UBUNTU-CVE-2022-49026: Use After Free

Q: What conditions are required to trigger this issue?

The vulnerable path is reached when the e100 driver cannot map a socket buffer during transmit preparation. The driver returns a busy status that causes the upper networking layer to resend a buffer that has already been freed.

Q: Who is exposed?

Systems using the Linux e100 network driver may be exposed. The affected Ubuntu kernel package families listed are linux, linux-aws, linux-aws-fips, linux-azure, linux-fips, linux-gcp, linux-kvm, and linux-oracle.

Q: What is the impact of successful exploitation?

This is a use-after-free condition in the transmit path. The supplied severity vector rates confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact as high, with local access and low privileges required.

Updated

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: e100: Fix possible use after free in e100xmitprepare In e100xmitprepare(), if we can't map the skb, then return -ENOMEM, so e100xmitframe() will return NETDEVTXBUSY and the upper layer will resend the skb. But the skb is already freed, which will cause UAF bug when the upper layer resends the skb. Remove the harmful free.

DescriptionSeverityAffected Software

Frequently Asked Questions

What conditions are required to trigger this issue?

The vulnerable path is reached when the e100 driver cannot map a socket buffer during transmit preparation. The driver returns a busy status that causes the upper networking layer to resend a buffer that has already been freed.

Who is exposed?

Systems using the Linux e100 network driver may be exposed. The affected Ubuntu kernel package families listed are linux, linux-aws, linux-aws-fips, linux-azure, linux-fips, linux-gcp, linux-kvm, and linux-oracle.

What is the impact of successful exploitation?

This is a use-after-free condition in the transmit path. The supplied severity vector rates confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact as high, with local access and low privileges required.
