The first call prepares for\nDH-CHAP negotitation, and the second call is required for secure\nconcatenation. However, this change triggered BUG KASAN slab-use-after-\nfree in blk_mq_queue_tag_busy_iter(). This BUG can be recreated by\nrepeating the blktests test case nvme/063 a few times [1].\n\nWhen the BUG happens, nvme_tcp_create_ctrl() fails in the call chain\nbelow:\n\nnvme_tcp_create_ctrl()\n nvme_tcp_alloc_ctrl() new=true ... Alloc nvme_tcp_ctrl and admin_tag_set\n nvme_tcp_setup_ctrl() new=true\n nvme_tcp_configure_admin_queue() new=true ... Succeed\n nvme_alloc_admin_tag_set() ...

Fail, but do not call nvme_remove_admin_tag_set()\n nvme_uninit_ctrl()\n nvme_put_ctrl() ... Free up the nvme_tcp_ctrl and admin_tag_set\n\nThe first call of nvme_tcp_configure_admin_queue() succeeds with\nnew=true argument. The second call fails with new=false argument. This\nsecond call does not call nvme_remove_admin_tag_set() on failure, due to\nthe new=false argument. Then the admin tag set is not removed. However,\nnvme_tcp_create_ctrl() assumes that nvme_tcp_setup_ctrl() would call\nnvme_remove_admin_tag_set(). Then it frees up struct nvme_tcp_ctrl which\nhas admin_tag_set field. Later on, the timeout handler accesses the\nadmin_tag_set field and causes the BUG KASAN slab-use-after-free.\n\nTo not leave the admin tag set, call nvme_remove_admin_tag_set() when\nthe second nvme_tcp_configure_admin_queue() call fails. Do not return\nfrom nvme_tcp_setup_ctrl() on failure. Instead, jump to \"destroy_admin\"\ngo-to label to call nvme_tcp_teardown_admin_queue() which calls\nnvme_remove_admin_tag_set()."}, {"lang": "es", "value": "En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: nvme-tcp: eliminar el conjunto de etiquetas cuando falla la configuraci\u00f3n de la segunda cola de administraci\u00f3n.

Sin embargo, este cambio activ\u00f3 el error \"slab-use-after-free\" en blk_mq_queue_tag_busy_iter()\". Este error se puede recrear repitiendo el caso de prueba blktests nvme/063 varias veces [1].

Libera nvme_tcp_ctrl y admin_tag_set La primera llamada de nvme_tcp_configure_admin_queue() tiene \u00e9xito con el argumento new=true. La segunda llamada falla con el argumento new=false. Esta segunda llamada no llama a nvme_remove_admin_tag_set() en caso de error, debido al argumento new=false. Entonces, el conjunto de etiquetas admin no se elimina. Sin embargo, nvme_tcp_create_ctrl() supone que nvme_tcp_setup_ctrl() llamar\u00eda a nvme_remove_admin_tag_set(). Luego libera la estructura nvme_tcp_ctrl que tiene el campo admin_tag_set. Posteriormente, el controlador de tiempo de espera accede al campo admin_tag_set y provoca el error \"BUG KASAN slab-use-after-free\". Para mantener la etiqueta admin activa, llame a nvme_remove_admin_tag_set() cuando falle la segunda llamada a nvme_tcp_configure_admin_queue(). No regrese de nvme_tcp_setup_ctrl() en caso de error.
