CVE-2021-46921 (GCVE-0-2021-46921)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2024-02-27 09:36 – Updated: 2026-08-05 08:45

Title

locking/qrwlock: Fix ordering in queued_write_lock_slowpath()

Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: locking/qrwlock: Fix ordering in queued_write_lock_slowpath() While this code is executed with the wait_lock held, a reader can acquire the lock without holding wait_lock. The writer side loops checking the value with the atomic_cond_read_acquire(), but only truly acquires the lock when the compare-and-exchange is completed successfully which isn’t ordered. This exposes the window between the acquire and the cmpxchg to an A-B-A problem which allows reads following the lock acquisition to observe values speculatively before the write lock is truly acquired. We've seen a problem in epoll where the reader does a xchg while holding the read lock, but the writer can see a value change out from under it. Writer | Reader -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ep_scan_ready_list() | |- write_lock_irq() | |- queued_write_lock_slowpath() | |- atomic_cond_read_acquire() | | read_lock_irqsave(&ep->lock, flags); --> (observes value before unlock) | chain_epi_lockless() | | epi->next = xchg(&ep->ovflist, epi); | | read_unlock_irqrestore(&ep->lock, flags); | | | atomic_cmpxchg_relaxed() | |-- READ_ONCE(ep->ovflist); | A core can order the read of the ovflist ahead of the atomic_cmpxchg_relaxed(). Switching the cmpxchg to use acquire semantics addresses this issue at which point the atomic_cond_read can be switched to use relaxed semantics. [peterz: use try_cmpxchg()]

              "value": "AV:L - The bug is in queued_write_lock_slowpath() for rwlock_t; the demonstrated path is local epoll_wait \u2192 ep_send_events \u2192 ep_done_scan \u2192 write_lock_irq(), which requires local syscall access rather than network or physical reachability.\nAC:L - An unprivileged attacker can drive both sides of the race (epoll_wait as writer and concurrent fd events triggering ep_poll_callback as reader), forcing lock contention into the slowpath; Amazon observed this ordering failure in production on ARM, so success is not dependent on victim-controlled conditions.\nPR:L - epoll_create/epoll_ctl/epoll_wait and ordinary process activity that take rwlocks are available to unprivileged local users with no capabilities or user-namespace privilege escalation required.\nUI:N - Exploitation requires only attacker-controlled threads and file descriptors; no separate victim action such as mounting a filesystem or opening a crafted file is needed.\nS:U - Impact remains within the host kernel\u0027s privilege boundary (incorrect mutual exclusion and resulting memory/state corruption), with no VM-escape or other cross-authority scope change.\nC:H - Missing acquire semantics let a writer observe shared kernel state before the write lock is truly held, so protected structures (e.g. ep-\u003eovflist and any other rwlock-guarded data) can be read incorrectly; as a generic rwlock break this enables broad kernel info disclosure via corrupted/racy structure access.\nI:H - The writer then mutates state based on that stale view (e.g. ep_done_scan writing EP_UNACTIVE_PTR over an overflow chain it missed), and broken write-lock exclusivity on widely used rwlocks such as tasklist_lock can corrupt kernel pointer-rich structures, enabling integrity loss and control-flow primitives.\nA:H - Data races from broken qrwlock acquire on structures protected by rwlock_t (epoll lists, tasklist, and others on ARM64/Android) can yield list corruption, use-after-free, and kernel oops/panic under attacker-triggered contention."

Detection rules are retrieved from Rulezet.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
