| Subject: CVE-2023-52700: tipc: fix kernel warning when sending SYN message |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| tipc: fix kernel warning when sending SYN message |
| |
| When sending a SYN message, this kernel stack trace is observed: |
| |
| ... |
| [ 13.396352] RIP: 0010:_copy_from_iter+0xb4/0x550 |
| ... |

| |
| It is because commit a41dad905e5a ("iov_iter: saner checks for attempt |
| to copy to/from iterator") has introduced sanity check for copying |
| from/to iov iterator. Lacking of copy direction from the iterator |
| viewpoint would lead to kernel stack trace like above. |
| |
| This commit fixes this issue by initializing the iov iterator with |
| the correct copy direction when sending SYN or ACK without data. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2023-52700 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/54b6082aec178f16ad6d193b4ecdc9c4823d9a32 |
