| Subject: CVE-2023-52837: nbd: fix uaf in nbd_open |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| nbd: fix uaf in nbd_open |
| |
| Commit 4af5f2e03013 ("nbd: use blk_mq_alloc_disk and |
| blk_cleanup_disk") cleans up disk by blk_cleanup_disk() and it won't set |
| disk->private_data as NULL as before. UAF may be triggered in nbd_open() |
| if someone tries to open nbd device right after nbd_put() since nbd has |
| been free in nbd_dev_remove(). |
| |
| Fix this by implementing ->free_disk and free private data in it. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2023-52837 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: |
