CVE-2025-38717 (GCVE-0-2025-38717)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2025-09-04 15:33 – Updated: 2026-08-05 12:04

Title

net: kcm: Fix race condition in kcm_unattach()

Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: kcm: Fix race condition in kcm_unattach() syzbot found a race condition when kcm_unattach(psock) and kcm_release(kcm) are executed at the same time. kcm_unattach() is missing a check of the flag kcm->tx_stopped before calling queue_work(). If the kcm has a reserved psock, kcm_unattach() might get executed between cancel_work_sync() and unreserve_psock() in kcm_release(), requeuing kcm->tx_work right before kcm gets freed in kcm_done(). Remove kcm->tx_stopped and replace it by the less error-prone disable_work_sync().

Severity

No network-facing service parses attacker data on this path.\nAC:L - The attacker controls both sides of the race, running `kcm_release()` in one thread while a second thread issues `SIOCKCMUNATTACH` on the reserved psock, and can retry the loop indefinitely until the window between `cancel_work_sync()` and `unreserve_psock()` is hit. syzbot hit it repeatedly with three separate reproducers, and `CONFIG_AF_KCM` is shipped as a module by major distributions.\nPR:L - There is not a single `capable()` or `CAP_NET_ADMIN` check in `net/kcm/`, and the protocol family autoloads on an unprivileged `socket(AF_KCM, ...)` call via `MODULE_ALIAS_NETPROTO(PF_KCM)`. Any local unprivileged user can attach a TCP socket and trigger the race.\nUI:N - The attacker performs every step \u2014 socket creation, attach, unattach, and close \u2014 from its own threads. No victim action or cooperation is required.\nS:U - The use-after-free corrupts kernel heap memory within the same kernel security authority; there is no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary crossed.\nC:H - The freed `struct kcm_sock` is reachable from a workqueue and is reallocatable by the attacker (its own slab cache, refillable simply by creating more KCM sockets), so the UAF yields a read primitive over adjacent/reused kernel objects and can leak arbitrary kernel memory.\nI:H - Queueing work on a freed object makes the workqueue write into freed memory, and `kcm_tx_work()` subsequently operates on attacker-groomed contents, culminating in the indirect call `sk-\u003esk_write_space(sk)` in `kcm_write_msgs()` \u2014 a control-flow hijack / arbitrary-write path, not just corruption.\nA:H - Even unexploited, running `lock_sock()` and `kcm_write_msgs()` on a freed `kcm_sock` produces a KASAN-reported use-after-free, workqueue list corruption, and kernel oops/panic, which any unprivileged user can trigger repeatedly."

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.
