jira VULN-3183 cve CVE-2023-5178 commit-author Sagi Grimberg <sagi@grimberg.me> commit d920abd From Alon: "Due to a logical bug in the NVMe-oF/TCP subsystem in the Linux kernel, a malicious user can cause a UAF and a double free, which may lead to RCE (may also lead to an LPE in case the attacker already has local privileges)." Hence, when a queue initialization fails after the ahash requests are allocated, it is guaranteed that the queue removal async work will be called, hence leave the deallocation to the queue removal. Also, be extra careful not to continue processing the socket, so set queue rcv_state to NVMET_TCP_RECV_ERR upon a socket error.

…'async' JIRA: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-87766 Upstream Status: merged into the linux.git commit 4ebd9a5 Author: Kanchana P Sridhar <kanchana.p.sridhar@intel.com> Date: Sat Dec 21 14:07:07 2024 -0800 crypto: iaa - Fix IAA disabling that occurs when sync_mode is set to 'async' With the latest mm-unstable, setting the iaa_crypto sync_mode to 'async' causes crypto testmgr.c test_acomp() failure and dmesg call traces, and zswap being unable to use 'deflate-iaa' as a compressor: echo async > /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/sync_mode [ 255.271030] zswap: compressor deflate-iaa not available [ 369.960673] INFO: task cryptomgr_test:4889 blocked for more than 122 seconds.

With 'async', iaa_crypto calls to compress/decompress submit the descriptor and return -EINPROGRESS, without any mechanism in the driver to poll for completions. Hence callers such as test_acomp() in crypto/testmgr.c or zswap, that wrap the calls to crypto_acomp_compress() and crypto_acomp_decompress() in synchronous wrappers, will block indefinitely. Even before zswap can notice this problem, the crypto testmgr.c's test_acomp() will fail and prevent registration of "deflate-iaa" as a valid crypto acomp algorithm, thereby disallowing the use of "deflate-iaa" as a zswap compress (zswap will fall-back to the default compressor in this case). To fix this issue, this patch modifies the iaa_crypto sync_mode set function to treat 'async' equivalent to 'sync', so that the correct and only supported driver async polling without interrupts implementation is enabled, and zswap can use 'deflate-iaa' as the compressor. Hence, with this patch, this is what will happen: echo async > /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/sync_mode cat /sys/bus/dsa/drivers/crypto/sync_mode sync There are no crypto/testmgr.c test_acomp() errors, no call traces and zswap can use 'deflate-iaa' without any errors. The iaa_crypto documentation has also been updated to mention this caveat with 'async' and what to expect with this fix. True iaa_crypto async polling without interrupts is enabled in patch "crypto: iaa - Implement batch_compress(), batch_decompress() API in iaa_crypto." [1] which is under review as part of the "zswap IAA compress batching" patch-series [2]. Until this is merged, we would appreciate it if this current patch can be considered for a hotfix.
