🛡️ CVE-2024-56585 on Ubuntu — linux-allwinner-5.19
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: LoongArch: Fix sleeping in atomic context for PREEMPT_RT Commit bab1c299f3945ffe79 ("LoongArch: Fix sleeping in atomic context in setup_tlb_handler()") changes the gfp flag from GFP_KERNEL to GFP_ATOMIC for alloc_pages_node(). However, for PREEMPT_RT kernels we can still get a "sleeping in atomic context" error: [ 0.372259] BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/spinlock_rt.c:48 [ 0.372266] in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 1, non_block: 0, pid: 0, name: swapper/1 [ 0.372268] preempt_count: 1, expected: 0 [ 0.372270] RCU nest depth: 1, expected: 1 [ 0.372272] 3 locks held by swapper/1/0: [ 0.372274] #0: 900000000c9f5e60 (&pcp->lock){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: get_page_from_freelist+0x524/0x1c60 [ 0.372294] #1: 90000000087013b8 (rcu_read_lock){....}-{1:3}, at: rt_spin_trylock+0x50/0x140 [ 0.372305] #2: 900000047fffd388 (&zone->lock){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: __rmqueue_pcplist+0x30c/0xea0 [ 0.372314] irq event stamp: 0 [ 0.372316] hardirqs last enabled at (0): [<0000000000000000>] 0x0 [ 0.372322] hardirqs last disabled at (0): [<9000000005947320>] copy_process+0x9c0/0x26e0 [ 0.372329] softirqs last enabled at (0): [<9000000005947320>] copy_process+0x9c0/0x26e0 [ 0.372335] softirqs last disabled at (0): [<0000000000000000>] 0x0 [ 0.372341] CPU: 1 UID: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/1 Not tainted 6.12.0-rc7+ #1891 [ 0.372346] Hardware name: Loongson Loongson-3A5000-7A1000-1w-CRB/Loongson-LS3A5000-7A1000-1w-CRB, BIOS vUDK2018-LoongArch-V2.0.0-prebeta9 10/21/2022 [ 0.372349] Stack : 0000000000000089 9000000005a0db9c 90000000071519c8 9000000100388000 [ 0.372486] 900000010038b890 0000000000000000 900000010038b898 9000000007e53788 [ 0.372492] 900000000815bcc8 900000000815bcc0 900000010038b700 0000000000000001 [ 0.372498] 0000000000000001 4b031894b9d6b725 00000000055ec000 9000000100338fc0 [ 0.372503] 00000000000000c4 0000000000000001 000000000000002d 0000000000000003 [ 0.372509] 0000000000000030 0000000000000003 00000000055ec000 0000000000000003 [ 0.372515] 900000000806d000 9000000007e53788 00000000000000b0 0000000000000004 [ 0.372521] 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 900000000c9f5f10 0000000000000000 [ 0.372526] 90000000076f12d8 9000000007e53788 9000000005924778 0000000000000000 [ 0.372532] 00000000000000b0 0000000000000004 0000000000000000 0000000000070000 [ 0.372537] ...

Fix it by disabling NUMA optimization completely for PREEMPT_RT kernels.
Distribution advisory
This page covers CVE-2024-56585 as tracked by Ubuntu, for the package linux-allwinner-5.19. No fixed version has been recorded for this distribution yet.
How this vulnerability can be exploited
This issue can be reached with local access to the system, attack complexity is low, an attacker needs low-level privileges on the target. No user interaction is required. The scope is unchanged, so the impact stays within the vulnerable component. Rated impact: confidentiality none, integrity none, availability high.
CVSS metrics in full
The score comes from this vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
- Attack vector: Local — a local account, shell or session on the host is needed.
- Attack complexity: Low — the attack works reliably, with no preparation.
- Privileges required: Low — an ordinary user account is enough.
- User interaction: None — nobody has to be tricked into anything.
- Scope: Unchanged — the damage stays inside the vulnerable component.
- Confidentiality impact: None.
- Integrity impact: None.
- Availability impact: High — total loss, or loss the attacker controls.
