Subject: CVE-2024-45013: nvme: move stopping keep-alive into nvme_uninit_ctrl()
Date: Wed, 11 Sep 2024 17:14:09 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <2024091107-CVE-2024-45013-8efe@gregkh> (raw)
Description
===========
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvme: move stopping keep-alive into nvme_uninit_ctrl()
Commit 4733b65d82bd ("nvme: start keep-alive after admin queue setup")
moves starting keep-alive from nvme_start_ctrl() into
nvme_init_ctrl_finish(), but don't move stopping keep-alive into
nvme_uninit_ctrl(), so keep-alive work can be started and keep pending
after failing to start controller, finally use-after-free is triggered if
nvme host driver is unloaded.
This patch fixes kernel panic when running nvme/004 in case that connection
failure is triggered, by moving stopping keep-alive into nvme_uninit_ctrl().
This way is reasonable because keep-alive is now started in
nvme_init_ctrl_finish().
The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-45013 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========
The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
