Summary

Vulnerability in linux-hwe-edge (UBUNTU-CVE-2023-53630). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommufd: Fix unpinning of pages when an access is present syzkaller found that the calculation of batch_last_index should use 'start_index' since at input to this function the batch is either empty or it has already been adjusted to cross any accesses so it will start at the point we are unmapping from. Getting this wrong causes the unmap to run over the end of the pages which corrupts pages that were never mapped. In most cases this triggers the num pinned debugging: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 557 at drivers/iommu/iommufd/pages.c:294 __iopt_area_unfill_domain+0x152/0x560 Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 557 Comm: repro Not tainted 6.3.0-rc2-eeac8ede1755 #1 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.16.0-0-gd239552ce722-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:__iopt_area_unfill_domain+0x152/0x560 Code: d2 0f ff 44 8b 64 24 54 48 8b 44 24 48 31 ff 44 89 e6 48 89 44 24 38 e8 fc d3 0f ff 45 85 e4 0f 85 eb 01 00 00 e8 0e d2 0f ff <0f> 0b e8 07 d2 0f ff 48 8b 44 24 38 89 5c 24 58 89 18 8b 44 24 54 RSP: 0018:ffffc9000108baf0 EFLAGS: 00010246 RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: 00000000ffffffff RCX: ffffffff821e3f85 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: ffff88800faf0000 RDI: 0000000000000002 RBP: ffffc9000108bd18 R08: 000000000003ca25 R09: 0000000000000014 R10: 000000000003ca00 R11: 0000000000000024 R12: 0000000000000004 R13: 0000000000000801 R14: 00000000000007ff R15: 0000000000000800 FS: 00007…

Response actions

Concrete steps and command examples for SOC/SRE teams to execute in order

  1. 1
    Identify exposure identify
    grep -r 'linux-hwe-edge' . | grep -v node_modules

    リポジトリと本番環境の依存ファイル (package-lock.json / requirements.txt / go.sum / Gemfile.lock 等) で linux-hwe-edge を grep し、稼働しているサービス・バージョンを把握する。

  2. 2
    Post-deployment verification verify
    Confirm patched version is live in production

    パッチ適用後、ステージングで PoC または同等の悪用パターンを再現して脆弱性が閉じたことを確認。本番ではアクセスログ・WAF でアラート再発が無いか継続監視。
