| Subject: CVE-2022-48914: xen/netfront: destroy queues before real_num_tx_queues is zeroed |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| xen/netfront: destroy queues before real_num_tx_queues is zeroed |
| |
| xennet_destroy_queues() relies on info->netdev->real_num_tx_queues to |
| delete queues. Since d7dac083414eb5bb99a6d2ed53dc2c1b405224e5 |
| ("net-sysfs: update the queue counts in the unregistration path"), |
| unregister_netdev() indirectly sets real_num_tx_queues to 0. Those two |
| facts together means, that xennet_destroy_queues() called from |
| xennet_remove() cannot do its job, because it's called after |
| unregister_netdev(). This results in kfree-ing queues that are still |
| linked in napi, which ultimately crashes: |
| |

| Fix this by calling xennet_destroy_queues() from xennet_uninit(), |
| when real_num_tx_queues is still available. This ensures that queues are |
| destroyed when real_num_tx_queues is set to 0, regardless of how |
| unregister_netdev() was called. |

| 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: |
