n the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/shmem-helper: Fix BUG_ON() on mmap(PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE) Lack of check for copy-on-write (COW) mapping in drm_gem_shmem_mmap allows users to call mmap with PROT_WRITE and MAP_PRIVATE flag causing a kernel panic due to BUG_ON in vmf_insert_pfn_prot: BUG_ON((vma->vm_flags & VM_PFNMAP) && is_cow_mapping(vma->vm_flags)); Return -EINVAL early if COW mapping is detected. This bug affects all drm drivers using default shmem helpers. It can be reproduced by this simple example: void *ptr = mmap(0, size, PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE, fd, mmap_offset); ptr[0] = 0;

Summary
  • (es) En el kernel de Linux, se resolvió la siguiente vulnerabilidad: drm/shmem-helper: corrige BUG_ON() en mmap(PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE) La falta de verificación para el mapeo de copia en escritura (COW) en drm_gem_shmem_mmap permite a los usuarios llamar a mmap con Los indicadores PROT_WRITE y MAP_PRIVATE causan un pánico en el kernel debido a BUG_ON en vmf_insert_pfn_prot: BUG_ON((vma->vm_flags & VM_PFNMAP) && is_cow_mapping(vma->vm_flags)); Devuelva -EINVAL temprano si se detecta el mapeo COW. Este error afecta a todos los controladores drm que utilizan ayudantes shmem predeterminados. Se puede reproducir con este sencillo ejemplo: void *ptr = mmap(0, size, PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE, fd, mmap_offset); ptr[0] = 0;
