Subject: [OE-core][PATCH v2 05/10] cve-exclusion: set status for CVE-2022-1247
Date: Mon,  3 Aug 2026 01:48:22 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260803084827.1348810-6-junjie.cao@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260803084827.1348810-1-junjie.cao@linux.dev>

The CVE describes a race between rose_connect() and the code that frees
a rose_neigh once its count and use fields reach zero.

Takamitsu Iwai's August 2025 series converts that field to a proper
reference count and removes the unlocked increment in rose_connect()
which is exactly the operation the CVE describes:

  https://git.kernel.org/linus/d860d1faa6b2ce3becfdb8b0c2b048ad31800061
  ("net: rose: convert 'use' field to refcount_t", v6.17)

  https://git.kernel.org/linus/da9c9c877597170b929a6121a68dcd3dd9a80f45
  ("net: rose: include node references in rose_neigh refcount", v6.17)

The first commit message states the premise of the CVE almost verbatim:
"The 'use' field in struct rose_neigh is used as a reference counter but
lacks atomicity. This can lead to race conditions where a rose_neigh
structure is freed while still being referenced by other code paths",
and its diff deletes the "rose->neighbour->use++;" statement from
rose_connect(). The second merges the separate count and use counters,
which is the other half of the condition described by the CVE, and
closes a syzbot-reported slab-use-after-free.

Both are in v6.17 and were backported to 6.1.y, 6.6.y, 6.12.y and
6.16.y in the 2025-09-02 stable round.

Kernels from v7.1 onwards are unaffected by construction, since the AX.25
and hamradio subsystems were removed:

  https://git.kernel.org/linus/dd8d4bc28ad7252610d8e79c1313a2d1e3499a51

The commits predate the association of this CVE with
any fix, so no tracker links them yet - Ubuntu, Debian and Red Hat all
still show the CVE as open. The identification above is based on the
commit contents matching the CVE description; the two 2022 rose patches
from Duoming Zhou that Ubuntu's tracker references fix different rose
bugs and are not the fix for this issue.

changes in v2:
- split out of the single combined patch, one CVE per patch as requested
- added primary source links (disclosures, distribution trackers, mailing
  list threads, upstream commits) to every commit message
- added the three CVEs with no upstream fix as "unpatched" entries instead
  of leaving them undocumented
- disclosed AI assistance per the contributor guide
