CVE-2024-35811 HIGH

Published: 2024-05-17 | Last Modified: 2026-08-04 | Status: Modified

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: brcmfmac: Fix use-after-free bug in brcmf_cfg80211_detach This is the candidate patch of CVE-2023-47233 : https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-47233 In brcm80211 driver,it starts with the following invoking chain to start init a timeout worker: ->brcmf_usb_probe ->brcmf_usb_probe_cb ->brcmf_attach ->brcmf_bus_started ->brcmf_cfg80211_attach ->wl_init_priv ->brcmf_init_escan ->INIT_WORK(&cfg->escan_timeout_work, brcmf_cfg80211_escan_timeout_worker); If we disconnect the USB by hotplug, it will call brcmf_usb_disconnect to make cleanup. The invoking chain is : brcmf_usb_disconnect ->brcmf_usb_disconnect_cb ->brcmf_detach ->brcmf_cfg80211_detach ->kfree(cfg); While the timeout woker may still be running. This will cause a use-after-free bug on cfg in brcmf_cfg80211_escan_timeout_worker. Fix it by deleting the timer and canceling the worker in brcmf_cfg80211_detach. [[email protected]: keep timer delete as is and cancel work just before free]

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: wifi: brcmfmac: corregido el error de use after free en brcmf_cfg80211_detach Este es el parche candidato de CVE-2023-47233: https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail /CVE-2023-47233 En el controlador brcm80211, comienza con la siguiente cadena de invocación para iniciar un trabajador de tiempo de espera: ->brcmf_usb_probe ->brcmf_usb_probe_cb ->brcmf_attach ->brcmf_bus_started ->brcmf_cfg80211_attach ->wl_init_priv ->brcmf_init_escan ->INIT_WORK(&cfg ->escan_timeout_work, brcmf_cfg80211_escan_timeout_worker); Si desconectamos el USB mediante hotplug, llamará a brcmf_usb_disconnect para realizar la limpieza. La cadena de invocación es: brcmf_usb_disconnect ->brcmf_usb_disconnect_cb ->brcmf_detach ->brcmf_cfg80211_detach ->kfree(cfg); Mientras que el activador de tiempo de espera aún puede estar ejecutándose. Esto provocará un error de use after free en cfg en brcmf_cfg80211_escan_timeout_worker. Soluciónelo eliminando el temporizador y cancelando el trabajador en brcmf_cfg80211_detach. [[email protected]: mantenga la eliminación del temporizador tal como está y cancele el trabajo justo antes de liberarlo]
