Consequently,\nif the code in pressure_write(), specifically the section handling the\nctx variable executes after cgroup_file_release() has completed, a uaf\nvulnerability involving of-\u003epriv is triggered.\n\nTherefore, the issue can be resolved by extending the scope of the\ncgroup_mutex lock within pressure_write() to encompass all code paths\ninvolving of-\u003epriv, thereby properly synchronizing the race condition\noccurring between cgroup_file_release() and pressure_write().\n\nAnd, if an live kn lock can be successfully acquired while executing\nthe pressure write operation, it indicates that the cgroup deletion\nprocess has not yet reached its final stage; consequently, the priv\npointer within open_file cannot be NULL. Therefore, the operation to\nretrieve the ctx value must be moved to a point *after* the live kn\nlock has been successfully acquired.\n\nIn another situation, specifically after entering cgroup_kn_lock_live()\nbut before acquiring cgroup_mutex, there exists a different class of\nrace condition:\n\nCPU0: write memory.pressure CPU1: write cgroup.pressure=0\n===========================\t\t =============================\n\nkernfs_fop_write_iter()\n kernfs_get_active_of(of)\n pressure_write()\n cgroup_kn_lock_live(memory.pressure)\n cgroup_tryget(cgrp)\n kernfs_break_active_protection(kn)\n ... blocks on cgroup_mutex\n\n \t cgroup_pressure_write()\n \t cgroup_kn_lock_live(cgroup.pressure)\n \t cgroup_file_show(memory.pressure, false)\n \t kernfs_show(false)\n \t kernfs_drain_open_files()\n \t cgroup_file_release(of)\n \t kfree(ctx)\n \t of-\u003epriv = NULL\n \t cgroup_kn_unlock()\n\n ... acquires cgroup_mutex\n ctx = of-\u003epriv; // may now be NULL\n if (ctx-\u003epsi.trigger) // NULL dereference\n\nConsequently, there is a possibility that of-\u003epriv is NULL, the pressure\nwrite needs to check for this.\n\nNow that the scope of the cgroup_mutex has been expanded, the original\nexplicit cgroup_get/put operations are no longer necessary, this is\nbecause acquiring/releasing the live kn lock inherently executes a\ncgroup get/put operation.\n\n[1]\nBUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in pressure_write+0xa4/0x210 kernel/cgroup/cgroup.c:4011\nCall Trace:\n pressure_write+0xa4/0x210 kernel/cgroup/cgroup.c:4011\n cgroup_file_write+0x36f/0x790 kernel/cgroup/cgroup.c:43\n---truncated---" affected: [{"versions":[{"version":"0e94682b73bfa6c44c98af7a26771c9c08c055d5","status":"affected","versionType":"git","lessThan":"d8ddbc3330fa6851c56b046e630a8fc64830a0ce"},{"version":"0e94682b73bfa6c44c98af7a26771c9c08c055d5","status":"affected","versionType":"git","lessThan":"af0638534bfae7980582c6482531a0872f8ee341"},{"version":"0e94682b73bfa6c44c98af7a26771c9c08c055d5","status":"affected","versionType":"git","lessThan":"03dc070fa0fc3cb4068693f468ccd5f8a7e58282"},{"version":"0e94682b73bfa6c44c98af7a26771c9c08c055d5","status":"affected","versionType":"git","lessThan":"d4352c0709bfd38c752fccbde7fd72a82ac78f23"},{"version":"0e94682b73bfa6c44c98af7a26771c9c08c055d5","status":"affected","versionType":"git","lessThan":"a5b98009f16d8a5fb4a8ff9a193f5735515c38fa"}],"vendor":"Linux","product":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected"},{"versions":[{"version":"5.2","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver","lessThan":"5.2"},{"version":"6.6.160","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver","lessThanOrEqual":"6.6.*"},{"version":"6.12.114","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*"},{"version":"6.18.33","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*"},{"version":"7.0.10","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver","lessThanOrEqual":"7.0.*"},{"version":"7.1","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix","lessThanOrEqual":"*"}],"vendor":"Linux","product":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected"}] ## Licenças e atribuição das fontes CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities: https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog (US government work) GitHub Advisory Database: https://github.com/advisories (CC BY 4.0) Have I Been Pwned: https://haveibeenpwned.com/ (CC BY 4.0) CVE Program (CVE records): https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse (CVE Terms of Use) Copyright © 1999-2026, The MITRE Corporation.
