Severity
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: isotp: fix tx.buf use-after-free in isotp_sendmsg()
isotp_sendmsg() uses only cmpxchg() on so->tx.state to serialize access
to so->tx.buf. isotp_release() waits for ISOTP_IDLE via
wait_event_interruptible() and then calls kfree(so->tx.buf).
If a signal interrupts the wait_event_interruptible() inside close()
while tx.state is ISOTP_SENDING, the loop exits early and release
proceeds to force ISOTP_SHUTDOWN and continues to kfree(so->tx.buf)
while sendmsg may still be reading so->tx.buf for the final CAN frame
in isotp_fill_dataframe().
The so->tx.buf can be allocated once when the standard tx.buf length needs
to be extended. Move the kfree() of this potentially extended tx.buf to
sk_destruct time when either isotp_sendmsg() and isotp_release() are done.
