by\nima_filter_rule_match()\") introduced call to ima_lsm_copy_rule within a\nRCU read-side critical section which contains kmalloc with GFP_KERNEL.\nThis implies a possible sleep and violates limitations of RCU read-side\ncritical sections on non-PREEMPT systems.\n\nSleeping within RCU read-side critical section might cause\nsynchronize_rcu() returning early and break RCU protection, allowing a\nUAF to happen.\n\nThe root cause of this issue could be described as follows:\n|\tThread A\t|\tThread B\t|\n|\t\t\t|ima_match_policy\t|\n|\t\t\t| rcu_read_lock\t|\n|ima_lsm_update_rule\t|\t\t\t|\n| synchronize_rcu\t|\t\t\t|\n|\t\t\t| kmalloc(GFP_KERNEL)|\n|\t\t\t| sleep\t\t|\n==> synchronize_rcu returns early\n| kfree(entry)\t\t|\t\t\t|\n|\t\t\t| entry = entry->next|\n==> UAF happens and entry now becomes NULL (or could be anything).\n|\t\t\t| entry->action\t|\n==> Accessing entry might cause panic.\n\nTo fix this issue, we are converting all kmalloc that is called within\nRCU read-side critical section to use GFP_ATOMIC.\n\n[PM: fixed missing comment, long lines, !CONFIG_IMA_LSM_RULES case]"}],

Esto implica una posible suspensi\u00f3n y viola las limitaciones de las secciones cr\u00edticas del lado de lectura de RCU en sistemas que no son PREEMPT. Dormir dentro de la secci\u00f3n cr\u00edtica del lado de lectura de la RCU puede provocar que sincronizar_rcu() regrese antes de tiempo y rompa la protecci\u00f3n de la RCU, lo que permite que se produzca una UAF. La causa ra\u00edz de este problema podr\u00eda describirse de la siguiente manera: | Hilo A | Hilo B | | |ima_match_policy | | | rcu_read_lock | |ima_lsm_update_rule | | | sincronizar_rcu | | | | kmalloc(GFP_KERNEL)| | | dormir | ==&gt; sincronizar_rcu regresa temprano | kfree(entrada) | | | | entrada = entrada-&gt;siguiente| ==&gt; Sucede UAF y la entrada ahora se vuelve NULL (o podr\u00eda ser cualquier cosa). | | entrada-&gt;acci\u00f3n | ==&gt; Acceder a la entrada puede causar p\u00e1nico. Para solucionar este problema, estamos convirtiendo todos los kmalloc que se llaman dentro de la secci\u00f3n cr\u00edtica del lado de lectura de RCU para usar GFP_ATOMIC.
