Title
tcp: add sanity checks to rx zerocopy
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tcp: add sanity checks to rx zerocopy TCP rx zerocopy intent is to map pages initially allocated from NIC drivers, not pages owned by a fs. This patch adds to can_map_frag() these additional checks: - Page must not be a compound one. - page->mapping must be NULL. This fixes the panic reported by ZhangPeng. syzbot was able to loopback packets built with sendfile(), mapping pages owned by an ext4 file to TCP rx zerocopy. r3 = socket$inet_tcp(0x2, 0x1, 0x0) mmap(&(0x7f0000ff9000/0x4000)=nil, 0x4000, 0x0, 0x12, r3, 0x0) r4 = socket$inet_tcp(0x2, 0x1, 0x0) bind$inet(r4, &(0x7f0000000000)={0x2, 0x4e24, @multicast1}, 0x10) connect$inet(r4, &(0x7f00000006c0)={0x2, 0x4e24, @empty}, 0x10) r5 = openat$dir(0xffffffffffffff9c, &(0x7f00000000c0)='./file0\x00', 0x181e42, 0x0) fallocate(r5, 0x0, 0x0, 0x85b8) sendfile(r4, r5, 0x0, 0x8ba0) getsockopt$inet_tcp_TCP_ZEROCOPY_RECEIVE(r4, 0x6, 0x23, &(0x7f00000001c0)={&(0x7f0000ffb000/0x3000)=nil, 0x3000, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0}, &(0x7f0000000440)=0x40) r6 = openat$dir(0xffffffffffffff9c, &(0x7f00000000c0)='./file0\x00', 0x181e42, 0x0)

              "value": "AV:L - Triggering requires local syscalls on the attacker\u0027s own process \u2014 mmap() of a TCP socket, sendfile() of a page-cache-backed file over loopback, and getsockopt(TCP_ZEROCOPY_RECEIVE). A purely remote peer cannot supply page-cache or compound pages into the receive frags, since those come from the local NIC/page_pool allocator.\nAC:L - The syzbot reproducer is fully deterministic with no race window and no dependence on memory layout: sendfile() guarantees PAGE_SIZE frags at offset 0 pointing at ext4 page-cache pages, and loopback delivers them unchanged to the same socket\u0027s receive queue. Follow-on inode eviction is likewise triggered on demand by the attacker via O_TRUNC/unlink+close.\nPR:L - Every step is available to an ordinary unprivileged user \u2014 tcp_mmap() performs no capability check, TCP_ZEROCOPY_RECEIVE is unconditionally compiled in under CONFIG_MMU, and sendfile() on a file the user owns needs no privilege. No CAP_NET_ADMIN or namespace trickery is required at all.\nUI:N - A single unprivileged process performs the entire sequence against itself via a loopback self-connect; no victim process must be running, and no administrator or user action is needed.\nS:U - The corruption is confined to the kernel\u0027s own page-cache/rmap accounting and the attacking process\u0027s address space, managed by the same security authority. There is no crossing of a VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary.\nC:H - Because the page is mapped outside the inode\u0027s i_mmap tree, filemap_unaccount_folio()\u0027s recovery path resets mapcount and subtracts the PTE\u0027s reference, letting the page be freed and reallocated while the attacker retains a valid read-only PTE to it \u2014 an arbitrary-read window into whatever kernel data (slab objects, page tables, other processes\u0027 pages) subsequently occupies that physical page.\nI:H - The dropped reference plus the later munmap-time page_remove_rmap()/put_page() drives _mapcount and the page refcount negative, producing a double-free of a buddy-allocator page that can be handed out twice and used as a write primitive into kernel-owned memory. The mismatched rmap/_nr_pages_mapped accounting for compound folios corrupts kernel state directly.\nA:H - This is exactly the reported crash \u2014 truncating the file makes filemap_unaccount_folio() hit VM_BUG_ON_FOLIO(folio_mapped(folio)) and panic the kernel; on non-DEBUG_VM builds it produces \"BUG: Bad page cache\"/bad-page-state taints and freelist corruption that destabilizes the whole system."

A purely remote peer cannot supply page-cache or compound pages into the receive frags, since those come from the local NIC/page_pool allocator.\nAC:L - The syzbot reproducer is fully deterministic with no race window and no dependence on memory layout: sendfile() guarantees PAGE_SIZE frags at offset 0 pointing at ext4 page-cache pages, and loopback delivers them unchanged to the same socket\u0027s receive queue. Follow-on inode eviction is likewise triggered on demand by the attacker via O_TRUNC/unlink+close.\nPR:L - Every step is available to an ordinary unprivileged user \u2014 tcp_mmap() performs no capability check, TCP_ZEROCOPY_RECEIVE is unconditionally compiled in under CONFIG_MMU, and sendfile() on a file the user owns needs no privilege. No CAP_NET_ADMIN or namespace trickery is required at all.\nUI:N - A single unprivileged process performs the entire sequence against itself via a loopback self-connect; no victim process must be running, and no administrator or user action is needed.\nS:U - The corruption is confined to the kernel\u0027s own page-cache/rmap accounting and the attacking process\u0027s address space, managed by the same security authority. There is no crossing of a VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary.\nC:H - Because the page is mapped outside the inode\u0027s i_mmap tree, filemap_unaccount_folio()\u0027s recovery path resets mapcount and subtracts the PTE\u0027s reference, letting the page be freed and reallocated while the attacker retains a valid read-only PTE to it \u2014 an arbitrary-read window into whatever kernel data (slab objects, page tables, other processes\u0027 pages) subsequently occupies that physical page.\nI:H - The dropped reference plus the later munmap-time page_remove_rmap()/put_page() drives _mapcount and the page refcount negative, producing a double-free of a buddy-allocator page that can be handed out twice and used as a write primitive into kernel-owned memory. The mismatched rmap/_nr_pages_mapped accounting for compound folios corrupts kernel state directly.\nA:H - This is exactly the reported crash \u2014 truncating the file makes filemap_unaccount_folio() hit VM_BUG_ON_FOLIO(folio_mapped(folio)) and panic the kernel; on non-DEBUG_VM builds it produces \"BUG: Bad page cache\"/bad-page-state taints and freelist corruption that destabilizes the whole system."

Drag nodes to arrange them. Double-click a related vulnerability to open it, or a source to visit its link. The Physics button on the left tunes the layout and the simulation; the legend at the bottom left hides or shows nodes by kind and by sighting type.

Forecast uses a logistic model when the trend is rising, or an exponential decay model when the trend is falling. Fitted via linearized least squares.

Nomenclature

  • Seen: The vulnerability was mentioned, discussed, or observed by the user.
  • Confirmed: The vulnerability has been validated from an analyst's perspective.
  • Published Proof of Concept: A public proof of concept is available for this vulnerability.
  • Exploited: The vulnerability was observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
  • Patched: The vulnerability was observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.
  • Not exploited: The vulnerability was not observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
  • Not confirmed: The user expressed doubt about the validity of the vulnerability.
  • Not patched: The vulnerability was not observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.

How durations are calculated

Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.

Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.
