Use is_being_destroyed flag to\nserialize destruction." } ], "metrics": [ { "cvssV3_1": { "version": "3.1", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H", "baseScore": 7.8, "baseSeverity": "HIGH" }, "scenarios": [ { "lang": "en", "value": "AV:L - The UAF is reached from kfd_ioctl_destroy_queue() via AMDKFD_IOC_DESTROY_QUEUE on /dev/kfd, which calls pqm_destroy_queue() then destroy_queue_cpsch() and wait_on_destroy_queue(); the trigger is that local ioctl, not a remote protocol message.\nAC:L - After kfd_ioctl_runtime_enable() and kfd_ioctl_set_debug_trap() (KFD_IOC_DBG_TRAP_ENABLE then KFD_IOC_DBG_TRAP_SUSPEND_QUEUES) set debug_trap_enabled and is_suspended, wait_on_destroy_queue() drops p->mutex; a sibling thread then issues a second AMDKFD_IOC_DESTROY_QUEUE (or KFD_IOC_DBG_TRAP_DISABLE then destroy) and frees the same struct queue while the first sleeps.\nPR:L - kfd_open() has no capable() check, and AMDKFD_IOC_CREATE_QUEUE, AMDKFD_IOC_DESTROY_QUEUE, AMDKFD_IOC_RUNTIME_ENABLE and AMDKFD_IOC_DBG_TRAP are registered with flags 0; kfd_ioctl_set_debug_trap() skips the ptrace check when target==p, so an unprivileged /dev/kfd (render-group) user can trap, suspend and destroy their own queues.\nUI:N - The attacker opens their own /dev/kfd fd, enables debug trap on their own pid via kfd_ioctl_set_debug_trap(), suspends the queue with KFD_IOC_DBG_TRAP_SUSPEND_QUEUES, and issues the concurrent AMDKFD_IOC_DESTROY_QUEUE ioctls; no other user must mount, open, or interact.\nS:U - The use-after-free of struct queue in wait_on_destroy_queue()/destroy_queue_cpsch() and the later uninit_queue() in pqm_destroy_queue() stays in the host kernel that runs amdkfd; it is not a KVM/Xen guest-to-host escape or an IOMMU/DMA isolation bypass.\nC:H - While wait_on_destroy_queue() still evaluates q->properties.is_suspended, the racing pqm_destroy_queue() path kfree()s the same struct queue via uninit_queue() and its MQD via mqd_mgr->free_mqd(); that slab UAF of kernel queue/MQD objects is an arbitrary-read primitive.\nI:H - The overlapping destroy_queue_cpsch() then pqm_destroy_queue() path list_del()s q->list and kfree()s both the queue and process_queue_node while the waiter still holds those pointers, so the slab can be sprayed into an arbitrary kernel write or control-flow hijack.\nA:H - Using the freed struct queue in wait_on_destroy_queue() or the rest of destroy_queue_cpsch() (list_del(&q->list), free_mqd, uninit_queue) oopses the kernel; a use-after-free is scored High for availability even when not fully exploited." } ] } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdkfd/kfd_device_queue_manager.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "a70a93fa568b4f05aba548dadb673703eccf5480", "lessThan": "090b51e2dabf88c02c0b6b25ea672a8bddfba7d5", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "a70a93fa568b4f05aba548dadb673703eccf5480", "lessThan": "41144829f4645c2bd4cb501d34d253858f750c0a", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "a70a93fa568b4f05aba548dadb673703eccf5480", "lessThan": "d98c8032c29944e1e572e1f49a0613d364fece0f", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "a70a93fa568b4f05aba548dadb673703eccf5480", "lessThan": "ac081deaf16a639ea7dff2f285fe421a33c1ade0", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" } ] }, { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdkfd/kfd_device_queue_manager.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "6.5", "status": "affected" }, { "version": "0", "lessThan": "6.5", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.6.158", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.6.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.12.111", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.12.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.18.53", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.2", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix" } ] } ], "cpeApplicability": [ { "nodes": [ { "operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [ { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.5", "versionEndExcluding": "6.6.158" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.5", "versionEndExcluding": "6.12.111" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.5", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.53" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.5", "versionEndExcluding": "7.2" } ] } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/090b51e2dabf88c02c0b6b25ea672a8bddfba7d5" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/41144829f4645c2bd4cb501d34d253858f750c0a" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d98c8032c29944e1e572e1f49a0613d364fece0f" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ac081deaf16a639ea7dff2f285fe421a33c1ade0" } ], "title": "drm/amdkfd: fix UAF race in destroy_queue_cpsch", "x_generator": { "engine": "bippy-1.2.0" } } } }
