Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mISDN: annotate data-race around dev->work dev->work can re read locklessly in mISDN_read() and mISDN_poll(). Add READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() annotations. BUG: KCSAN: data-race in mISDN_ioctl / mISDN_read write to 0xffff88812d848280 of 4 bytes by task 10864 on cpu 1: misdn_add_timer drivers/isdn/mISDN/timerdev.c:175 [inline] mISDN_ioctl+0x2fb/0x550 drivers/isdn/mISDN/timerdev.c:233 vfs_ioctl fs/ioctl.c:51 [inline] __do_sys_ioctl fs/ioctl.c:597 [inline] __se_sys_ioctl+0xce/0x140 fs/ioctl.c:583 __x64_sys_ioctl+0x43/0x50 fs/ioctl.c:583 x64_sys_call+0x14b0/0x3000 arch/x86/include/generated/asm/syscalls_64.h:17 do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:63 [inline] do_syscall_64+0xd8/0x2c0 arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:94 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f read to 0xffff88812d848280 of 4 bytes by task 10857 on cpu 0: mISDN_read+0x1f2/0x470 drivers/isdn/mISDN/timerdev.c:112 do_loop_readv_writev fs/read_write.c:847 [inline] vfs_readv+0x3fb/0x690 fs/read_write.c:1020 do_readv+0xe7/0x210 fs/read_write.c:1080 __do_sys_readv fs/read_write.c:1165 [inline] __se_sys_readv fs/read_write.c:1162 [inline] __x64_sys_readv+0x45/0x50 fs/read_write.c:1162 x64_sys_call+0x2831/0x3000 arch/x86/include/generated/asm/syscalls_64.h:20 do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:63 [inline] do_syscall_64+0xd8/0x2c0 arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:94 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f value changed: 0x00000000 -> 0x00000001

Analysis

A data-race condition in the Linux kernel's mISDN subsystem allows local attackers with unprivileged access to cause a denial of service by triggering concurrent access to the dev->work field through ioctl and read operations without proper synchronization. The vulnerability affects the mISDN timer device driver where unsynchronized reads and writes to shared data can result in system availability issues. …
