and_get_node_by_id() which acquires kernfs_idr_lock, which is an non-raw non-IRQ-safe lock. This can lead to deadlocks as bpf_cgroup_from_id() can be called from any BPF programs including e.g. the ones that attach to functions which are holding the scheduler rq lock. Consider the following BPF program: SEC("fentry/__set_cpus_allowed_ptr_locked") int BPF_PROG(__set_cpus_allowed_ptr_locked, struct task_struct *p, struct affinity_context *affn_ctx, struct rq *rq, struct rq_flags *rf) { struct cgroup *cgrp = bpf_cgroup_from_id(p->cgroups->dfl_cgrp->kn->id); if (cgrp) { bpf_printk("%d[%s] in %s", p->pid, p->comm, cgrp->kn->name); bpf_cgroup_release(cgrp); } return 0; } __set_cpus_allowed_ptr_locked() is called with rq lock held and the above BPF program calls bpf_cgroup_from_id() within leading to the following lockdep warning: ===================================================== WARNING: HARDIRQ-safe -> HARDIRQ-unsafe lock order detected 6.7.0-rc3-work-00053-g07124366a1d7-dirty #147 Not tainted ----------------------------------------------------- repro/1620 [HC0[0]:SC0[0]:HE0:SE1] is trying to acquire: ffffffff833b3688 (kernfs_idr_lock){+.+.}-{2:2}, at: kernfs_find_and_get_node_by_id+0x1e/0x70 and this task is already holding: ffff888237ced698 (&rq->__lock){-.-.}-{2:2}, at: task_rq_lock+0x4e/0xf0 which would create a new lock dependency: (&rq->__lock){-.-.}-{2:2} -> (kernfs_idr_lock){+.+.}-{2:2} ...

This adds an rcu_head to kernfs_node making it larger by 16 bytes on 64bit. Combined with the preceding rearrange patch, the net increase is 8 bytes.
