[PATCH net v2 0/2] tcp: fix use-after-free in do_tcp_getsockopt()

[PATCH net v2 0/2] tcp: fix use-after-free in do_tcp_getsockopt()

[Cen Zhang (Microsoft)]

From: "Cen Zhang (Microsoft Security FORGE Labs)" <blbllhy@gmail.com>

do_tcp_getsockopt() has two lockless reads of icsk_ca_ops. Since BPF
struct_ops congestion control made icsk_ca_ops point to dynamically
allocated memory, a concurrent setsockopt(TCP_CONGESTION) can replace
the pointer and free the old object while either reader is using it.

Patch 1 fixes the TCP_CONGESTION path by copying ca_ops->name to a
stack buffer while holding rcu_read_lock(). It also uses READ_ONCE()
for the lockless load and annotates every explicit icsk_ca_ops store
with WRITE_ONCE().

Patch 2 fixes the TCP_CC_INFO path by keeping the READ_ONCE() load,
ca_ops->get_info lookup, and call inside an RCU read-side critical
section.

Changes since v1 [1]:
- Add READ_ONCE() to both lockless icsk_ca_ops loads.
- Add WRITE_ONCE() to all six explicit icsk_ca_ops stores.
- Include the data-race annotations in the UAF series as requested
  by Eric Dumazet [2].

[PATCH net v2 1/2] tcp: fix use-after-free in do_tcp_getsockopt(TCP_CONGESTION)

[Cen Zhang (Microsoft)]

From: "Cen Zhang (Microsoft Security FORGE Labs)" <blbllhy@gmail.com>

do_tcp_getsockopt() reads icsk->icsk_ca_ops->name without holding
rcu_read_lock(). Since commit 0baf26b0fcd7 ("bpf: tcp: Support
tcp_congestion_ops in bpf"), icsk_ca_ops can point to dynamically
allocated BPF struct_ops memory that may be freed concurrently via
setsockopt(TCP_CONGESTION), leading to a use-after-free.

  BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in _copy_to_user+0x37/0x60
  Read of size 16 at addr ffff888013505260 by task exploit/149
   _copy_to_user+0x37/0x60
   do_tcp_getsockopt+0x158a/0x2460 (net/ipv4/tcp.c:4585)
   tcp_getsockopt+0x91/0xf0
   __sys_getsockopt+0xf7/0x170

Fix this by holding rcu_read_lock() around the ca_ops->name access,
using READ_ONCE() to load icsk_ca_ops, and copying the name to a
stack buffer before releasing the lock. Also annotate every explicit
icsk_ca_ops store with WRITE_ONCE() to fix the accompanying KCSAN
data-race issue.

Note: The adjacent TCP_ULP case has a similar read pattern on
icsk_ulp_ops->name, but icsk_ulp_ops always points to static
module data (no BPF struct_ops equivalent), so it is not affected.

Changes in v2:
- Add READ_ONCE() for the icsk_ca_ops load.
- Add WRITE_ONCE() for every explicit icsk_ca_ops store.

It looks like you (or your assistant) forgot to declare ca_ops:

  const struct tcp_congestion_ops *ca_ops;

Also, I *guess* a 'rcu_read_lock' is needed in mptcp_ca_reset() from
net/mptcp/protocol.c, above the modification you did, to get the name, no?

Apart from that, the modifications look good to me.

Cheers,
Matt

Thanks for catching this. I messed up the local version and missed the
undeclared ca_ops. I will fix it in v3.

I also checked mptcp_ca_reset(). It is only called before the socket is
published (mptcp_init_sock) or with the socket lock held
(mptcp_disconnect). The ca_ops->name copy sits between
tcp_assign_congestion_control() and tcp_cleanup_congestion_control(), so
the ops object stays referenced and that read is already safe. The v2
WRITE_ONCE() on the subsequent NULL store is on the MPTCP meta socket,
not the TCP sockets these two UAFs race with, so I will drop it in v3.

Thanks,
Cen

[Severity: Low]
Does this introduce a compilation error in do_tcp_getsockopt() because ca_ops
is used but never declared in the TCP_CONGESTION block?

It appears ca_ops is scoped only inside the adjacent TCP_CC_INFO case block
and is not declared at the function level or within this block, which will
cause a build failure.

[PATCH net v2 2/2] tcp: fix use-after-free in do_tcp_getsockopt(TCP_CC_INFO)

[Cen Zhang (Microsoft)]

From: "Cen Zhang (Microsoft Security FORGE Labs)" <blbllhy@gmail.com>

do_tcp_getsockopt() reads icsk->icsk_ca_ops and dereferences the
get_info function pointer without rcu_read_lock(). With BPF struct_ops
congestion control, ca_ops can point to dynamically allocated memory
that is freed concurrently, resulting in a use-after-free when the
kernel dereferences or calls through the stale pointer.

  BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in do_tcp_getsockopt+0x2037/0x23e0
  Read of size 8 at addr ffff888013701258 by task exploit/149

   tcp_getsockopt+0x91/0xf0
   __sys_getsockopt+0xf7/0x170

Fix this by wrapping the ca_ops load and get_info call within
rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock(), and using READ_ONCE() to load
the icsk_ca_ops pointer.

Hi Cen,

Thank you for your modifications, that's great!

Our CI did some validations and here is its report:

- KVM Validation: normal (except selftest_mptcp_join): Script error! ❓
- KVM Validation: normal (only selftest_mptcp_join): Script error! ❓
- KVM Validation: debug (except selftest_mptcp_join): Script error! ❓
- KVM Validation: debug (only selftest_mptcp_join): Script error! ❓
- KVM Validation: btf-normal (only bpftest_all): Script error! ❓

If there are some issues, you can reproduce them using the same environment as
the one used by the CI thanks to a docker image, e.g.:

    $ cd [kernel source code]
    $ docker run -v "${PWD}:${PWD}:rw" -w "${PWD}" --privileged --rm -it \
        --pull always mptcp/mptcp-upstream-virtme-docker:latest \
        auto-normal

For more details:

Please note that despite all the efforts that have been already done to have a
stable tests suite when executed on a public CI like here, it is possible some
reported issues are not due to your modifications. Still, do not hesitate to
help us improve that ;-)
