| Subject: CVE-2021-47366: afs: Fix corruption in reads at fpos 2G-4G from an OpenAFS server |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| afs: Fix corruption in reads at fpos 2G-4G from an OpenAFS server |
| |
| AFS-3 has two data fetch RPC variants, FS.FetchData and FS.FetchData64, and |
| Linux's afs client switches between them when talking to a non-YFS server |
| if the read size, the file position or the sum of the two have the upper 32 |
| bits set of the 64-bit value. |
| |
| This is a problem, however, since the file position and length fields of |
| FS.FetchData are *signed* 32-bit values. |
| |
| Fix this by capturing the capability bits obtained from the fileserver when |
| it's sent an FS.GetCapabilities RPC, rather than just discarding them, and |
| then picking out the VICED_CAPABILITY_64BITFILES flag. This can then be |
| used to decide whether to use FS.FetchData or FS.FetchData64 - and also |
| FS.StoreData or FS.StoreData64 - rather than using upper_32_bits() to |
| switch on the parameter values. |
| |
| This capabilities flag could also be used to limit the maximum size of the |
| file, but all servers must be checked for that. |
| |
| Note that the issue does not exist with FS.StoreData - that uses *unsigned* |
| 32-bit values. It's also not a problem with Auristor servers as its |
| YFS.FetchData64 op uses unsigned 64-bit values. |
| |
| This can be tested by cloning a git repo through an OpenAFS client to an |
| OpenAFS server and then doing "git status" on it from a Linux afs |
| client[1]. Provided the clone has a pack file that's in the 2G-4G range, |
| the git status will show errors like: |
| |
| error: packfile .git/objects/pack/pack-5e813c51d12b6847bbc0fcd97c2bca66da50079c.pack does not match index |
| error: packfile .git/objects/pack/pack-5e813c51d12b6847bbc0fcd97c2bca66da50079c.pack does not match index |
| |
| This can be observed in the server's FileLog with something like the |
| following appearing: |
| |
| Sun Aug 29 19:31:39 2021 SRXAFS_FetchData, Fid = 2303380852.491776.3263114, Host 192.168.11.201:7001, Id 1001 |

| ... |
| Sun Aug 29 19:31:40 2021 SRXAFS_FetchData returns 5 |
| |
| Note the file position of 18446744071815340032. This is the requested file |
| position sign-extended. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2021-47366 to this issue. |

| Mitigation |
| ========== |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest |
| stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual |
| changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel |
| release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or |
| supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to |
| the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this |
| issue can be found at these commits: |
| https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e66fc460d6dcf85cf12288e133a081205aebcd97 |
