| Subject: CVE-2024-58085: tomoyo: don't emit warning in tomoyo_write_control() |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| tomoyo: don't emit warning in tomoyo_write_control() |
| |
| syzbot is reporting too large allocation warning at tomoyo_write_control(), |
| for one can write a very very long line without new line character. To fix |
| this warning, I use __GFP_NOWARN rather than checking for KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE, |
| for practically a valid line should be always shorter than 32KB where the |
| "too small to fail" memory-allocation rule applies. |
| |
| One might try to write a valid line that is longer than 32KB, but such |
| request will likely fail with -ENOMEM. Therefore, I feel that separately |
| returning -EINVAL when a line is longer than KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE is redundant. |
| There is no need to distinguish over-32KB and over-KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-58085 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: |
