| Subject: CVE-2024-35934: net/smc: reduce rtnl pressure in smc_pnet_create_pnetids_list() |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| net/smc: reduce rtnl pressure in smc_pnet_create_pnetids_list() |
| |
| Many syzbot reports show extreme rtnl pressure, and many of them hint |
| that smc acquires rtnl in netns creation for no good reason [1] |
| |
| This patch returns early from smc_pnet_net_init() |
| if there is no netdevice yet. |
| |
| I am not even sure why smc_pnet_create_pnetids_list() even exists, |
| because smc_pnet_netdev_event() is also calling |
| smc_pnet_add_base_pnetid() when handling NETDEV_UP event. |
| |

| 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: |
