UBUNTU-CVE-2024-48881: Medium severity ubuntu/linux-hwe-edge vulnerability

Q: What condition triggers the crash?

The NULL-pointer dereference can occur in cache_set_flush() when earlier registration fails before c->root has been allocated. In that case, c->root remains NULL and is added to the btree cache list after an insufficient IS_ERR() check.

Published Jan 11, 2025

Updated

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bcache: revert replacing ISERRORNULL with ISERR again Commit 028ddcac477b ("bcache: Remove unnecessary NULL point check in node allocations") leads a NULL pointer deference in cachesetflush(). 1721 if (!ISERRORNULL(c->root)) 1722 listadd(&c->root->list, &c->btreecache); >From the above code in cachesetflush(), if previous registration code fails before allocating c->root, it is possible c->root is NULL as what it is initialized. bchbtreenodealloc() never returns NULL but c->root is possible to be NULL at above line 1721. This patch replaces ISERR() by ISERRORNULL() to fix this.

Frequently Asked Questions

What condition triggers the crash?

The NULL-pointer dereference can occur in cache_set_flush() when earlier registration fails before c->root has been allocated. In that case, c->root remains NULL and is added to the btree cache list after an insufficient IS_ERR() check.

What level of access does an attacker need?

The supplied severity vector indicates local access and low privileges are required. No user interaction is required, and the reported impact is denial of service through high availability impact.

Which Ubuntu kernel packages are listed as affected?

The listed packages are ubuntu/linux, ubuntu/linux-aws, ubuntu/linux-azure, ubuntu/linux-gcp, ubuntu/linux-ibm, ubuntu/linux-oracle, ubuntu/linux-raspi, and ubuntu/linux-realtime.
