Re: CVE-2024-50106: nfsd: fix race between laundromat and free_stateid

[Li Lingfeng]

Hi,
after analysis, we think that this issue is not introduced by commit
2d4a532d385f ("nfsd: ensure that clp->cl_revoked list is protected by
clp->cl_lock") but by commit 83e733161fde ("nfsd: avoid race after
unhash_delegation_locked()").
Therefore, kernel versions earlier than 6.9 do not involve this issue.

// normal case 1 -- free deleg by delegreturn
1) OP_DELEGRETURN
nfsd4_delegreturn
  nfsd4_lookup_stateid
  destroy_delegation
   destroy_unhashed_deleg
    nfs4_unlock_deleg_lease
     vfs_setlease // unlock
  nfs4_put_stid // put last refcount
   idr_remove // remove from cl_stateids
   s->sc_free // free deleg

2) OP_FREE_STATEID
nfsd4_free_stateid
  find_stateid_locked // can not find the deleg in cl_stateids


// normal case 2 -- free deleg by laundromat
nfs4_laundromat
  state_expired
  unhash_delegation_locked // set NFS4_REVOKED_DELEG_STID
  list_add // add the deleg to reaplist
  list_first_entry // get the deleg from reaplist
  revoke_delegation
   destroy_unhashed_deleg
    nfs4_unlock_deleg_lease
    nfs4_put_stid


// abnormal case
nfs4_laundromat
  state_expired
  unhash_delegation_locked
   // set NFS4_REVOKED_DELEG_STID
  list_add
   // add the deleg to reaplist
                                 1) OP_DELEGRETURN
                                 nfsd4_delegreturn
                                  nfsd4_lookup_stateid
nfsd4_stid_check_stateid_generation
                                   nfsd4_verify_open_stid
                                    // check NFS4_REVOKED_DELEG_STID
                                    // and return nfserr_deleg_revoked
                                  // skip destroy_delegation

                                 2) OP_FREE_STATEID
                                 nfsd4_free_stateid
                                  // check NFS4_REVOKED_DELEG_STID
                                  list_del_init
                                   // remove deleg from reaplist
                                  nfs4_put_stid
                                   // free deleg
  list_first_entry
   // cant not get the deleg from reaplist


Before commit 83e733161fde ("nfsd: avoid race after
unhash_delegation_locked()"), nfs4_laundromat --> unhash_delegation_locked
would not set NFS4_REVOKED_DELEG_STID for the deleg.
So the description "it marks the delegation stid revoked" in the CVE fix
patch does not hold true. And the OP_FREE_STATEID operation will not
release the deleg.

Thanks.

Thanks for the research.  If the maintainers involved agree, we'll be
glad to add a .vulnerable file to our git repo and regenerate the json
entry to reflect this starting point for the issue.

Hi Greg,

As mentioned earlier, our reviewers felt that this bug would indeed be
difficult or impossible to reproduce before 83e733161fde, and there
have been no reports of similar crash symptoms in kernels before v6.9.

No objection to updating the CVE to reflect that.

A more practical question is: has anyone reproduced the reported crash
on a pre-v6.9 kernel?

I recall (dimly) that we knew that 8dd91e8d31fe ("nfsd: fix race between
laundromat and free_stateid") could not be cleanly applied before v6.9.
It was less clear at the time whether a more extensive LTS backport
would be required.

>> This patch proposes a fixed that's based on adding 2 new additional
>> stid's sc_status values that help coordinate between the laundromat
>> and other operations (nfsd4_free_stateid() and nfsd4_delegreturn()).
>>
>> First to make sure, that once the stid is marked revoked, it is not
>> removed by the nfsd4_free_stateid(), the laundromat take a reference
>> on the stateid. Then, coordinating whether the stid has been put
>> on the cl_revoked list or we are processing FREE_STATEID and need to
>> make sure to remove it from the list, each check that state and act
>> accordingly. If laundromat has added to the cl_revoke list before
>> the arrival of FREE_STATEID, then nfsd4_free_stateid() knows to remove
>> it from the list. If nfsd4_free_stateid() finds that operations arrived
>> before laundromat has placed it on cl_revoke list, it marks the state
>> freed and then laundromat will no longer add it to the list.
>>
>> Also, for nfsd4_delegreturn() when looking for the specified stid,
>> we need to access stid that are marked removed or freeable, it means
>> the laundromat has started processing it but hasn't finished and this
>> delegreturn needs to return nfserr_deleg_revoked and not
>> nfserr_bad_stateid. The latter will not trigger a FREE_STATEID and the
>> lack of it will leave this stid on the cl_revoked list indefinitely.

>> ==========
>>
>> The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest

>> 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:
